“…Perceived ease of use affects perceived usefulness, and both are further affected by external variables, such as design features and the content of systems and technologies (see Figure 2). Researchers have suggested that the TAM model has high predictive validity in relation to users' technology acceptance [38,39], leading to the wide application of the model in various contexts relating to users' technology acceptance, such as acceptance of information systems [40], information technology [41], online shopping websites [42], online teaching [43], health service technologies [44], online payment models [45], social media user information release [46], and technologies and innovations in tourism contexts [47].…”

The popularization of smart phones has fostered the use of e-hailing apps, which can effectively reduce information asymmetry and provide ease and convenience during travel. Meanwhile, problems such as product homogeneity, slow operation speed, and interface confusion in travel apps also exist, leading to negative user experience. Building on the theory of planned behavior and technology acceptance model, this study examines multiple features of travel apps and their influence on university students’ experience and travel intentions. Findings of the study suggest that, compared to the contents of travel apps, the ease of use seems to have a stronger influence on students’ attitude, perceived behavioral control, and travel intention. The study contributes to the integration of the technology acceptance model and the theory of planned behavior in travel contexts. The findings also offer meaningful practical implications and recommendations on product and service design to relevant stakeholders willing to offer a better travel app user experience.

“…Jadric et al (2010) found that the amount of experience in using computers and the internet could also influence the success of online courses. On the other context, Flosi and Bandyopadhyay (2009) studied on course management software (CMS) in post-secondary institutions and found different sets of factors of teaching were found to be significantly related to the utilisation of the CMS system by post-secondary faculty.…”

This study aims to investigate the key determinants that influence the students' intention to enrol on an online MBA programme and examine the moderating effect of demographic variables, namely age and gender, to the relationship model. 180 questionnaires were distributed to the adult who has obtained at least a Bachelor's degree and the response rate of 67% was obtained. The analysis was carried out to look at which group is significantly influencing the intention via the multiple regression analysis and tests if the influence moderated by the demographic variables using the hierarchical regression analysis. The findings revealed that three key groups of determinants: individual, technology and the risks perceived, were affecting the students' intention to enrol an online MBA programme. Further analysis shows that intrinsic motivation, computer self-efficacy, acceptance technology and social risk are the four most essential individual determinants of students' intention. It was also found that the influence of perceived risks towards the intention would be stronger among the higher age group. Accordingly, the study provides the policymakers in the field of higher education insight into what is taking place in the domain of virtual campuses and means to set up a sustainable initiatives and strategies for a successful online education.

“…Some barriers of communication software include the cost of the tool, the limitation on the numbers of users that can access the tool, security afforded by the tool, ease of use, and integration of the tool. Flosi and Bandyopadhyay (2009) offer metrics to provide a value based on the usage of an LMS by instructors in higher education, which are useful when considering LMS selection in high schools:…”

The integrating of teaching and learning through technology in high school : learning management systems (LMS) and alternatives

This dissertation is a case study about how teachers use Learning Management Systems (LMS) and teaching technologies in their classes. Research was conducted through interviews, observations, and document analysis. Data analysis yielded fourteen themes and thirty-two codes about teachers' beliefs and experiences. Codes were validated using triangulation, rich, thick description, and member checking. This research builds on Fishbein and Ajzen's Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) and the theory of Diffusion of Innovation (DOI). Data was collected in two high schools and a career center situated within a school district that provided and supported, but did not require the use of, a commercial LMS. All participants use the LMS and other technologies. They were motivated by their positive attitude, subject expertise, longevity in the field, and previous experiences. They also believed that regular use of technology prepares students for the future. Participants self-identified as a minority among teachers in their early adoption of technology confirming the theory of DOI. This study found differences between the LMS use of the extensive and limited users of technology, with the extensive users incorporating a wide variety of tools in unsupported Open Source LMSs. The most extensive users of technology were in science, humanities and IT; limited users, who rely mostly on the district-supported LMS, were in business and health, suggesting different needs in an LMS across the curriculum. This research found that new technologies require time to learn and to use effectively, suggesting that teachers need more time to prepare during school hours as well as more peer mentoring to use the LMS to its fullest extent.
