Robotics, an emerging tool in STEM education, promises a multitude of educational benefits, ranging from hands-on learning experiences to fostering critical thinking and collaborative skills. However, the integration of robotics in classrooms is primarily contingent upon science teachers' inclination and willingness to adopt this technology. To…

Distance-based technologies have been one of the foci of technology-related studies since the pandemic first appeared, but there is still a need for further research to gain a greater understanding of how teachers are using these technologies in the post-pandemic era. Thus, the aim of this study is to determine whether the level of digital…

Several studies have been conducted on e-learning acceptance among university students. Most of these studies examined various factors and individual characteristics as predictors of actual use and behavioral intention for e-learning systems. However, latent profile analysis was used in the present study, adopting a person-centered approach.…

This study investigates the perceptions of STEM teachers regarding the integration of generative artificial intelligence (AI) applications into classroom settings, using the extended Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) as the framework. The study examines self-efficacy, anxiety, perceived ease of use, expected benefits, attitudes, and behavioral…

Learning was obliged to be transformed to distance learning due to the long-lasting COVID-19 lockdown period. This situation has brought to investigate the critical factors influencing students' intention and actual use of distance learning tools. In this context, this study aims to evaluate the effects of distance learning, deriving independent…

Flipped learning has become an ally in education. However, although the literature has identified multiple benefits of using this strategy to improve student learning outcomes, its adoption and implementation by teachers in science education remain scarce. This study examines antecedents of science teachers' flipped teaching readiness to act,…

The aim of this study is to examine the variables that influence the learners' intention of using online learning platforms and usage behavior continuity to evaluate relationships between variables with a model proposal and to determine the predictive power of the model. Accordingly, a sustained technology acceptance model (STAM) was developed to…

Pedagogical beliefs are a critical factor in terms of integrating technology into teaching, but very few technology acceptance models (TAMs) have considered them. Hence, this study aims to extend the TAM by incorporating pre-service teachers' conception of teaching and learning. The revised model examined the influence of pre-service mathematics…

Today, science and technological developments play a role in the field of sports, as in all domains of life. For this reason, coaches may use technology to improve the technical, tactical, condition, and psychological performance of their athletes. Besides, pandemic conditions such as COVID-19 bring about this obligation. The aim of the present…

This study aimed to investigate the pre-service teachers' behavioural intentions about using gamification tools and the critical factors affecting their usage. The data were collected from 313 pre-service teachers from two large-scale universities in Turkey through a questionnaire with seven constructs: perceived ease of use, usefulness,…

In the current study, path analysis technique was applied to explain the possible causal relations between attitude towards distance education, interest in educational technologies, instructional technologies outcome expectation, intention to use educational technologies and technology integration self-efficacy variables. According to the data…

Recently, mobile learning has become a potential approach in education due to its use inside and/or outside the classroom. Considering that the majority of mobile device users are 18-29 years old higher education students and English is the predominant language of the internet, this study aimed to predict the continuance intention of users toward…

The purpose of this study was to examine teacher candidates' pre and post intentions to use web 2.0 technologies for teaching before and after a collaborative learning process. An extended TAM was used in the current study. This study was designed as a one-group pretest-posttest design with 56 teacher candidates. In the experiment process, the…

The Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPACK) framework provides a theoretical perspective of showing whether a teacher can effectively design and conduct technology-enhanced instruction. In addition, social cognitive variables like self-efficacy, outcome expectations, interest and intentions play a vital role in whether teachers choose…

The interest in using online formative assessment activities has gradually increased in both traditional teaching and distance education processes. Research emphasizes the importance of using online formative assessment in learning processes. Due to this fact, it is essential to uncover pre-service teachers' thoughts about online formative…
