Abstract

The growth and widespread acceptance of the Internet has led to the creation of Virtual Learning Environments (VLE). To facilitate the integration of VAS from a pedagogical perspective, new technologies should be assessed in an effort to establish whether their introduction has had a beneficial effect on learning outcomes. This research examines middle school students' perceptions of a range of components of VET. The Online Assessment and Opportunity for Improvement in Academic Performance components have the lowest acceptance rates.
