This study investigates junior high school students' perspectives on improving manufactured products and their perceptions as users after participating in materials processing technology learning in Japan. Guided by recent changes in Japanese curriculum guidelines emphasizing real-world application, we conducted a web-based survey collecting 721…

For P-12 teachers to effectively learn a technology, they must manage the cognitive load inherent to this learning task. However, technology adoption research has not investigated effects of cognitive load on teachers' experiences with learning technology or their technology adoption decisions. Hence, an instrument measuring cognitive load…

Background: Teaching engineering at a high school level has been a subject of substantial concern during recent curriculum reforms. Many countries are increasingly including engineering-focused subjects in their technology curriculum guidelines. However, technology teachers face challenges regarding the optimal implementation of an…

This study explores factors that influence teachers' technology adoption in technology-rich classrooms and how they interact by integrating task technology fit into the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). A proposed model was tested via 343 survey responses from Grade 1-12 teachers using structural equation modeling. The results indicated…

According to the theoretical frameworks and teaching practice, the constructs of the Technology acceptance model - TAM and the Cognitive load theory - CLT are in a close cause-and-effect relationship, and gaining insights into this issue is essential for educators. Our study aimed to examine continuous teaching intention (CTI) with emerging…

Although the use of AI technology driven by anxiety has become increasingly common, research on the relationship between high school students' math anxiety and their intention to use AI for problem-solving remains limited. This study, grounded in the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) model, aims to explore the relationship between math anxiety and…

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is driving ecological shifts and systemic reforms in education. As practitioners of educational reform, teachers' behavioral intention to experience and accept the effectiveness of AI technologies will affect the quality of educational change. From an educational ecology perspective, this study explores the impact of…

Purpose: The advent of information and communication technology (ICT)-driven innovations changed people's lives in a big way. Virtual reality (VR) technology is an innovation that helps in digital transformation across several industries. This research aims to investigate the adoption of virtual reality (VR) technology in secondary school…

This study investigates factors affecting teachers' intention to use the Zalo app--a social media with impressive users in Vietnam in recent years. The extended technology acceptance model (TAM) involves subjective norms (SNs) (colleagues, managers, students, and parents) and anxiety as the precursors of user attitude and intention to use as well…

Technology acceptance studies are interesting because they are practical and theoretically helpful in explaining the adoption and intention to use a particular technology. There is a large amount of research on e-learning and other technologies in the literature, but there is limited evidence to explain why secondary school students' intention to…

This research endeavors to investigate the factors that influence satisfaction with online learning among secondary students in hybrid or blended environments in the United States. With a focus on social-emotional learning and digital citizenship, the study begins the exploration and the impact of teacher interactions, teaching presence,…

This study explores the factors influencing student engagement and behavioral intention towards mobile learning platforms, with a focus on widely used platforms in Indonesia, such as Ruangguru, Zenius, and Quipper. A total of 375 questionnaires were distributed, out of which 363 were deemed valid and used for analysis. The research employed…

There is a lack of sufficient, in-depth understanding on how secondary teachers are experiencing m-learning tools in secondary classrooms. This qualitative research explored the impact of the m-learning tools on teachers in secondary classrooms. The framework that guided this study included the following theories: appraisal theory and…

This work aims to investigate the cultural and psychological factors that significantly affect teachers' intention to accept VR technology and use it long-term in their classes in elementary and secondary schools. The extended unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT2) model effectively measured such factors in this context. We…

The primary objective of this research is to elucidate the factors influencing the acceptance and use of gamified web tools among K-12 teachers in Turkey, according to the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT, Venkatesh et al., 2003). The study employed a causal research design, which allowed for the investigation of…
