Abstract—In the context of emergency remote teaching, this
study proposes a conceptual model that examines (1) the
relationship between perceived quality and learner satisfaction
with an e-Learning service in pandemic situation and (2) to test
the moderating role of co-production of this service on this
relationship. The study was conducted among 338 Tunisian
students who took online classes during the second wave of
COVID-19. The research uses of structural equations method
(AMOS 21) to test the direct relationship and the Hayes process
for the moderation test. The results show that the direct
relationship between perceived quality and online learner
satisfaction is significant and positive and that this relationship
is positively moderated by co-production. Practical implications
have finally been identified in order to improve the success of
online education especially in the case of a crisis.
Index Terms—E-learning, perceived quality, satisfaction,
co-production.
