“…It was noted that [13,14] has declared that assessing students e-readiness especially in Business study is a more promising area of evaluation, as research stream regarding e-learning has much been done, but the investigation into e-readiness of the users themselves has been very little. This represents one major motive to accomplish that research on hand, which will contribute to theory and practice by proposing a context-aware conceptual framework for appropriate measurement of e-readiness in a developing world HEIs context [15].…”

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) provide a rich integrated educational environment, which capable of changing the lives of students. The purpose of this research paper is to investigating ereadiness of the students in the affiliate Institutions of the Royal Commission in Jubail, and whether their experience in using ICTs influences their judgement towards ICTs, and whether their judgement and experience toward ICTs influence their use of ICTs or not. Survey methodology is facilitated through the use of the questionnaires. Survey domain is a random sampling of studentsin Institutions of the Royal Commission of Jubail. With a 95% confidence level of a possible sample frame of 669, the study sampled 1032 respondents (15%). Results showed that students'judgement towards ICTs is highly positive, which reflect their e-readiness and willingness to use ICTs, but the analysis showed that the experience with ICTs did not significantly predict students'judgement about ICTs use. It was discovered that the following set of ICTs requires the most attention in the future adoption planning by the Royal Commission for its three affiliate Higher education institutions (HEIs): "Blackboard", "smart devices", "e-bulletin boards", and "e-materials". This set of ICTs receives the least scores of use and experience responses from study participants.The result of this study provides valuable insights into students' e-readiness. This information may be used to develop and support factors that enhance strategies for adopting ICTs by students.
