“…One of the studies [17] conducted a research with real participants, the findings are summarized as the inclusion of social networking features in existing VLEs can enhance students' participation and engagement in e-learning activities. The study [18] has also endorsed that the integration of SNS in VLEs brings benefits to learners and instructor in many areas of e-learning. Inspired by the acceptance of modern learning and social technologies in students' and the instructors' community, this paper emphasizes either to design and develop new VLE with various social and learning features or incorporate external social and learning technologies with existing e-learning environment.…”

A Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) is an accumulation of incorporated soft-ware components, empowering the administration of web-based learning (online learning, e-learning). The quality of VLE is indispensable for the accomplishment of e-learning goals and responsible to engage students during web based learning. The attributes of existing VLES does not completely meet with the requirements of today’s e-learning. Consequently, decreases students’ interest, participation and engagement with web-based e-learning. In contrast, the learners’ engagement and participation are higher in social networking sites (SNS). For this reason, many researchers believe that the inclusion of features, similar to SNSs, in VLE may in-crease its effectivity. The goal of this research article is to investigate existing e-learning platform and make a room for SNSs and online tools for e-learning. The paper proposes an integrated model to enhance existing e-learning environment by incorporating the strength of SNSs and other potential tools with VLEs. This re-search article will provide a good direction and new thoughts for the researchers of technology supported learning-domain.

“…Many studies define student academic involvement as student engagement (Johnson et al, 2015;Kim and Frick, 2011;Venugopal and Jain, 2016). Additionally, Kuh & Hu (2001) state that academic involvement is the degree to which students connect with their educational activities, and that participation is positively related to a variety of desirable outcomes, including high grades, student satisfaction, and perseverance.…”

“…Various forms of technologies are used to enhance the teaching and learning experience (Martin and Bolliger, 2018;Meyer, 2014). Literature clears that interactive lectures lead to a high level of academic involvement (Manwaring et al, 2017;Venugopal and Jain, 2016). Many studies conclude that social media can be an essential educational tool to improve academic involvement and communication between students and teachers (Greenhow et al, 2019;Selwyn and Stirling, 2016;Tess, 2013).…”

While several educational institutions in India, in accordance to global practices, have adopted Web-Based Learning Management Systems (WLMS) to supplement classroom courses, it is largely seen that these WLMSs fail in their objectives, leading to little or no return on investments. The study aims to define the factors that affect students’ acceptance of a web-based learning management system and test the moderating effect of their academic involvement in the success of a WLMS. 477 valid questionnaires were collected from university/college students to empirically test the research model using the structural equation modelling approach. The results concludes that indirect and direct effects account for 49% of the variation in the intention to use, which is explained by technical system quality, information quality, educational quality, service quality of the technical support team and user satisfaction. High academic involvement moderates the impact of different service qualities of the WLMS on user satisfaction, intention to use the system, and success of the WLMS. Based on the findings, theoretical and managerial implications are discussed.

“…While there is an expectation and/or assumption that the use of the LMS enhances the process of teaching and learning (e.g., Simanullang & Rajagukguk, 2020), the pedagogically efficient and effective use could have been overlooked. There are also issues that hinder the perceived use of the LMS in relation to engaging with students' experiences in academic practices (Venugopal & Jain, 2015), particularly within the notion of blended learning. As this article will show, one way to make LMS use more efficient and effective would be to promote the development of new learning schemas that are incorporating a high level of production leading to broadcasting/open-sharing using LMS.…”

Due to the rapid progress of the use of technologies in academic practices, higher education institutions around the world are investing heavily in various learning management systems (LMS). LMS, such as Blackboard, is considered among the most commonly used in the process of teaching and learning. This pilot study aimed to identify the academics' assumptions and expectations of Blackboard use that had influences on their practices at a New Zealand university. Data were gathered through class observation sessions with photograph and video capture as well as individual discussions for a trimester (13 weeks). Focus of the thematic analysis was on the viewpoints expressed by the academic participants on their Blackboard courses and in their discussions, as well as in their classes about their ideas, practices, and beliefs in relation to their Blackboard use. The major findings that emerged from the data were the diverse perspectives of the roles of Blackboard in the process of teaching and learning that led to the questionable use of Blackboard in terms of "efficiency" and "effectiveness". It is evident that explicit support needs to be provided to academics in order for them to understand the affordances of Blackboard and thus to use Blackboard pedagogically in the process of teaching and learning. The study advocates for a shift of Blackboard use in relation to a new understanding of teaching and learning schemas in higher education.
