Author : Chin Ting (Emily) Chou, Hong-Jin Lu

Abstract :E-learning has become a global trend in education, fueled by advancements in information and communication technologies. In the United States, over 7 million higher education students are enrolled in online courses (Statista, 2023). Taiwan has actively promoted e-learning since 1998 through initiatives like the "National Information and Communication Infrastructure Development Plan," supported by high broadband penetration exceeding 90% in Taiwanese households (Taiwan Network Information Center, 2023). E-learning has transformed higher education by offering flexibility and diverse learning options, fostering innovation in course content, and enhancing teacher student interactions. The objectives of this research include: 1. Exploring university students’ overall satisfaction with e-learning courses. 2. Comparing differences in satisfaction based on various attributes and motivational factors. 3. Analyzing the impact of e-learning on teaching strategies and interaction models. This study examined university students' satisfaction with asynchronous e-learning courses in 2023. It explores how personal attributes (e.g., gender, program type) and learning attitudes impact satisfaction and investigates how e-learning influences teaching strategies and interaction models. The research aims to provide insights for improving e learning course designs, sharing resources, and enhancing teaching innovation, ultimately improving students' learning experiences and education quality.

Keywords :E-learning, online education, student satisfaction, higher education, teaching strategies, interaction models, learning attitudes, digital learning, educational technology, course design.
