This study examined the question of whether the "emergency remote teaching" that was accidentally adopted during the pandemic will eventually lead to an acceleration of digitalizing the teaching and learning processes at PNGUoT. Utilizing a mixed-method explanatory sequential design, quantitative data were collected first and followed by…

The closures of Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) due to the COVID-19 pandemic meant that face to face classes had to be put on hold. However, the growth in information and communication technologies (ICT) made it possible for HEIs to continue with their core activities remotely, primarily using learning management systems (LMSs). The overuse…

We conduct a large and nationwide survey among German teachers to investigate the determinants of teachers' adaption to an increased use of educational technology during the COVID-19 school closures.
