Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Al-Samarraie, Hosam; Selim, Hassan; Zaqout, Fahed – Interactive Learning Environments, 2016
A model is proposed to assess the effect of different content representation design principles on learners' intuitive beliefs about using e-learning. We hypothesized that the impact of the representation of course contents is mediated by the design principles of alignment, quantity, clarity, simplicity, and affordance, which influence the…
