“…Similarly, in their study with Nepali students, Teo et al (2019) stated that ENJ is the variable that most affects students' intention to use it. On the other hand, in the study of Hwang et al (2021), it was reported that the relationship between ENJ and the intention to use computer-based educational technologies of Malaysian students was not significant. Compared to similar studies in higher education, the ENJ→BI relationship is consistent with this study and Teo et al (2019).…”

Technology acceptance studies are interesting because they are practical and theoretically helpful in explaining the adoption and intention to use a particular technology. There is a large amount of research on e-learning and other technologies in the literature, but there is limited evidence to explain why secondary school students’ intention to use e-learning. This study explains secondary school students’ intentions to use e-learning with an extended Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). TAM is a useful theory to explain how people adopt new technologies in different fields. Data were collected from 2739 secondary school students in Turkey (Mage = 11.95). Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modelling (SEM) were used to test the conceptual model. The results are consistent with the original TAM model. The most critical variable affecting secondary school students’ intention to use e-learning technologies is enjoyment. The results show that there may be differences in the intention to use e-learning technologies for secondary school students in different cultures and contexts.
