Although virtual learning environments (VLEs) have long been forecasted to accelerate the educational revolution, their adoption by teachers and students has not always been as effective as is expected over the years. This challenges universities that extensively investigated educational technologies. Stakeholders are keen to understand the…

Researchers have significantly explored language learners' attitudes toward ChatGPT through the lens of technology acceptance models, particularly with its development and integration into computer-assisted language learning (CALL). However, further research in this area is necessary to apply a theoretical framework with a pedagogical-oriented…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the key factors affecting the adoption and use of online assessment in Polytechnics in Zimbabwe during the COVID-19 era using the Technology-Organisation-Environment (TOE) framework and Technology Acceptance model (TAM). A qualitative research methodology was employed to discover and explain the…

In this follow-up study, 973 members of the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) were surveyed regarding their use of technology in day-to-day counseling activities.

Since the successful implementation of mobile learning in education is largely based on users' acceptance of these technologies, it is essential to understand the factors…

In this study, we investigate whether mobile device use in surveys can be predicted. We aim to identify possible motives for device use and build a model by drawing on theory from technology acceptance research and survey research. We then test this model with a Structural Equation Modeling approach using data of seven waves of the GESIS panel. We…

The pervasiveness of digital devices in almost every facet of student and faculty life leads to the integration of technology in teaching and learning practices of contemporary educational institutions. As an alternative strategy of technology integration, "Bring Your Own Device" involves the introduction of personal digital devices in…
