A systematic literature review: Measuring user acceptance models in e-learning adopted in higher education institutes

Many standard models utilized to measure and understand students' and academics' perspectives on technology adoption such as the technology acceptance model (TAM) and Technology Organization Environment (TOE). Reviewing the relevant literature found many studies that investigate factors influenced (academics and students' acceptance of e-learning adoption. In this paper, a systematic review of the published studies on TAM and TOE was performed in regard to e-learning adoption in the Higher Education sector; to identify the factors that influence the students' and academics' perspectives on e-learning adoption. The main objectives to performed this systematic literature review are to be necessary for researchers by affording practical determinants to them extracting from the literature that definitely influences the (students and academics) as e-learning users, to identify the shortcomings of adopting e-learning in higher educational institutions, to identify the core elements, factors that influencing e-learning adoption and to justify whether existing models are sufficient to measure user acceptance of the adoption of new technologies. In line with that, this paper assists to confirm the needs of the literature. In conclusion, most of the selected articles in this paper have confirmed the TAM model has extended and this indicates that the TAM model is not comprehensive version hundred percent for use in e-learning. While the TOE framework is adopted and rarely extended which means it close to being a comprehensive framework and recommended.
