Abstract

This research aims to study the impact of e-learning on developing students' motivation to complete their education: a systematic study on students of the College of Management at Mid-Ocean University. The research also aims to analyze and identify the aspects that affect students' motivation and motivation under e-learning systems, and to identify the items and standards that can contribute to improving the e-learning experience in general and at Mid-Ocean University in particular. The research community and sample consisted of (3010) male and female students from the College of Management at Mid-Ocean University. The research adopted the descriptive and analytical approach, by reviewing previous studies and research related to e-learning and developing and stimulating students' motivation, in addition to analyzing the components of the educational environment for students at Mid-Ocean University as a sample for the research, in order to identify the most important variables and standards that may clearly affect the development of students' motivation to complete their education. The research reached many results indicating the existence of a statistically significant effect of educational factors and students' motivation to complete their education, which confirms that the quality of lectures, discussion groups, and tests contribute to raising the level of motivation. The results also showed the existence of a strong and statistically significant direct correlation between technical factors (such as communication and interaction with platforms). And student motivation, and that (52.5%) of the change in the motivation of master’s students is due to the variable of technical factors, which makes it an influential element that must be taken into consideration in designing e-learning environments. The study also recommended the importance of improving the quality of educational content in terms of clarity of explanation and organization of lectures and discussion groups, in a way that enhances students’ understanding and motivation.
