Abstract:Students' Perceived Service Quality (SPSQ) and Students' Satisfaction (SSAT) in Open Distance Learning (ODL) are renowned features in Higher Education (HE) field in the present-day. The vast number of research studies have addressed diverse types of variables on different grounds. The ODL students are from various family backgrounds such as cultural, social, technological skill levels, and most importantly defer from basic educational entry qualifications. This must cognize how the HE institutions are able to … Show more
“…The current study using Fornell & Larcker criterion to measure discriminant validity. The square root of the AVE for each construct should be higher than the correlation with other latent variables (Perera et al, 2017). The other measure for discriminant validity used in this study is Heterotrait-Monotrait Ratio (HTMT), with suggested minimum extraction that should be below 1.0 (Ab Hamid, Sami, Sidek, 2017).…”

“…In order to complete the analysis of the structural model, construct validity and reliability is conducted first in this study. As stated by another research (Perera, Johar, Kathibi, Atan, Abeysekera, Dharmaratne, 2017), the indicators which indicated the low-reliability score (Cronbach's Alpha and Composite Reliability <0.7) or AVE value (<0.50) were eliminated to support the validity evaluation. The eliminated indicators were PRI2, SR1, and SR2.…”

“…After analysing the measurement model, which includes constructing reliability and validity, the structural model will be assessed. The critical criteria for assessing the structural model in PLS-SEM are the significance of the path coefficients (Perera et al, 2017). The bootstrapping test is applied through SmartPLS to run the interferential analysis.…”
<p>The purpose-driven strategy has become one of the tactics used by companies as a competitive advantage to attract the market. The growing interest of sustainability and ecofriendly products can be seen among the younger consumer's behaviour, which indicated the increase of their awareness of the recent phenomena. The current study examined the effect of green marketing awareness and perceived innovation on customer's purchase intention by considering the corporate image, product image, and purchase intention as the mediator in the fast fashion industry. The quantitative research method was performed with structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) technique to examine the proposed hypothesis. A total of 307 valid responses were collected from the greater Jakarta area and tested using Smart PLS version 3. This study found that the determinants of purchase intention are social responsibility and corporate reputation. Moreover, both green marketing awareness and perceived innovation influenced corporate reputation, product image, and social responsibility. However, the product image does not influence the customer to purchase intention. The findings indicated that the customer purchase intention affected significantly by awareness of company's marketing through the social responsibility done by the company. This study provides practical implications for business to create a green marketing approach as the strategic action.</p><p> </p><p>Keywords: Green Marketing Awareness, Perceived Innovation, Social Responsibility, Product Image, Corporate Reputation, Purchase Intention</p>

“…The growing roles of advance technology in the learning field motivate researchers to understand the usefulness of such technologies in education framework. Computers, computer networks, projectors, smart boards as an example of such technologies are often employed in the form of e-learning to improve classroom activities (Bayrak & Akcam, 2017;Perera et al, 2017). All of these tools improve the student learning experience and enhance student engagement, in addition to improving the course administration and management all through the use of information and communication technologies (Tso, 2015).…”

The purpose of this study is to explore student and lecturer views of blended learning which is based upon an undergraduate courses offered at the faculty of business at Al-Balqa Applied University, which applied the blended learning approach based on the use of face to face F2F, and e-learning. The study is based on the exploratory qualitative research approach, specifically designed to identify students and lecturers' perceptions towards blended learning process, content, and ease of use. The case study data were collected through structured interviews with 40 undergraduate students who were enrolled in different courses and from 10 lecturers from the faculty of business at Al-Balqa Applied University. In comparison to the traditional face-to-face (F2F) approach, both students and lecturers found the blended learning method more flexible and preferred it over F2F in many instances. The study concludes that in general, the lectures/students’ attitudes towards BL were positive in terms of the domain process, and content. Moreover, they believe that blended learning applications are, hardly, challenging to be applied sometimes. The study also presents that, in order for graduates to meet the challenges of entering the workforce of the 21st century, blended learning should be used as a new learning strategy. Findings of this study will be beneficial for policy makers to formulate appropriate and effective policy to assist the higher education institutions. Also this study is important for university students and lecturers, as it makes them very aware of the significance of blended learning and transferable skills in the workplace. This study provides fresh insights into the context of the benefits of blended learning in Middle East, particularly in Jordan. Moreover, the higher learning institution will be capable to determine the blended learning satisfaction level amongst students and lecturers.
“…Evaluation of a service quality from the overall superiority of this service is the customer's perception of all assessments or attitudes related to service excellence (Perera et al, 2017). There are three-dimensional view of a quality of service that interaction, physical quality and the quality of the company (Quddus & Hudrasyah, 2014).…”
The development of science and technology as well as factors of ASEAN Economic Community (AEC), which is supported by an increase in industrial 4.0, the government provides an important responsibility for universities to be able to produce human resources that can compete on the era. This affects one of the colleges of polytechnics to continue to improve in terms of the quality of learning, service quality, to give effect to satisfaction with students. Related to that, conducted this study of 120 samples of student respondents to the questionnaires are processed by Structural Equation Modeling (SEM)-Partial Least Square (PLS). Based on the analysis and discussion, it can be concluded that the quality of learning and service quality has positive influence on student satisfaction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
