The rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence (GAI) has transformed academic research, especially for graduate students, who are progressively depending on GAI for diverse research activities. However, despite its potential to revolutionize research practices, a critical gap remains in understanding the factors that influence…

This research explored the attitudes of higher education students toward ChatGPT, an AI tool commonly employed for academic assistance. Our aim was to investigate students' acceptance and use of ChatGPT during their academic pursuits. We targeted two distinctive groups for our study: undergraduate and postgraduate students. Our findings show that…

In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in understanding the Massive open online courses (MOOCs) due to its gaining popularity. Even though the number of online platforms and programs has grown during the COVID-19 pandemic, there is still a high rate of dropout and non-completion. In this work, the expectation-confirmation model is…

Social media educational tools represent an opportunity for higher education (HE) institutions to enhance postgraduate students' skills development. LinkedIn Learning can be used to complement classroom teaching and learning. However, the drivers and outcomes of this tool remain a gap in the literature. This study uses a cross-sectional research…

This study based on an extended Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology 2 (UTAUT2) model, examines factors influencing graduate students' behavioural intention towards adoption and actual use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI). Using a cross-sectional data from 415 graduate students in Ghana, this study employed the partial…

This study examined factors influencing students' intention to use ChatGPT using UTAUT2 model. The cross-sectional study is based on responses collected from 578 students selected through convenience sampling at a university in Nepal through a structured questionnaire. Using PLS-SEM, the study found that habit ([beta] = 0.315, p < 0.001),…

Although the pedagogy of blended learning in higher education has been well-accepted since 2000, its dimension has been changing, mainly due to the incessant technological innovations. The impact recorded on students' experience has been reliant on various factors. Some of these factors are cultural diversity, technical abilities, level of…

This study aims to evaluate e-learning acceptance through the UTAUT model by showing the contributing variables to the acceptance of e-learning in a Postgraduate Program at Universitas Negeri Makassar, Indonesia. This study was an ex post facto study with 170 samples distributed proportionally. The data were collected through a questionnaire that…

The aim of mobile learning (M-learning) is to overcome traditional constrictions of education such as the place and the time at which learning occurs. M-learning has been investigated in many areas; however, the impact of M-learning on graduate international students and their experiences have not yet been investigated. The research aims to answer…

The purpose of this study was to explore graduate student perceptions of use and the ease of use of multi-modal tablets to access electronic course materials, and the perceived differences based on students' gender, age, college of enrollment, and previous experience. This study used the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology to…

The purpose of this study is to better understand the differences in selected retention constructs by student nationality in US graduate programs. Surveys administered at four universities across the United States during fall 2010 resulted in responses from 685 PhD students from six international regions. Using univariate ANOVA, responses were…
