The COVID-19 global epidemic has compelled higher education institutions to reconsider their teaching methods. Because of this public health emergency, universities in higher education have adopted e-learning techniques as a solution to face-to-face education. Thus, e-learning has emerged as a critical technology in education at higher education institutions. Nonetheless, the effectiveness of e-learning systems is largely dependent on students' adoption of such systems. The study aims to evaluate the usefulness of task-technology fit (TTF) with the information system success model (ISSM) in perceiving students' adoption of e-learning with the goal of encouraging them to adopt e-learning in the context of higher education. The study employed a quantitative approach, and a theoretical model was evaluated with proposed hypotheses to find the relationships between the constructs. A questionnaire based on TTF and ISSM was distributed among the students, and 260 valid responses were received using a sample random sampling technique. Data was analyzed with the help of SPSS and Partial Least Squares-Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). After analyzing the data, it was found that perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, system use, and task technology fit of e-learning are positively and significantly influenced by system quality, information quality, perceived enjoyment, technology characteristics, and task characteristics. The results of TTF and ISSM on system use show a positive effect on e-learning benefits in educational institutions, with all male and female students completely satisfied with the use of e-learning systems. As a result, we advise students to use e-learning systems for educational purposes and should have motivated them to do so through lecturers at higher-level educational institutions.
