Role of Factors and Actors for Effective Online Education

Abstract

The purpose of the study is to demonstrate the impacts of actors, such as teachers, administration, and classmates, as well as factors including website/apps/systems and supporting issues, on the dependent variable, which is the successful implementation of online education. Primary data was collected from 203 respondents using a questionnaire with 30 items divided into six constructs. Structural equation modeling using SmartPLS was applied to determine the effects of actors and factors on successful online education. The findings reveal that Website/Apps/Online System and Supporting Tools and Issues have a positive and significant impact on the Role of Teacher (RT), Role of Administration, and Role of Classmates (RC), respectively. Additionally, the RT and RC positively and significantly influence Satisfaction or Intention to continue online education. The study's originality lies in the identification of three mediation effects through structural equation modeling, which is novel within the similar category of studies.
