The levels of the 12 items are used to produce acceptable reliability estimation, and the empirical<br />

results support their content validity, and discriminated validity.<br />

The results proved that the course content (TQ2) was very important for students as well as the fact<br />

that student satisfaction in the process of acquiring new knowledge was an important goal for the<br />

team that designed and implemented the eLearning platform TESYS (US1). The students consider<br />

that the usability of the Tesys is high because they can perform the activities accurately and<br />

completely without frustration.<br />

The students consider that the access to courses through eLearning platform TESYS is very good<br />

(UFT2), but they see a low correlation between exam performances and the reliability of TESYS<br />

eLearning platform (KM4).<br />
