This study evaluates the experience and readiness of tourism undergraduate students for adopting e-learning in governmental universities of Egypt. The study employs the deductive approach using quantitative method and uses a questionnaire form to evaluate internet efficacy, communication self-efficacy, computer anxiety and institutional support relevant to student's readiness of e-learning. Collecting data from a random sample of 1757 students, the findings revealed positive attitudes of students toward e-learning experience. The present study provides useful implications to policy-makers in tourism and hospitality education in Egypt and other developing countries in order to develop the e-learning experience. | ||||
