Abstract Heightened isolation during the pandemic has exacerbated the stress, anxiety, and adverse consequences through the loss of family connections older people experience in LTC. Heavy workload and staffing shortage limit staff’s capacity to assist residents in accessing regular virtual visits. Using a Collaborative Action Research (CAR) approach, this project aims to assess the implementation of a telepresence robot, Double 3 to help residents connect with their families. CAR allows careful planning of implementation with stakeholders (patient and family partners, staff, and decision-makers), tailoring adaption to the complex LTC environment. We will program path planning to allow efficient movement between target destinations (residents' rooms) and the charging dock. For example, the robot will go to a resident’s room every morning or evening to help the resident to make a virtual call with family. The project involves three phases (a) Observe and Reflect, (b) Act and Adapt, (c) Evaluate. We work with two Canadian LTC homes in British Columbia to investigate feasibility and acceptability. CAR emphasizes research with, rather than research on people. Meaningful engagement with patient and family partners, frontline staff, and decision-makers at each site throughout the whole project will ensure the project will meet the local needs. Anticipated resident outcomes include improved quality of life, mood, perceived loneliness, perceived social support, and acceptance. Anticipated staff outcomes include perceived ease of use, and acceptability.

Abstract One of the most significant changes in the field of education in this information age is the paradigm shift from teacher-centered to learner-centered education. Along with this paradigm shift, understanding of students’ e-learning adoption behavior among various countries is urgently needed. Despite being one of the many countries that are still at the early stages in implementing e-learning, Palestine is a country that has recently seen an expansion in the number of students and the quality of education, which has involved high investment in e-learning. Hence, studies in this area of research interest have yet to be made known within the field of education. This study attempted to address the disparity within the literature for an individual country, Palestine, on the significant influences towards adopting e-learning. A model that investigates the effects of quality features, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness on the intentions and satisfaction of the learners towards the effects of e-learning is proposed in this study. This model encompassed the constructs and variables embedded in TAM and ISSM along with instructor quality. The outcomes of the model, such as actual use and the moderating effect of technical support towards e-learning in Palestine, were investigated. The study proposed that the quality of the course, instructor, service and system as well as perceived usefulness determined the satisfaction among students in use e-learning.

BACKGROUND Oral cancer patients experience different degrees of comorbidity after medical and surgical treatment and also must face psychological distress and uncertainty during the disease course. Patients may encounter physical function obstacles, psychosocial issues and diminishing quality of life. Poorer quality of life creates a higher demand for care, greater demand for health information, and increased psychological needs, care support, medical communication needs, and assistance with physical functioning and activities of daily life. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to investigate the use of a mobile health application to provide information and education for patients after undergoing oral cancer surgery, and to evaluate changes in care needs and quality of life after the intervention. METHODS A convenience sample of 100 patients with postoperative oral cancer was recruited from Far Eastern Memorial Hospital (New Taipei City, Taiwan) between March 2017 and December 2017. Patients were divided into two groups: an experimental group (n=50) receiving an education and information intervention from a mobile health application and a control group (n=50) receiving standard care and nursing guidance. The mobile health application was used from discharge to three months after oral cancer surgery. Patients’ data were collected using a self-administered structured questionnaire. Data were analyzed using logistic regression analysis. RESULTS At baseline, overall scores for quality of life in the experimental and control groups were 32.15 and 28.99, respectively; after 3 months of education/information intervention via mobile health application, the overall scores for quality of life were 24.91 and 24.63, respectively, but without statistical significance. Among patients’ care needs, the physiological needs decreased significantly in the experimental group after the intervention compared with those of the control group (p=0.015). Multivariate linear regression indicated that physiological needs also decreased significantly in the experimental group compared with the control group after adjusting for age and sex (p=0.022). Acceptability of the APP by patients was measured by use intentions, perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. At baseline, mean experimental group scores were 2.54 for use intentions, 2.52 for perceptual usefulness, and 2.32 for perceived ease of use, with no significant differences with control group scores. After 3 months intervention, experimental group scores for use intentions, perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use were 3.02, 2.95, and 3.01, respectively, representing significant increases in each after APP intervention (p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS The mobile health application intervention improves quality of life and reduces physiological needs significantly in patients with postoperative oral cancer, and use of the device was readily accepted. These findings may constitute an empirical basis for postoperative care delivered by healthcare practitioners. Results of this study suggest that mobile health applications can be incorporated easily into routine care of oral cancer patients to provide medical information conveniently and improve patients’ self-management and quality of life.

E Learning

Many e-learning studies have evaluated learning attitudes and behaviors based on TAM. However, a successful E-Learning System (ELS) should take both system and information quality into account by applying ISM developed by Delone and McLean. In addition, the acceptance for information system depends on the perceived usefulness and ease of use according to TAM. This research combines TAM with ISM by introducing system quality, quality of platform information, and course information as an antecedent of perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. These factors are crucial for understanding users’ intentions to continue their use of ELS. The research model was examined with data collected from 164 practicing students with ELS experiences. The results indicated that system quality, platform information, and course information had a significantly positive effect on users’ satisfaction and their intention to use ELS continuously.
