Abstract

For universities, the role of e-learning in learning process could increase the quality of education. However, e-learning implementation need well-prepared strategic plan. It is expected that the implementation of e-learning is considered not only limited to investment and technology adoption, the use of e-learning should also be sustainable in the long term. Therefore universities need instruments and guideline in preparing all aspects towards success e-learning implementation. E-learning readiness model become the answer to direct universities in preparing the factors. E-learning readiness cannot be separated from the maturity of all factors affecting its implementation. And this research proposed a new theoretical model, ITRACT. This model not only identified factors to be prepared, but also provided a different view and a new perspective of thinking frame in determining prioritized factors in e-learning readiness. ITRACT model categorizes e-learning readiness factors into five domains and three layers based on levels of importance for universities.
