Factors impacting teachers' acceptance and use of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) in the classroom

The article is devoted to control and feedback in foreign language teaching in a technogenic environment. The educational process is transformed in terms of the implementation and active use of digital technologies. ICT-rich environment provides new models of interaction between the teacher, students and digital tools. It also enriches the diversity of tasks and expands the range of possible forms of control and feedback. According to the authors, automated evaluation takes place both in out-of-classroom activities and directly in the classroom using Bring Your Own Device technology (BYOD). Automated control contributes to the intensity of the educational process. It provides all the participants with an opportunity to choose a convenient mode of work and get instant feedback, thereby allowing self-assessment and self-reflection of their own actions. When teaching foreign languages, special attention should be paid to chatbot technology. Chatbots imitate human actions and are able to perform standard repetitive tasks. The growing popularity of bots is explained by a wide range of usage spheres and the ability to integrate chatbots into social networks and mobile technologies. In the technogenic educational environment, ICT can be the basis for interaction, co-editing and peer assessment in collaborative projects. In this case, students receive feedback not only from the teacher, but also from other students, which increases the motivation for independent learning. Thus, automated control, self-assessment and peer assessment can both identify problem areas for each student and design an individual learning path, which increases the effectiveness of learning a foreign language.

The article describes the use of BYOD technology (Bring Your Own Device) in educational practice using the Lecture Racing mobile application. This application provides feedback between the teacher and students both in the classroom and during distance learning, contributes to the visualization of educational material and, in general, the informatization of the educational process. The purpose of the study is to conduct a theoretical analysis of the current state and prospects for the development of BYOD technology in Russia and abroad, and to test the benefits of using this technology in educational practice using the specific mobile application. During the study, an analysis of scientific, theoretical and practical literature on BYOD technology was carried out. In the process of experimental work, test tasks were the instrument of measuring knowledge and skills of students. As a result of a theoretical analysis and study of the practical possibilities of using BYOD technology (using the Lecture Racing mobile application as an example), it was found that this technology allows you to visualize information that is displayed in real time on the screen of each student's mobile device, regardless of its location. This technology also allows both the student and the teacher to quickly work with information, provide feedback, receive an independent assessment (since the assessment is set automatically), saves time, and develops the information culture of students.

Mobile Use

Mobile devices have diffused into work by transitioning from being organizational assets to personal communication tools. This chapter examines the perceptions and practices of diverse types of workers, located around the globe, and reveals the often-hidden complexities surrounding mobile use at work. People can use their mobiles to be productive and connected on the job, but they also face challenges. The shift in control over communication means that organizations have reacted by creating bring-your-own-device-to-work policies, banning their employees from using personal mobiles, and practically forcing workers to provide their own devices and be accessible 24/7. Along the way, workers have had to negotiate with co-workers, managers, clients, friends, strangers, and family concerning how and when they use their mobiles. As they try to build bridges between work and personal life, struggles with self-management and temporal mismatches in the form of reachability can emerge.

Cross National

As individuals all around the world increasingly use mobile devices in their daily life, their desire to use the same devices in the workplace continuously grows. In response, organizations are more and more allowing their employees to use their own devices for both business and private purposes and offer so called ‘Bring-your-own-Device’ (BYOD) programs. For organizations with global operations there is a need to examine the drivers of BYOD demand across different national cultures to assess how to develop a successful BYOD program. Based on recent literature on BYOD, we examine how different factors contribute to employees’ behavioural intention to participate in a BYOD program across different national cultures. The model was examined by surveying students from China, Germany and U.S. in their final term. The results show significant cross-cultural differences, particularly regarding the 'Perceived Threats'. Overall this study offers novel insights for cross cultural BYOD implementations.

Development Life Cycle

Dalam upaya melakukan pengelolaan potensi sumber daya dan persoalan di desa, pihak pemerintah desa telah merancang program pembangunan jangka lima tahun yang disusun dalam dokumen bernama RPJM Desa. Pada pelaksanaan kebijakan pada program tersebut, diperlukan monitoring secara berkala agar luaran yang dihasilkan sejalan dengan tujuan yang ditetapkan. Saat ini kegiatan monitoring pembangunan di Desa Majalaya masih bersifat konvensional. Kaur Umum dan Perencanaan perlu melakukan kunjungan langsung ke beberapa lokasi pembangunan dan mengelola berita monitoring yang dilaporkan oleh aparatur desa dari media whatsapp sehingga proses monitoring membutuhkan waktu dan tenaga yang banyak. Berdasarkan hal tersebut, Peneliti mengusulkan sistem informasi monitoring pembangunan di Desa Majalaya dengan tujuan menganalisis dan merancang sistem informasi pembangunan desa berbasis Bring Your Own Device (BYOD). Sistem usulan dirancang menggunakan metode System Development Life Cycle (SDLC), mulai dari tahap planning, analysis dan design. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sistem informasi monitoring pembangunan desa berbasis BYOD dapat menghasilkan informasi secara cepat dan akurat sehingga memudahkan Kaur Umum dan Perencanaan beserta aparatur desa lainnya dalam mengelola data monitoring pembangunan desa. Hal ini karena sistem tersebut memiliki database yang mengelola data monitoring secara otomatis dan dihubungkan dengan smartphone pengguna yang memiliki akses internet. Selain itu, terdapat fitur geolocation yang dapat melacak koordinat lokasi kegiatan monitoring sehingga informasi yang diterima Kaur Umum dan Perencanaan lebih relevan.

Rapid Changes

In recent years, the number of people who use mobile devices for business and organizational purposes has increased. This phenomenon is now known as “bring your own device” (BYOD), and it is rapidly entering the health industry, which makes clear the necessity of studying its various dimensions for its implementation and application. Recently, the use of mobile devices is increasing due to the social tendencies of people. Rapid changes in modern gadgets and smartphones have also encouraged organizations to use their mobile devices in the workplace for business purposes, creating related opportunities and challenges. These cases have made the expansion of BYOD inevitable so that the only way to control BYOD’s threats is to accept its process and finally formulate related strategies and policies before using it.
