The emergence of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) as an electronic learning trend, and its huge enrollment across the globe, inspired this study. This study was carried out to investigate the e-learning participation among Nigerian University students, determining the level of awareness and extent of usage of Massive open online courses (MOOCS) and other e-learning platforms. The study was carried out in Federal University Lafia Nasarawa State Nigeria with a total of 126 respondent's cuts across the entire departments in the University. Descriptive statistics such as frequency counts and percentages as well as inferential statistics such as Liker-type scale and analysis of variance was employed in analyzing the study. It was discovered in the study that MOOC participation is still very low due to lack of awareness and inadequate infrastructure for internet connectivity. The study therefore suggests methods for improvement for blended and improved learning experience.
