Technology enhanced learning acceptance among university students during Covid‑19: Integrating the full spectrum of Self‑Determination Theory and self‑efcacy into the Technology Acceptance Model

This study proposes a unifed theoretical model to integrate the full spectrum of Self-Determination Theory, self-efcacy, and the Technology Acceptance Model in understanding the acceptance of technology enhanced learning among university students during the Covid-19 pandemic. In the proposed theore...
