Modeling teachers acceptance of learning management system in higher education during COVID‐19 pandemic: A developing country perspective

Abstract

The ubiquity of the World Wide Web has provided massive opportunities to teachers and learners around the globe to share knowledge anytime anywhere via learning management system. Hence, considering the needs of the students; universities have arranged the facilities of the learning management system. This study is an empirical evaluation of university faculty members' intention to use a learning management system. We extended Davis's (1989) Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to evaluate faculty members' intention to use learning management system amid COVID‐19. Data were obtained from the faculty members of Pakistani universities through the convenience sampling technique and analyzed using PLS‐SEM. The outcomes of the study revealed that perceived ease of using a learning management system, user‐interface design, and faculty members' innovativeness have a favorable impact on their intention to use learning management system. Facilitating conditions positively influenced intention to use learning management system. However, the positive relationship between facilitating conditions and perceived ease of using the learning management system was insignificant. The results indicate that the extended TAM model has effectively predicted faculty members' intention to use the learning management system. The findings of the current study can be used for the training and development of faculty members by institutions and regulatory bodies in developing countries.

Adaptación del Modelo de Aceptación de Tecnologías para Explorar las Intenciones de Uso en la Educación Virtual

“…Congruentemente con la literatura revisada (Hanham et al, 2021;Teo, 2011Teo, , 2012Waris & Hameed, 2022), las Condiciones Facilitadoras predicen la Facilidad de uso percibida, lo cual se explica porque las condiciones implican la existencia de factores ambientales (soporte organizativo y técnico, la disponibilidad de tutoriales de uso y los entrenamientos de en el uso de tecnologías) que forman creencias de que es fácil usar las tecnologías e-learning. Asimismo, en concordancia con trabajos previos (Feng et al, 2021;Huang, Sánchez-Prieto, et al, 2021;Teo, 2011Teo, , 2012, Norma Subjetiva influye en Utilidad Percibida, lo cual se asocia a la formación de creencias de la utilidad de las tecnologías e-learning por la internalización de percepciones de personas significativas (autoridades, docentes, compañeros, etc.)…”

Pengaruh Kemampuan Intelektual, Environmental Leadership, Dan Motivasi Mengajar Sebagai Variabel Intervening Terhadap Kinerja Lingkungan Dosen

“…Hasil perhitungannya menunjukkan besaran Q-square di atas 0, pemodelan dinyatakan mempunyai besaran prediktif yang sesuai. Hal ini sesuai dengan hasil penelitian yang menyatakan Model TAM secara efektif memprediksi niat anggota fakultas untuk menggunakan manajemen pembelajaran system (Waris & Hameed, 2023). Kesiapan guru dan persepsi penggunaan Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) berpengaruh positif dan signifikan terhadap kinerja guru (Sulistiyani & Nugroho, 2022).…”

How do social media influencers inspire consumers' purchase decisions? The mediating role of parasocial relationships

“…Technology‐related products include artificial intelligence, mobile phones, smartwatches, LEDs, smart televisions, laptops, power banks, cables, cameras, hard disks, and software (Waris & Hameed, 2022). It is a big booming industry worldwide, with hundreds and thousands of influencers endorsing products to millions of followers (Beganovich & Beganovich, 2020).…”
