This research aims to present a framework of factors influencing students' inclination towards participating in virtual classes. To achieve this goal, a review of previous research has been conducted, and the influential factors on students' willingness to engage in virtual classes have been extracted. Based on these factors, a structural equation model has been developed. The study population consisted of students from Mehralborz University, with a selected sample of 182 individuals. Data analysis was conducted using the partial least squares structural equation modeling technique through the SmartPLS software. The results of data analysis indicate that factors such as the educational leadership of instructors, students' technical readiness, and the design of online courses directly impact students' satisfaction with participating in virtual classes. Additionally, factors such as students' technical readiness, student interaction, facilitative conditions, and students' satisfaction with the conduct of online courses significantly influence their participation in virtual classes. Moreover, students' participation in virtual classes has a significant impact on their intention to use virtual classes in the future. The findings of this research provide valuable insights for Mehralborz University to understand these factors and effectively address them in promoting students' intention to use virtual classes.
