Good ICT Practices for the Integral Development of Ecuadorian Universities

Currently, teaching and learning are significantly influenced by Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), especially in a constantly evolving technological environment. The objective of this study was to develop a structural model to understand how university students use ICT for sustainable digital learning in the areas of social and business sciences. The study investigates the main factors influencing the acceptance of sustainable digital learning based on student satisfaction with the actual use of ICT. This research employs Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with SEM-AMOS and utilizes a questionnaire based on the conceptual framework of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), its variants, and Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) as the primary method of data collection, from which 728 valid responses were obtained. Student responses were classified into several constructs and evaluated to determine their satisfaction with ICT for sustainable digital learning. The findings revealed a significant connection between computer self-efficacy, computer anxiety, and perceived enjoyment towards perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use, which in turn positively influenced student satisfaction with the use of ICT. This model proved effective in explaining student satisfaction and highlights the importance of deeply and strategically integrating ICT into educational design to promote digital learning as sustainability.
