Purpose: ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered chatbot, has gained substantial attention in the academic world for its potential to transform the education industry. While ChatGPT offers numerous benefits, concerns have also been raised regarding its impact on the quality of education. This study aims to bridge the gap in research by…

This study aims to explore the influences of self-efficacy and school climate on motivation for technology integration in education. Albert Bandura's Social Cognitive Theory was used as the theoretical framework. Outcome expectancy was used as a central motivational factor. A foundational model was constructed to explore the relationships among…

Educational technologies have experienced unprecedented prominence on university agendas with many institutions motivated to keep the lessons learned from the COVID-19 sparked transition with regard to online teaching. In response to this renewed interest in ensuring the longevity of educational technologies in higher education, this systematic…

Teachers are gatekeepers of technology integration in the classroom. Pre-service teachers' attitudes, confidence, and competence in exploring emerging technologies play a critical role in teachers' adoption of technology in teaching. This study examined the effects of a gamified technology course on pre-service teachers' confidence, intention, and…

This study aims to provide a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of gamification research in higher education from 2015-2024, highlighting key trends, influential contributors, and emerging themes. It seeks to address gaps in understanding the intellectual structure, global collaboration networks, and integration of advanced technologies in…

This study investigates physics instructors' acceptance and implementation of generative AI (GenAI) in physics education, guided by Rogers' diffusion of innovation (DOI) theory, focusing on its five-stage innovation-decision process: knowledge, persuasion, decision, implementation, and confirmation. Two survey versions were developed--one for…

An online questionnaire survey, regarding 14 motivators for and 13 barriers against adopting technology enhanced learning (TEL), was sent to more than 300 Sri Lankan engineering lecturers, of which 98 responded. The main motivator was found to be personal interest in using technology, and the main barrier lack of funding for TEL. The scores for…

In the post-pandemic era, distance education and training modes without space constraints are gradually becoming a new trend in training. Game-based training combined with situational simulations is a potential approach. This study used a simulation company scenario and a decision-making analysis task of promotion assessment as the game context,…

The integration of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) into web-based individual formative e-assessments in higher education is a nascent field that warrants further exploration. This study investigated the use of GenAI within an 8-week undergraduate-level research methods course at a university in the United States of America, aiming to…

Objectives: In this study, we investigate the intentions of research scholars to use ChatGPT in their academic research endeavors by employing an extended Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology model, the UTAUT2, which examines factors such as performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, hedonic…

The number of the massive open online courses (MOOCs) around the globe is on the rise. Despite the popularity of MOOCs, they have received less attention from faculty members around the globe compared to other less-traditional and digital education models. MOOCs can be challenging for teachers to use. As such, understanding how to facilitate…

The rapid changes in recent years witnessed the development of technology-based education environment where teachers and learners can interact by adopting Information and Communication Technology (ICT) such as Google Glass. However, few educational universities and colleges have adopted Google Glass in their educational institutions. The reason…

Although previous research on Virtual Reality (VR) demonstrated the effects of particular learning environment characteristics on learning, none of these studies constructed their virtual learning environment from a constructive alignment perspective. Therefore, this experimental study aims to investigate the impact of a constructively aligned…

This quantitative study was carried out to find out the contextual factors that relate to ICT adoption and utilization by school administrators in a school district in Ghana. The study adopted the cross-sectional survey design, and used the census sampling technique to collect data from 69 participants, and analyzed using multiple linear…

The cornerstones of prehospital provider education include didactic instruction, psychomotor skills training, and hospital and ambulance clinical rotations. Increasing enrollment in healthcare education programs, limited clinical opportunities, and an increasingly technologically savvy student body are compelling educators to pursue supplementary…
