Abstract :
Trust problems in virtual learning environments are the main problems why virtual learning environments providers do not have enough number of students to participate in these environments. This study proposed a framework to explain the factors that constitute students trust in virtual learning environments across different cultures. The variables that constitute students trust factors are found to vary across cultures with regards to their respective parametric values.
