Flexible education is considered the primary function of e-learning, however, empirical evidence during the COVID-19 pandemic has also demonstrated that students may seek emotional comforts in e-learning to alleviate their negative emotions. This study aims to provide a holistic view of the antecedents of college students' e-learning acceptance by…

The aim of this study is threefold: (1) to present a valid and reliable scale in the framework of the Technology Acceptance Model; (2) to reveal factors affecting pre-service science teachers' intentions to use technology-based STEM; (3) to examine the effect of technology-based STEM education training on pre-service science teachers' perceived…

The study evaluates the students' behavior intention toward the use of a student information management system (SIMS) at the Institute of Social Work located, in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The study offers a significant contribution to the body of literature using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). The study extends the original TAM with the…

The advent of digitalisation and the spread of online platforms have transformed the way educational materials are delivered, creating unprecedented learning opportunities. This innovative modality, capable of initiating a paradigm shift, enables students to obtain their education from virtually any location. The main objective of this research…

Whilst online learning has gained rapid momentum, the development of online technology and practices that support the delivery of online courses with a large research component has been slow. In 2017, the School of Psychological Sciences at Monash University, Australia, developed a potentially scalable and transferable online research portal. This…

This study examined California Community Colleges' administrator decisions about online proctoring software during the COVID-19 global pandemic between March 2020 and June 2022. Understanding how decisions were made, by whom, what information was considered, and how information was evaluated can support more informed decision making regarding…

Based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) (Davis et al., 1989), this research examines the variables of perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use as predictors of video creation usage after software training. To gain a comprehensive understanding of the technology adoption process, the study also employed the Learning Adoption Trajectory…

This study aimed to investigate the use of mobile phones as a learning tool among postgraduate students at Sokoine University of Agriculture. The study adopted a cross-sectional research design. The sample size was 120 respondents selected through the stratified sampling technique and data were collected using structured questionnaires.…

This study aims to develop and test the BioXpedia Board Game (BXBG) prototype for teaching Cell Division in Biology. This research was based on the ADDIE model, a sample of 80 was chosen randomly among the Biology pre-service teachers from a local university. Based on the responses of the preliminary studies and literature reviews, a prototype was…

The need to create accessible digital materials became evident when the COVID-19 pandemic shifted nearly all learning online in 2020 and early 2021. Inspired to create professional development that was sensitive to our campus needs at a challenging time, the campus Workgroup on Accessibility Practices created an intervention in the form of a…

Statistical software is commonly used in undergraduate social sciences statistics courses. Due to the increase in online/hybrid courses and the cost of SPSS, instructors may wish to switch to another statistical software. We cover seven programs: Excel, Google Sheets, jamovi, JASP, PSPP, R, and SOFA. We compare programs using the following…

The problem under study was that even with training, teachers have difficulty implementing behavior management programs. The purpose of this basic qualitative study was to explore middle school teachers' perceptions of the challenges they encounter in implementing behavior management programs to encourage positive student behavior. The theory of…

Computational Thinking (CT) is an emerging topic in school curricula. Different tools exist to support the learning of CT, namely visual programming languages and tangible development platforms (TDP), which are widely used in extra-curricular activities. To date, few tools have been developed that consider both teachers' needs and the school…

Traditionally, learning among young students has taken place within structured, physical classroom settings. However, the emergence of distance learning has introduced a diverse range of learning methods, including online, hybrid, and blended approaches. When the COVID-19 pandemic led to extended delays in in-person instruction, use of educational…

Purpose: The use of generative artificial intelligence (genAi) language models such as ChatGPT to write assignment text is well established. This paper aims to assess to what extent genAi can be used to obtain guidance on how to avoid detection when commissioning and submitting contract-written assignments and how workable the offered solutions…
