| Popis: | In developing nations such as Ghana, traditional face-to-face (F2F) mode of education is challenged when physical classroom (academic) resources are not available for all students in a particular tertiary institution. Globally, education modes have improved through learning management systems (LMSs) as a result of technological advancements. Accra Technical University (ATU) in Ghana is currently facing the problem of turning away qualified applicants due to the fact that the academic resources in ATU are not enough to accommodate all qualified applicants. Using a quantitative research instrument (questionnaire) in accordance to the five-point Likert scale and components of the technology acceptance model (TAM) framework, this paper tackled the problem above by proposing and developing an LMS to support the education of students in ATU. Analytical results of data responses from 200 lecturers and 16 students in ATU, showed that majority of these stakeholders are willing to embrace technology and the developed LMS in ATU. |
