Abstract
The purpose of the study was to determine if students' attitude towards online teaching and learning (T&L) mediate the relationship between perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, and intention to adopt only T&L in South Africa. The institutions of higher learning were forced to adopt the online teaching model in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic regulations that inhibited people from moving around, including visitation to their workplace. Students were also not allowed to visit their campuses, but had to stay and learn online, at home. To achieve the objectives of the study, a quantitative survey was adopted, and data was collected from 112 students registered with a distance learning institution in South Africa. The results of the study show students' attitude mediates the relationship between perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and their intention to adopt online T&L.
