Abstract
The increasing popularity of computers and computer networks has facilitated the use of Web Based Learning Resources (WBLR) in education. Many institutions are investing in the development of WBLR to facilitate the learning process, and WBLR have become very popular among management students. The present study investigated the impact of self-efficacy and need for achievement on management students’ perception regarding Web Based Learning Resources. Our study results confirmed a significant impact of self-efficacy on WBLR. However, we did not find evidence of a significant impact on need for achievement on WBLR. The sample comprised of 150 respondents. Our findings imply that students' experience of seeking help from informal online channels is significant when they actively participate in a course that uses WBLR.
