E-learning is now an established presence within the global higher education industry. Demand on e-learning courses increased as it offers flexibility in learning. This study aims to identify the usage pattern of Edmodo among the students, to identify the factors that influence the students' acceptance on the usage of Edmodo and to the barriers faced by the students in using Edmodo at Kolej Profesional MARA Seri Iskandar. Five variables have been determined in the research model which is formulated from the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT). The five variables are performance expectancy (PE), effort expectancy (EE), social influence (SI), facilitating conditions (FC) and the behavioural intention to use (BI). Data from 310 respondents was collected by using a questionnaire and was analysed using the SPSS descriptive and inferential analysis techniques.
