“…Nevertheless, only TE significantly affected PU in these studies [53,54,63]. Moreover, this study contends that when employees are required to take on demanding, novel, or difficult duties, they perceive that a digital training platform is stable and somewhat user-friendly [44,48]. Consequently, this study developed e-learning technology approaches related to task equivalency.…”

Previous studies have confirmed that managers need to develop influencing strategies to encourage employees to accept mobile information systems. Despite the recognition in past research that external variables can influence employee’s perceptions, the explanation of how their approval of the framework is affected by these external variables’ pathways or procedures remains limited. Participants were selected from Malaysian institutions that have previously rolled out mobile e-learning technologies into their operations. Empirical findings disclose that source credibility is positively associated with playfulness, perceived ease of use, and perceived usefulness. Similarly, organizational support and task equivocality are significantly related to perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. Additionally, perceived ease of use positively affects playfulness, perceived usefulness, and employee attitude. Finally, an employee’s attitude is positively and significantly related to behavioral intentions (BI). The findings of this study provide insight for firms considering implementing a mobile information system at all levels of their institutions. Furthermore, it offers employees valuable information about the system, its value, benefits, and advantages.

Geometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the properties of space, including distance, shape, size, and the relative position of figures. It is one of the oldest branches of mathematics and has applications in various fields such as science, art, architecture, and even in areas seemingly unrelated to mathematics. Studies show that working memory and spatial perception contribute to students' geometry performance. This paper presents multiple studies demonstrating the brain regions activated when solving geometric problems. Interestingly, the brain areas activated when solving algebraic problems are different from those activated when solving geometric problems. Finally, multiple studies are presented that indicate students with learning difficulties lag in geometry, as solving geometric problems requires good reading and arithmetic skills.

Students with learning disabilities often experience a complex range of internal and external challenges that can significantly impact their overall well-being and development. Internally, these students may grapple with intense feelings of anxiety, depression, and physical complaints, which can lead to social withdrawal and diminished self-esteem. They may also face higher rates of bullying and social rejection, further exacerbating their psychosocial difficulties and negatively affecting their sense of belonging and acceptance. These learners are more likely to exhibit attention problems, poor concentration, and a wide range of emotional difficulties, which can further hinder their ability to engage effectively in academic and social settings. Behaviorally, students with learning disabilities may exhibit issues like attention deficits and socialisation challenges, stemming from underlying processing difficulties and challenges in understanding social cues and norms. They may also experience feelings of anger, frustration, and even aggressive behaviours, often as a result of their negative experiences and struggles with academic demands. Emerging research suggests that executive function deficits can contribute to these students' complex relationship between temperament and psychological difficulties. Problems with executive functions, such as attention, planning, memory, and flexibility, can significantly impact their cognitive and social-emotional development. Early interventions, such as video games, mobile apps, or STEM-oriented approaches, are crucial for addressing these multifaceted challenges and supporting the holistic growth and well-being of students with learning disabilities
