Sažetak
The COVID-19 pandemic has had a thought-provoking impact on
the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that were approved
by United Nations in the year 2015. Therefore, taking this very
consideration forward, this study primarily explores the impact of
COVID-19, particularly on the SDG number 4, i.e., education. Due
to the COVID-19 contagion, given the unusual and never been
experienced circumstances, educational institutions all over the
world have been forced to establish their e-learning systems practically overnight. For this purpose, we collected the relevant data
from middle school students, by using a technique known as convenience sampling. Furthermore, moving on in the same context,
we also developed an integrated model with five dimensions, i.e.,
Learner, Design, Technology, Instructor, and Environment, in order
to gauge this relationship in further detail. The empirical findings
of the step-wise multiple regression analysis revealed that the
learners’ attitude towards the computer, learners’ internet self-efficacy, usefulness, instructors’ response timelines, and the instructors’ attitude towards e-learning, positively and significantly tend
to affect the middle school student’s satisfaction with online.
Whereas, learners’ computer anxiety, ease of use, system availability, internet availability, learning climate, and interactions negatively affects the middle school students’ satisfaction. These
results imply that developing countries could possibly achieve
goal number 4 (Education) of the Sustainable Development Goals,
by improving the learner satisfaction, and further strengthening
the implementation of their E-Learning practices.
