“…Social presence refers to the degree to which one feels the existence of participants in communication-the psychological sensation of the other being "there" and "present" [33,34]. In view of this, the study suggests the following hypothesis.…”

Online education has become the norm for higher education institutions (HEIs) during this COVID-19 pandemics. HEIs are required to implement a fully online learning system that is structured and readily accessible with the assistance of a learning management system (LMS), including in developing countries such as the Philippines. This study aims to assess factors that positively influence the perceived satisfaction of engineering students when using the LMS during the COVID-19 pandemic in the Philippines. Additionally, it aims to integrate two models: Task Technology Fit (TTF) and Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), with added variables such as the content of the learning management system, social presence, and social space. Upon deploying the convenience sampling, a total of 1011 engineering students responded in the online survey, which consisted of 81 questions. Structural equation modeling (SEM) showed that the Task Technology Fit was positively influenced by technology, individual, and task characteristics. Moreover, behavioral intention to use LMS was positively influenced by perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Furthermore, Task Technology Fit had a significant direct effect on behavioral intention to use LMS, which subsequently led to perceived satisfaction. This study is among the first to explore factors affecting perceived satisfaction among engineering students in using the LMS in the Philippines during the COVID-19 pandemic. To evaluate the perceived satisfaction of students in using the learning management system, future works can be extended and the model can be applied in other countries.

“…Social presence theory was developed in 1976 by Short, Williams, and Christie to explain how different mediums of telecommunication affect communication (Lowenthal, 2009). Social presence is defined as the quality or state of being there between two or more communicators using a specific communication method (Calefato & Lanubile, 2010). It is the sense or belief a person has that others are both “real” and “there” in a particular environment (Dunlap et al., 2016).…”

“…It is the sense or belief a person has that others are both “real” and “there” in a particular environment (Dunlap et al., 2016). The theory posits that “media differ in the ability to convey the physiological perception that other people are physically present, due to the different ability of media to transmit visual and verbal cues (e.g., physical distance, gaze, posture, facial expressions, voice intonations, and so on)” (Calefato & Lanubile, 2010, pp. 287–288).…”

“…In turn, telephone calls have greater social presence than mediums such as email messages. In addition, some media lend themselves to establishing personal connections between people more than others and have been found to be more effective at “building and maintaining interpersonal relationships, as they involve social/personal issues and thoughts” (Calefato & Lanubile, 2010, p. 287). Media with higher degrees of social presence are also seen as warm and personal, whereas media with lower degrees of social presence are less so (Lowenthal, 2009).…”

“…Researchers have found positive correlations between social presence and learner satisfaction with online education. For example, Calefato and Lanubile (2010) state that “Social presence theory has been found to be a strong indicator of satisfaction; meaning that the higher sense of social presence conveyed by a medium, the higher the satisfaction perceived by participants when communicating” (p. 287). Researchers have also found positive correlations between social presence and perceived learning (Dunlap et al., 2016).…”
