Various studies outline the 'digital disconnect' that exists between the digital experiences that children have with technologies at home and at school. It is however important to document the increasingly multimodal technological world that young children are inhabiting. Framed by socio-cultural and ecological theoretical perspectives, this case…

With the development of the "maker movement," more and more teachers are applying a broad range of technological tools in their pedagogy, instead of only information technology. This study details the development and validation of the Teachers Maker-based TPACK Survey Instrument (TMTSI), a revised model designed to measure technology…

Despite the widespread availability of network and technology infrastructure at higher education institutions, the pedagogical innovation envisioned from technology-enhanced learning is still not prevalent. Faculty need to develop expertise for designing and implementing technology-enhanced learning strategies that is termed as technological…

Few studies have investigated the extension of the technology acceptance model (TAM) of mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) by incorporating psychological influence factors. We aimed to determine the factors affecting the continued adoption of MALL by college-age students of English as a foreign language (EFL). We extended the TAM by adding…
