Questionnaire Analysis for Improvement of Student’s Interaction in Tesys e-Learning Platform

Journal Title: Revista Romana de Interactiune Om-Calculator - Year 2017, Vol 10, Issue 1

Abstract

This paper presents an extension of a previously conducted study that aims to reveal usability problems of specific functionalities. The current study also uses Tesys e-Learning platform as our study environment, therefore we made several improvements on the survey and extended the audience of the study. The main problem with the first study was the small number of students that filled the questionnaire. The current study uses a survey that was available for all the students enrolled in two long-distance programs. We used the newly designed questionnaire to find how students perceive the ease of use and usefulness of a large number of features available to students. Experimental results show a good general acceptance of technology due to the general average grade of answers and detailed interpretation of results for statistical Wilcoxon test. Several limitations in perceived usability were observed in functionalities like finding chapters, finding homework or understanding question’s text when groups were divided based on reported number of hours that were spent online. Redesigning the interface for these specific functionalities and reevaluation of usability may have further a great impact on a better acceptance of Tesys e-Learning platform.
