description |
When integrated with digital workflows, each form input may activate the next process step, increasing the pace of
operations. Compiling and utilizing information from a completed form can generate additional outputs. This study
examines the influence of technology readiness dimensions namely optimism, innovativeness, discomfort, and
insecurity on the actual use of electronic evaluation forms among examiners of internship students in business schools
of higher learning institutions. Furthermore, the study also examines the influence of actual use on commercialization.
As a result, this study may provide significant insights into the human aspects influencing technology usage behaviour
in educational settings and offer practical suggestions for bridging the gap between technology readiness, actual
usage, and commercial value in business schools. The data were collected through an online survey of 119 examiners
and analysed using IBM SPSS Version 24 and SmartPLS 4.0.9.2. The findings indicate that optimism has a positive
influence on the actual use of electronic evaluation forms, whereas innovativeness, discomfort, and insecurity do not.
Additionally, the actual use of evaluation forms positively impacts commercialization. Thus, the findings provide
significant contributions to theory and practice. The study highlights the importance of optimism in driving electronic
evaluation and usage, prompting a rethinking of technology integration strategies. It encourages discussions and
recommendations for academics and practitioners to optimise the use of electronic evaluation forms in business
schools, maximising their potential for commercialization within educational landscapes. |
