“…Yet, IT integration in education varies depending on IT adoption objectives and IT system types. This integration ranges from merely assisting face-to-face teaching to providing blended (or hybrid) learning modes, to enabling exclusive online learning services (AlQenaei et al, 2021;Auster, 2016;O'Byrne & Pytash, 2015).
