Abstract :

This study aims to analysis appropriat components an qualifizing e-learning for present conceptual model. A mixed methodology comprising the documentary, analytical, descriptive survey, and heuristic methods was implemented. During the qualitative stage, the background and previous studies were examined and the open codes extraction and the data organization were conducted through a coding method. To assess the viability of the components, the delphi technique was used for extracting 3 categories, 17 criteria, and 160 statements. Subsequently, the conceptual model was proposed. In the quantitative stage, the selected statistical population comprised the faculty members of PNU. Using the Cochran method, 360 members of this statistical population were selected, and, upon ascertaining the content and face validity, the researcher’s questionnaire was completed by the sample population members. The construct validity of the instrument described a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.769, thus establishing the reliability of the instrument. the evaluate proposed model via softwar PLS indicated 0/8338 Cronbach's alpha. The joint reliability variable of value (AVE) more and (CR) greater than 0.7 and (AVE) is greater than 0.5 is therefore acceptable validity and reliability. Fornell and Larkr divergent validity proves that is acceptable. Value (GOF) pattern is equal 0.40,which indicates a good agreement as well as fitting was found to exist between the proposed model and the actual data.
