The current study examines teachers' views and perceptions of Information and Communications Technology (ICT), and whether there are differences between teachers in veteran schools (with over four years of experience in the ICT program) and teachers in schools with less experience. The study included 81 teachers from fifteen schools at various…

Notwithstanding the benefits that information and communications technology (ICT) offers to learning processes, the majority of learners in rural and township areas in South Africa either do not have access to computers and the internet, or they lack sufficient skills to exploit the benefits of ICT. This lack of skills and access to computers may…

The study was designed to examine the relationship among computer anxiety, computer self-efficacy, computer experience, performance, and engagement. Previous research has demonstrated that these topics are related; however, few studies have included all of these variables. Specifically, this study was designed to answer the following research…

Online learning has changed higher education, emerging as a primary source for delivering courses and programs to students. As online learning has grown, more non-traditional students have entered college, many for the first time. Consequently, many of these non-traditional are experiencing online learning, and the technologies that deliver them,…

The aim of this study is to examine the factors that influenced the use of Edmodo content management system to support the teaching and learning in a flipped classroom context. Using an extended technology acceptance model (TAM), we adopted a revised model consisting of two external factors (Content Quality and Motivation) that may influence…

This study explored the antecedents of students' intention to participate in computer-based course evaluation. The study proposed an extended Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) that integrated subjective norm and perceived relevance into TAM. Based on the responses from 149 business school students in Macao, the study identified the direct and…

One focus of distance learning research is to explore the extent that learner characteristics and skills determine learning outcomes and to elaborate predictive models of performance. Modern approaches can benefit from objective data, such as various time indices and frequencies of learner actions, provided by log systems catching online traces to…

Educators have debated whether computers and various other forms of technology, specifically, digital technology, should be used in preschool classrooms. While much research exists surrounding technology use and academic support, there is little empirical research surrounding how technology use by preschool children impacts their social and…

Many educational organizations are using Wikis to enhance virtual learning to encourage knowledge sharing inside between students and instructors. Wiki is an ideal tool for the online knowledge sharing at educational organizations which help to achieve more collaborative work environment between students and instructors. However, educational…

This study aimed to explore faculty members' acceptance of the flipped classroom model (FCM) based technology with student-centered approach in their classrooms in Saudi universities. Specifically, the study investigated factors that influence faculty members acceptance or rejection of the adoption and use of the FCM based technology by…

The role of the specialized high-school computer teacher is challenged by both students' and non-computer teachers' growing expertise in computers and technology in general. It is also challenged by a need to keep pace with a field that is constantly changing. Yet, few studies have investigated the complex variables that may affect computer…

This study sought to understand challenges that teachers (N = 15) in poverty settings encountered during information literacy instruction (ILI) and inquiry-based learning. First order barriers focused on insufficient support for instruction (training to align ILI in poverty settings; integrate diverse information resources/technology tools),…

This study examines the acceptance of technology and behavioral intention to use learning management systems (LMS). In specific, the aim of the research reported in this paper is to examine whether students ultimately accept LMSs such as eClass and the impact of behavioral intention on their decision to use them. An extended version of technology…

This quantitative causal-comparative research study addresses the question of whether a teacher's training background is related to a difference in their attitude toward educational technology. This study specifically targeted Montessori Early Childhood Educators during the COVID-19 pandemic and compared their scores on each of nine subscales on…

Computer self-efficacy is associated with a variety of positive learning processes and outcomes. Despite historical attempts to measure computer self-efficacy, there are severe validity concerns apparent in the literature. In 2014, M. C. Howard developed the Computer Self-Efficacy Scale (CSES) with a focus on general computer use rather than…
