dc.descriptionDistance learning increases access to learning opportunities for people in different geographical areas, ages and different learning capabilities. Learning management system (LMS) is a web-based technology used as a tool in distance education to manage, implement, and access online learning and teaching with varying levels of support structures provided to students in a learning programme. There is a need for an evaluation approach to measure the success of distance learning technology among learners. Hence, the objectives of this study are: 1) to investigate user acceptance of using LMS; 2) to develop an evaluation model to examine the success of the LMS in distance learning; and 3) to develop a DLMS prototype. Purposive sampling technique was used to gather data from users in four universities which offer distance learning programmes and use LMS in their distance learning process. The used instrument adapted three sets of questionnaires taken from the literature. The total number of respondents was 425 students. SPSS version 17 was used to analyse data on user acceptance and LMS requirements while AMOS 18 was used to validate the proposed model. The findings of the survey indicate high acceptance level of use of LMS in distance learning programmes. Evaluation of DLMS is important to ensure effective implementation and positive impact on distance learning delivery. A review of information system (IS), quality assurance (QA) and critical success factors (CSF) evaluation studies indicates that improvement of the current LMS is required. Therefore, a new evaluation framework, Educational Technology Evaluation Model (EduTEM) was formulated based on the IS models, QA and CSF of educational technology in distance learning settings. EduTEM includes three dimensions: Quality of Technology (system quality, service quality, information quality, usefulness and ease of use) which are independent variables, Usage (intention to use and user satisfaction) and Net Benefit, which are dependent variables. In order to validate the EduTEM, path analysis was used and revealed that quality of technology has a significant impact on user satisfaction and intention to use the LMS. This study found that intention to use and user satisfaction influenced the net benefit. Furthermore, this study showed significant correlation (> 0.5) between the independent variables. The overall fit for the EduTEM is very good (CMIN/DF =1.057 and p-value = 0.383). For the third objective, users needs were gathered using a set of requirements questionnaire. Findings suggest new system features such as plagiarism checker, Short Message Service (SMS), online survey, online journal and Really Simple Syndication (RSS). These requirements were implemented in a DLMS prototype, which was then heuristically evaluated by six panel experts. Findings showed that the DLMS prototype satisfied user requirements. The main contributions of this research are the EduTEM which can be used to evaluate any educational technology tool, and the design of DLMS prototype.,Certification of Master's / Doctoral Thesis" is not available-
