This study aims to explore the factors influencing the adoption of e-learning platforms in biology education and examine the impact of online learning on students’ performance. This study investigates the relationships between perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attitude toward e-learning, flexibility, content quality, and students’ behavioral intention to adopt e-learning activities. A mixed-methods approach was employed consisting of two phases: a questionnaire survey with structural equation modeling (SEM) to analyze data and an experiment with an independent sample t-test to assess the impact of online learning on student performance. Findings disclosed that perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attitude toward e-learning, flexibility, and content quality positively impacted students’ behavioral intention to adopt e-learning and their performance. This study contributes to the theoretical understanding of the factors influencing e-learning adoption in biology education. Practical recommendations are provided for educators, instructional designers, and policymakers to facilitate the implementation of e-learning platforms in biology education. These recommendations include promoting the perceived usefulness and ease of use of e-learning platforms, fostering a positive attitude toward e-learning, enhancing flexibility, ensuring high-quality content, providing training and support for educators, and considering the needs of students with disabilities.

“…Moreover, there is no exception in a higher education institution that always urges the creation of innovations as daily activities. Integrating communication into a reliable and dependable information system will make it easier for any HEIs staff to make Higher education innovation creation decisions and facilitate the development and competitiveness of an organization (Alrawi and Jaber, 2008;Pinho and Franco, 2017). A higher education institution will have a comparative advantage compared to other institutions (Wang and Ahmed, 2004).…”

PurposeThis study responds to the need for further research to examine determinants that impact innovation creation in higher education institutions.Design/methodology/approachThe study is a quantitative analysis; it uses 133 responses derived from respondents from several universities in Indonesia. The data are analyzed by using SEM-PLS. In the analysis, after having the inner model, then, the outer model is calculated. The research establishes a 95% confidence interval and conducts 500 bootstraps.FindingsThe results of this study indicate, firstly, the business and university partnerships, entrepreneurship orientation, and information technology facilities significantly influence innovation creation; secondly, measuring the impact in universities will strengthen the business and university partnerships, entrepreneurship orientation, and information technology facilities on the innovation creation.Research limitations/implicationsThis research implies that universities need to measure the impact and develop a proper measurement to enhance innovation through their relationship with their industrial partnerships and information technology facilities. However, the research has a limitation; the study is only conducted in state universities.Practical implicationsThe research measures the impact of the university–business partnership, entrepreneurship orientation, and IT facility. These determinants' effectiveness needs a measurement scheme to improve the innovation creation outputs, quantity, and quality.Originality/valueUniversities have an essential role in developing entrepreneurship competence for students and staff by nurturing innovation creation. It will benefit the staff in managing tasks and the students after they graduate to create businesses. This study aims to provide an in-depth analysis of determinants that affect innovation creation in higher education institutions in Indonesia.

A university, which is the main form of higher education institution (HEI), aims to develop and promote education, generate academic excellence and transfer academic knowledge to solve social problems. To enhance the innovation creation in universities, the relevant factors that affect such creation should be investigated. Hence, this study aims to investigate the critical factors that affect research and innovation creation in public universities in Thailand. The relevant literature was reviewed and research was conducted using a qualitative research approach. Data were collected from in-depth interviews of 11 executives purposely selected from 8 frontier public universities in Thailand. The data were analysed using NVivo qualitative research software. Results revealed 15 critical factors in the following descending order: resource, goal, database and information technology, working environment, managerial process, policy, network, organisational structure, human resource management, government support, strategy, compensation, organisation culture, vision and leader factor. Moreover, results identified the issues that should be addressed.
