The view on education in the Appalachian region is not always painted in the best light. The concept that the low socio-economic stricken areas are low-performing and their inability to prepare its students for the next level is not always correct. Rather, these students and their education should not be dismissed, nor should these students be…

Various studies have been done on shifting toward technology-based second language (L2) education. However, the influence of psycho-emotional factors on students' technology acceptance is overlooked. To fill this gap, the present quantitative study examined the role of students' achievement emotions and technological self-efficacy in predicting…

This study contributes to the knowledge about mobile learning among medical students in the context of developing countries. This research used the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to study the preconditions for m-learning among medical students. A twenty-item self-reported survey was used to gather data from 387 medical students, and structural…

Multitasking has been demonstrated to negatively impact performance across a wide range of tasks, including in the classroom, yet students continue to multitask. This study examined the relationship between college students' perceptions and performance of technology-based multitasking. Technology-based multitasking and self-efficacy data were…

The COVID-19 pandemic fundamentally reshaped higher education by forcing institutions into a rapid transition to online learning. Universities have had to quickly incorporate and adjust existing technical resources to accommodate this abrupt transition. This has also involved professors and researchers who may not possess a natural, technological…

This systematic review evaluates the application of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model in higher education, analyzing 162 SSCI/SCI-E articles from 2008 to 2022. It reveals a predominant focus on student participants from Asia and North America. Mobile learning tools are the most studied technologies. Surveys…

Integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the design process is a growing area of research interest. Three years after its public launch in 2022, AI has already established itself as the most disruptive tool revolutionizing how designers conceptualize, iterate and innovate. As AI technologies continue to evolve, it is pertinent that design…

Led by artificial intelligence (AI), digital technologies are acting as a lever for significant change in higher education. Innovative formats such as macrolearning, the concatenation of a significant number of microlearning units, are consequently emerging. The purpose of this paper is to explore students' preferences for macrolearning programmes…

The burgeoning role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in education prompts crucial discussions regarding its implications for teaching and learning. This qualitative study probes the argumentative perspectives of 118 teacher candidates from Igdir University on the integration of AI into educational practices. Employing Toulmin's (1958) model, we…
