While a considerable body of research has focused on learners’ acceptance of or resistance to mobile technologies, fewer studies have focused on teachers. This research study aimed to understand the factors influencing South African teachers’ acceptance of or resistance to using mobile technologies in their classroom practice. The Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was used as a lens to explore factors that enhance mobile technology acceptance. The study consisted of a sequential mixed method, action research approach. Fifteen participants received training at a Mobile Technology workshop, aiming to provide professional development and enhance technological literacy knowledge and skills for teachers. The participants were then tasked to teach with technology and to share and reflect on their experiences and perceptions during the community of practice meetings. Content analysis was used to analyse the transcripts of these meetings and this led to the identification of 2 key factors, which enhanced the teachers’ acceptance of mobile technology, namely, perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. Six sub-factors affecting acceptance were also identified: anxiety, ability, attitude, facilitating conditions, subjective norm and voluntariness. The factors that were identified suggest that additional professional development, infrastructure and resources need to be provided for teachers. We argue that by providing these necessities and eliminating or significantly reducing these factors, the use of mobile technology will be a success.

In this research, we study factors such as perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness and personal innovativeness in order to understand the consumer attitude construct to affect loyalty, satisfaction and repurchasing intention of mobile wallet applications in Thailand. We developed a research model based upon previous research where we propose and examine seven constructs. In general, thirteen out of fifteen hypotheses are supported by variables related to mobile technology adoption, usage and retention with the 461 Thai consumers sampled. Personal innovativeness, perceived usefulness, and perceived ease of use strongly loaded on consumer attitudes for mobile wallet applications as originally hypothesized. It was found that consumer attitudes are the key factor that drives satisfaction, increases loyalty and improves repurchase intention of mobile wallet applications in Thailand.

This study aimed to qualitatively investigate the factors that influence teachers' behavioral intention to use mobile technology (BIU) for language teaching employing the original technology acceptance model (TAM) as a framework. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 28 Arabic and English teachers. The study results revealed that there were several external variables influencing teachers' behavioral intention to use mobile technology. It was also found that participants had mixed levels of perceived ease of use (PEOU), perceived usefulness (PU), and attitude toward use (ATU). Moreover, it was concluded that ATU had a direct impact on BIU and PU was the responsible factor for participants who had a mixed ATU.

Mobile commerce is increasingly becoming a key aspect of human activities with the advancement of mobile technology and services. This chapter examines key factors that influence m-commerce adoption and the moderating roles of gender and income. The conceptual framework is underpinned on an extended technology acceptance model. The data was collected using a questionnaire given to participants selected from Malaysia. The analysis was based on 260 valid responses. Findings reveal that five hypotheses developed for this chapter were supported for female participants, except perceived usefulness, and perceived ease of use was unsupported for male participants. Perceived usefulness and social influence were the most important factors for participants earning low and high income, respectively. Surprisingly, high-income earners indicated that cost is an important factor. The contributions to research and practice, including suggestions for future studies, are discussed.
