Keywords:
VLE, Flexibility, Students and ImplicationAbstract
A virtual learning Environment (VLE) is an electronic system that can provide online interaction of various kinds that can take place between learners and tutors, including online learning. In a virtual Learning Environment (VLE) students have flexibility in their education. Students in this setting have support from online teachers and can have support at home from a parent. VLE includes web based access to class content, grades, assessments and other class tools. This study was conducted to assess the outcomes of VLE users. By using random sampling technique, a sample of 450 rural and urban users, < 2 hours and >2 hours users, < 25 years and > 25 years users was selected from Jammu district in Jammu and Kashmir State. Virtual Learning Environmental scale was prepared by the investigator to measure the outcomes of VLE users. In the present study t-test was used to find out the difference between two
means. Result of the study revealed significant difference in the rural and urban users when knowledge Quality and Identification dimension of VLE are taken as dependent variable. Result also revealed significant difference in less than 2 hours and greater than two hours users when all dimension of VLE are taken as dependent variable and result also revealed significant difference in less than 25 years and greater than 25 years users when personal outcomes Expectations, Social Interaction Ties and Identification dimensions of VLE are taken as dependent variable. This article has certain implication for both educationists and parents as well.
