Exploring the antecedents of screenshot-based interactions in the context of advanced computer software learning

Exploring students’ acceptance of team messaging services: The roles of social presence and motivation

“…The TAM has been extensively adopted to explore the influential factors behind users’ acceptance of technologies (Davis et al ., ; T. K. Huang, ; Y. M. Huang, ; Iglesias‐Pradas, Hernández‐García, & Fernández‐Cardador, ; Shin, ). Such an exploration has been viewed as a vital issue in educational research because researchers and practitioners can provide learners with a more acceptable technology by reference to the findings (T. K. Huang, ; Y. M. Huang, ). Developed by Davis and his colleagues, the TAM consists of four constructs, namely perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, attitude toward using, and behavioral intention (Davis, ; Davis et al ., ).…”

“…Cloud services have been favorably viewed as one of the potential means to facilitate students’ learning (Wang & Huang, in press; Y. M. Huang, ). Such services provide users with a variety of innovative and powerful applications through the Internet.…”

“…For example, Google Docs not only enables multiple users to realize synchronous collaboration, but also assists them in keeping the records of revisions, with which they can track who made what change and further compare the differences between different versions (Wang & Huang, in press). As a result, cloud services are gradually utilized and studied in the field of education (Wang & Huang, in press; Y. M. Huang, ).…”

“…However, she did not investigate students’ acceptance of such a service. In fact, the investigation of users’ acceptance of new technologies has become an important issue in educational research (T. K. Huang, ; Y. M. Huang, ; Hwang, Huang, & Wu, ; Liu & Huang, ; Smith & Sivo, ), because it enables researchers to find out the value of a given educational technology and whether it satisfies students’ needs. More importantly, the investigation is useful for researchers to understand students’ perception of a given technology, which not only supports teachers in bringing the impacts of the technology into full play, but also helps its developers bridge the gap between the design and the utilization of the technology (Liu & Huang, ).…”

Does Applying Screenshot Annotations Enhance Learning Effectiveness? The Moderating Role of Course Difficulty

“…Some social networking sites, such as Flickr and Facebook, furnish users with a highly interactive photo-sharing environment, which allows the user to create tags or annotations on a photo. This photo-sharing environment can be an innovative method for learners to demonstrate their problems by posting screenshots, rather than personal photos, when they encounter computer software difficulties [6]. In particular, Flickr provides its users with three types of annotationsstickers, drawings, and texts-to pinpoint the specific portion of the screenshot by means of the annotation tools, called photo editor, as shown in Figure 1.…”
