Many technology acceptance models used in education were originally designed for general technologies and later adopted by education researchers. This study extends Davis' technology acceptance model to specifically evaluate educational technologies in higher education, focusing on virtual classrooms. Prior research informed the construction of…

Background: ChatGPT, as a cutting-edge technology in education, is set to significantly transform the educational landscape, raising concerns about technological ethics and educational equity. Existing studies have not fully explored learners' intentions to adopt artificial intelligence generated content (AIGC) technology, highlighting the need…

Educators hold diverse beliefs and attitudes about generative artificial intelligence (AI). Irrespective of their stance, many acknowledge AI's growing influence and the pressing need for greater AI literacy. In this case study, we draw on Davis's (1989) technology acceptance model (TAM) to examine how two English teachers, Fiona and Margot,…

Purpose: This study aims to investigate the effectiveness of widely adopted but under-studied synthetic humanlike spokespersons (SHS) compared to organic human spokespersons in workplace training videos. The primary aim is to evaluate whether employees will rate training videos more negatively when they perceive their trainer to be synthetic such…

This study, grounded in the stimulus-organism-response (SOR) theory, aims to explore how stimulus factors (school support) influence cognitive organisms (psychological resilience, self-efficacy, attitude toward AI, and acceptance of AI), which in turn enhance behavioral responses (AI literacy), while also examining the detrimental effects of AI…

Immersive technologies strive to enhance users' digital experiences by enabling more interactive, engaging, and realistic virtual environments. Despite the growing popularity and advancements in immersive technologies, achieving widespread user acceptance remains a significant challenge. In addition, previous acceptance models may not fully…

Artificial intelligence is increasingly integrated into daily life, and modern educated individuals should have the ability to use AI tools correctly to improve work, study, and life efficiency. In this context, artificial intelligence literacy has been proposed. Due to the lack of consensus on the constructs of artificial intelligence literacy,…

Current educational trends leverage artificial intelligence (AI) to provide high-quality teaching and enhance students' learning competitiveness. This study aimed to evaluate the acceptance of artificial intelligence generated content (AIGC) for assisted learning and design creation among art and design students. Based on an extended technology…

How and why science education scholars and practitioners might use artificial intelligence (AI) in the classroom has been a controversial agenda for decades. ChatGPT, a state-of-the-art (SOTA) AI released in November 2022, has attracted global interest for its exceptionally high performance in generating human-like natural language answers to…

Children are developing alongside interactive technologies that can move, talk, and act like agents, but it is unclear if children's beliefs about the agency of these household technologies are similar to their beliefs about advanced, humanoid robots used in lab research. This study investigated 4-11-year-old children's (N = 127, M[subscript age]…

The purpose of this study was to gauge the attitudes towards artificial intelligence (AI) use in the science classroom by science teachers at the start of generative AI chatbot popularity (March 2023). The lens of distributed cognition afforded an opportunity to gather thoughts, opinions, and perceptions from 24 secondary science educators as well…

This study investigated the relationships between academic self-discipline, self-control and management, meaningful learning self-awareness, and generative artificial intelligence (GAI) acceptance among 597 teacher candidates at nine Turkish universities. A serial mediation model was proposed, hypothesizing that academic self-discipline influences…

In today's educational landscape, students have access to enriched learning environments through augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR) applications. Effective digital learning depends on identifying the key factors and learner attitudes that influence engagement and task performance. We focused more on preservice teachers' intentions to use AR/VR…

This study aims to determine how technophobia, or dread of technology, hinders education and offers future research recommendations. Utilizing systematic reviews, researchers scoured numerous research sources for articles on technophobia in education. The admissions criteria were established, and 18 research works that met those criteria were…

Various factors, including technical, organisational, cultural, and individual, can influence how people adopt digital technologies (DT). However, different contexts have produced similar yet distinct results when researchers integrated these various factors into the technology acceptance model (TAM). Two critical factors in the Islamic…
