Given the increasing popularity of online learning, the study of the user experience in online courses is relevant for the design of meaningful online learning. While there exist many checklists for online course evaluation, they focus on different items and lack consensus of common usability factors. Traditional usability studies focus on…

In a world designed for non-disabled people, visually impaired students (VIS), have to overcome difficulties such as content and exam formats, in their education life. The aim of this study is to determine the usefulness level of the online voice-assisted exam system (OVAES), which was designed and developed by the researchers with reference to…

Non-Verbal Cues (NVCs) add to communication effectiveness among individuals in both real and virtual world. Thus, NVCs transference between the two receives increased attention from both the industry and research community. Their efforts lead to sophisticated technological solutions which allow high fidelity NVCs to be transferred from real…

With the large number of online courses currently available, learners may have difficulty choosing the appropriate course, so online education institutions have launched a free trial marketing approach. The factors influencing learners' continuous usage of online courses in the mode of course trial have become a prominent and meaningful topic.…

One-to-one online learning has become pervasive in distance education. However, factors affecting learners' continuance intention toward one-to-one online learning are not well known. This study proposed a model to explain learners' continuance intention toward one-to-one online learning. The model extends previous technology acceptance models and…

This study aims to explore the difference between on-line and off-line teaching and comprehensively evaluate the of elearning system operation effect as both technology-mediated learning and an open information system. This study develops "process-situation-result" (PSR) network, a comprehensive learning system evaluation model. It…

Recently, interest in understanding the prospects of virtual environments, specifically virtual reality laboratories (VR Lab) -- those that involve a first-person practica experience via a desktop computer or head-mounted display -- in science education has increased. Seemingly ingrained in the process of implementing a VR Lab is a supposition of…

Virtual reality is a rapidly developing technology and its applications are being explored in a variety of educational fields. While an increasing amount of attention is being paid to VR as a language learning tool, there remains less research on using VR with languages other than English. Adapting the Technology Acceptance Model, this study…

To identify the most frequent factors that showed significant results in the previous literature of social media, a quantitative systematic approach of 713 studies was conducted. The results showed that perceived enjoyment (PE), subjective norm (SN), self-efficacy (SE), perceived critical mass (PCM), facilitating conditions (FC), perceived…

Interest is the basic driver of a person is doing something to achieve his goals, and in action-reaction theory, the measure that is widely used is attitude. Through behavioral intention to adopt, we examined its effect on online learning interest using perceived usefulness (PU), perceived ease of use (PEOU) and self-efficacy (SE). In addition,…

Given the paucity of research on mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) in secondary schools in China, this retrospective case study explored the psychological processes underlying the non-voluntary MALL experiences of Chinese secondary school students during a lockdown to contain the spread of COVID-19. Drawing on prior technology acceptance…

The aim of this study is to construct a technology model, named as Online Learning Technology Engagement Model (OLTEM), to enhance our understanding in the adoption of an online learning technology. The study suggests a model covering the theoretical background of underlying motivational processes for technology engagement of students. The sample…

As a key variable determining technology acceptance and adoption, the perceived ease of technology use (PEU) has been in the focus of a considerable body of research. This research examined the external factors that influence perceived ease of use, such as computer self-efficacy and perceived enjoyment, but yielded inconsistent findings and…

The aim of this study is to investigate the determinants that affect undergraduate students' behavioral intentions to continue learning computer hardware concepts utilizing a Metaverse-based system. The current study examined the factors influencing students' adoption of Metaverse technology at the tertiary level using a model based on the…

Among the different sectors affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, educational institutions had vast changes in terms of implementing instructional programs via a distance mode to ensure continuous teaching and learning. While studies documenting adjustments during the pandemic highlight challenges such as material constraints, lack of training among…
