This study aims to explore factors predicting the use of e-learning as a sustainable solution in Indian higher education institutions by employing a modified version of the technology acceptance model (TAM). An online questionnaire (n = 200), capturing post-graduate management students from the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, was analysed using…

This study introduces a novel Learner-Intention Continuum, spanning from curiosity and exploration to purposeful, goal-directed learning. This continuum fills a critical gap in understanding the diverse motivations of informal and semi-formal learners, specifically those who enroll in massive open online courses (MOOCs). Through latent class…

There is a large disconnect between the increasing need for computer science education in K-12 schools and the preservice teacher training provided. Consequently, preservice teachers may graduate feeling unprepared to infuse computer science concepts such as computational thinking (CT) into their teaching. To address this, we created Robotics in…

Since ChatGPT offers free access for everyone, it has created a new phenomenon and has the potential to disrupt the education industry. The primary purpose of this quantitative study is to understand the factors that influence the use of ChatGPT in tertiary education, how it motivates students to learn and how the potential misuse negatively…

This study employs the Theory of Planned Behaviour to investigate mathematics teachers' beliefs regarding their intention to collaborate regularly in an online community. The central premise is that initiating such a community necessitates an implementation strategy informed by a better understanding of underlying beliefs influencing teachers'…

This study advances an e-learning adoption model by exploring the link between Performance Expectancy (PE) and Behavioural Intention (BI) to adopt e-learning among undergraduate students in Kenya's public universities. Using the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT), data were collected from a sample of 388 respondents through…

School-based Agricultural Education has experienced a shortage of qualified teachers, and almost a quarter of agricultural education graduates do not teach upon graduating.

Background & Significance: Recruiting and retaining high-quality teachers is a pressing policy concern due to the declining prestige of the profession and lower enrollment in teacher preparation programs (Kraft & Lyon, 2024). Understanding the determinants of teacher wellbeing, job satisfaction, stress, burnout, and intentions to leave is…

Machine translation tools have gained increasing popularity among translation learners, transforming their translation learning behaviors. However, it is unclear how learners' continuance intention to use these tools is affected yet. Based on the task-technology fit (TTF) model and the value-based adoption model (VAM), the present study examined…

Learners' affective responses to pedagogic tasks and the effort that they invest in completing them are critical to the learning that takes place through tasks in task-based language teaching (TBLT) (Lambert, Aubrey, & Bui, 2023). Fluctuations in learners' willingness to communicate (WTC) during pedagogic tasks--or task-specific WTC (Aubrey…

The use of a learning management system (LMS) is believed to be significant for students' academic performance, but students' attitudes regarding its use are divided. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to apply a modified version of the technology acceptance model to determine the motivators for University of Professional Studies Accra…

Getting feedback on assignments is a ubiquitous educational experience. Researchers have typically described the feedback process in one of two ways--feedback as transmission of information from a more knowledgeable other to the learner or feedback as a student-centered dialogue. The present study highlights a gap between theory and practice by…

List-method directed forgetting usually involves asking people to study a list, followed by a cue to forget it, and then studying a second list. Prior work suggests that List 2 encoding is necessary for directed forgetting to occur, but recent studies have found that moving the forget cue from List 1 to List 2 allows people to selectively forget…

The teaching of entrepreneurship has been progressively included in the curricula of several university courses to stimulate the development of empowering attitudes and an entrepreneurial mentality.
