Researches regarding the acceptance of e-learning technologies
Journal Title: Romanian Journal of Human - Computer Interaction - Year 2010, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
Nowadays, the e-learning applications are integrated in most of curricular areas and scholar cycles. In this context, the perceived utility of these applications at end-user level is an important issue. A series of theories and models (Technology Acceptance Model - TAM, Innovation Diffusion Theory – IDT, Student Integration Model - SIM) have been developed regarding the acceptance of informatics technologies in general and the e-learning technologies in particular. This paper is focussing on the main aspects of the acceptance theories and models in the context of e-learning applications.
