Introduction: During systematic reviews, data abstraction is labor- and time-intensive and error-prone. Existing data abstraction systems do not track specific locations and contexts of abstracted information. To address this limitation, we developed a software application, the Data Abstraction Assistant (DAA) and surveyed early users about their…

Heuristic evaluation is a fast and easy way to detect usability problems. Nielsen (1994) proposed ten heuristics that are being widely used to conduct heuristic evaluation. Utilizing these heuristics for mobile learning applications is not very effective because they are generic and were not developed taking mobile devices into consideration. In…

Despite its importance in the classroom, there has been limited research into the functional design of the syllabus as a means to motivate students to read and use it. This mixed methods study investigates student impressions of a 4-page full-length infographic-style visual syllabus. Identically formatted infographic syllabi were used in three…

The Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, Second Edition (ADOS-2) and the Autism Diagnostic Interview, Revised (ADI-R) have high accuracy as diagnostic instruments in research settings, while evidence of accuracy in clinical settings is less robust. This meta-analysis focused on efficacy of these measures in research versus clinical settings.…

The COVID-19 pandemic has altered nearly every aspect of life, including education. Technology has replaced face-to-face teaching and learning nearly totally. This health disaster has accelerated digitization in the world of education, which was previously only available without a repulsive factor. Cloud computing technology has been widely used…

Many seem to believe that today's pre-service teachers as born after 1980 are digital natives, or that they are "native speakers" of the digital language. Nevertheless, there is no evidence that their digital native characteristics determine whether or not they would use technology in the classroom. Although not widely evaluated, the…

Extension concept mapping is a technique to connect prior existing concept maps with new knowledge structures. It offers advantages in each stage of the knowledge-integrating process and encourages learners to improve their performance. While previous studies have confirmed that the extended kit-build concept map outperformed the extended…

Wearable technologies are becoming more pervasive with the development of high computational capability devices such as smartwatches, smart glasses, smart pills, and sensors. The emergence of these technologies may offer unique opportunities for both students and academics by allowing ubiquitous communication. Accordingly, the current study…

The sudden outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in a transition to an online teaching-learning (OTL) methodology, forcing India's institutions to adopt it. The present study investigates OTL's acceptance by faculty instructors/teachers employed in India's higher educational institutions using the technology acceptance model (TAM). A survey…

Mobile learning (e.g., WhatsApp) is considered a good platform for educational information and communication, but the educative value of this platform, especially during COVID-19, remains unexplored. This study investigates the factors of mobile learning acceptance (MLA) in Jordan, utilizing the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) alongside…

The focus of this research was measuring the effect of Twitter use in the classroom on students' acceptance of technology using the TAM-3 model. This mixed methods study revealed a significant effect from students' use of Twitter in classroom assignments not only on increasing candidates' view of Twitter as being useful, easy to use, and relevant…

The COVID-19 outbreak has impacted almost every facet of life, including education. Technology has almost entirely replaced conventional face-to-face teaching and learning environment. This public health calamity has hastened the digitisation of education, which was previously only provided without a repellent component. Cloud computing is widely…

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the role a peer-driven technology acceptance model (PDTAM) in the form of a Community of Practice (CoP) played in assisting users in the acceptance of Trellis technologies at the University of Arizona. Constituent Relationship Management (CRM) technologies are becoming more common in higher education,…

Preserving biodiversity is vital, and early education plays a key role in fostering environmental awareness. An Augmented Reality Outdoor Mission (AROM) has been created as an innovative educational tool for children between the ages 7 and 11. AROM combines entertainment and education and is designed to engage elementary schoolchildren and…

This study investigates the relationship between undergraduates' technological readiness, self-efficacy, attitude, and usage of artificial intelligence (AI) tools. The study leverages the technology acceptance model (TAM) to explore the relationships among the study's variables. The study's participants are 176 undergraduate students from a public…
