Test the Effect of Perceived Satisfaction, Motivation and Anxiety on Second Life Environment in Distance Learning Model: Structural Equation Modeling

The main purpose of the present study is to predict the relationship between
motivation , anxiety, perceived satisfaction and Second Life within asynchronous
learning environment specifically in EFL course. Data of the present study were
collected from undergraduate students - Sudan University of Technology and
Science (SUST) in Sudan. The Questionnaire was conducted manually.
Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) Version 16 and SPSS Version 11.5 were
used. A hypothesized model was tested for model fit in the present study. The
convergent validity and discriminant validity were conducted. The exogenous
variables showed that Motivation was positively and significantly related to
anxiety statistically level was 0.29 and Motivation was positively and
significantly related to second life statistically level was 0.32 , anxiety positively
and significantly related to Second Life statistically level was 0,25 whereas,
perceived satisfaction was excluded in this study because did not satisfy
statistical requirement. Therefore, the study was conducted in asynchronous
learning environment, particularly in EFL course which is offered to
undergraduate students at Deanship of Distance Education - Sudan University
of Technology and Science (SUST) - Sudan.
