Conceptual Model Designed to Evaluate the Interaction in Electronic Higher Education System of Iran

Abstract

The aim of this study is to provide a conceptual model to assess the interaction of the electronic system of higher education in Iran. In this regard, two general questions raised and during the various stages of research it was attempted to be answered these questions: First question, the conceptual model for evaluating the interaction in Electronic higher education system of Iran what are the factors and components? Second; whether factors and components of the model are suitable for the measurement of target structures? Methods based on the objective of applied research and also based on the method data collection is descriptive. The study population consisted of all teachers and students of higher education electronic institutions of Iran that teaching and studying in the academic year 2014-2015 which among them, 620 people and the snowball sampling method has been selected as the sample. Collect information and respond to the first question from the study library and to respond to the second question from the questionnaire is used and the information collected were analyzed using the software Amos. After passing the various stages, model 3-factors - include; Status of network infrastructure, Status means and interactive tools as well as Status barriers using the interactive tools were extracted. According to this model each factor has two components, and each component can be evaluated using several criteria. The output of Amos analysis for each of the measurement structures, indicate that the conceptual model and all the models measurement, was appropriate to evaluate structure and can measure it entirely.
