Facilitating Condition for E-learning Adoption—Case of Ugandan Universities

Abstract

Integration of technology and education has created dramatic and lasting impact on education provision and consumption and thus a paradigm shift from conventional means to modern education supported by technology. The concept of e-learning is not new in Uganda, but its implementation and integration in the education processes is worth noting, and efforts to that effect have not gone without challenges. Ugandan universities have implemented e-learning as means to increase student enrollment, access and quality of education. This paper adopted a cross sectional explorative research approach to present the challenges encountered and proposes facilitating conditions for smoother e-learning implementation based on the UTAUT model. The outcome of the paper is a modified UTAUT model.
