The social learning network (SLN) constructed based on web 2.0 techniques demonstrates some unique characteristics comparing to traditional e-learning context based on 1.0 technique. In response to the new characteristics in SLN, we advance the theoretical understanding of user satisfaction by reconceptualising e-learning as a relational process among students. Based on that, we draw on network...

For measuring e-government success a well-founded theory is important which can help governments to improve their services and identify how effectively public money is spent. We propose using citizen satisfaction as a measure of egovernment success, as well as explore its relationships with e-government service quality. Three hypotheses have been formulated to test the model. For empirical esti...
