Abstract: The virtual mode of the classroom that changes from the traditional education model poses challenges among the educators especially the inability to cope with the adaption of educational technologies. Online literacy is the basic skill to exercise an outstanding performance during changing environments. However, the conceptualization of adaptive performance seeks further exploration mainly because the past studies focus on the specific context. This study aims to present the validity and reliability of the adaptive performance construct related to online teaching platforms among Malaysian public university lecturers. The questionnaire was designed using Google Form and the adopted questionnaire was emailed to lecturers of Malaysian Research Universities (henceforth, RUs) via their institution’s email address. The data were then analyzed using the SmartPLS software through the measurement model analysis. The analysis involved a second-order approach where the outer loading values, the convergent validity of Average Variance Extracted (henceforth, AVE), and reliability analysis of the adaptive performance construct. The findings suggest that the validity and reliability of the construct were established for the context of the study. The Cronbach Alpha and composite reliability values scored above the threshold values. This study confirmed the adaptive performance instrument among the lecturers in Malaysia and can provide insight for future research. The limitation includes the sample of the study that was rather homogenous which it only focused on lecturers from Malaysian RUs.
