The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine whether perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use of technology influence the integration of technology in rural south Texas teachers' classrooms. To investigate possible relationships, the researcher collected data through an online survey tool. The sample size for the study was 115…

Based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and supplemented by social cognitive theory and gender schema theory, this study investigated the interactive mechanism of TAM by incorporating self-efficacy and gender as two factors in students' usage of sports bracelets. Data were collected from 682 Chinese college freshmen. Results indicated that…

As the internet increases in size, our body of research into what visitors prefer for website design is leaving out a growing group of people. Those with visual impairments are one of the fastest growing minorities with a disability online. This extremely under-studied group uses the internet for as many different purposes as sighted users do, but…

With the development of virtual reality technology, 3D multi-user virtual environments (MUVEs) have attracted increasing research attention and are thought to bring many learning benefits in higher education. However, the widespread and sustained application of MUVEs in higher education lies in learners' intention to use them, but the mechanism…

Educational social network sites have many uses in the field of education. The present paper aims to determine factors influencing students' behavioral intention to use a popular educational social network site, Edmodo. Using an extension of the technology acceptance model, we analyzed quantitative responses of 218 university students, registered…

This study is aimed to develop a scale that measures university students' perception of using e-learning platforms by using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). The sample consisted of 636 university students. The Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) results revealed 5-factors on a 6-items scale. The five factors that were revealed on the EFA…

Anatomy is fundamental to medical disciplines. However, its complexity can be challenging to learners, and traditional anatomy teaching may not be easily accessible. Virtual Reality has the potential to supplement anatomy education, but its effectiveness depends on students' willingness to accept it. This study aimed to measure students'…

The current study is an attempt to bring to light the influence of Open AI adoption among users regarding the Indian Higher Education system by incorporating the TCT and TTF models. A questionnaire was designed to collect the data from 571 participants associated with higher education in India. The developed model with Perceived usefulness,…

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…
