“…Hence, it will be cogent to arrange adoption of mobile application more and more in the girls' school of rural areas of India (Goodwin 2012) at first. Mobile application in education particularly for girls, as such, is expected to enrich the school education system leading to the establishment of smart classroom infrastructure (Wogu et al 2019) and support smart education in general (Singh and Miah 2020). This would eventually enrich the community and contribute to the sustainable development of society.…”

The purpose of this study is to identify the factors that can impact the adoption of mobile apps for teaching-learning process focusing on the girls' school in rural India. The hypotheses were proposed and a conceptual model has been developed. There is a survey work conducted to collect the data from different respondents using a convenience sampling method. The model has been validated statistically through PLS-SEM analysis covering feedbacks of 271 effective respondents. The study highlights the impact of different antecedents of the behavioural intention of the students of using mobile applications for teaching-learning process. The results also show that among other issues, price value has insignificant influence on the intention of the girl students of the rural India. During survey feedbacks have been obtained from the 271 respondents, which is meagre compared to vastness of the population and school of rural India. Only few predictors have been considered leaving possibilities of inclusion of other boundary conditions to enhance the explanative power more than that has been achieved in the proposed model with the explanative power of 81%. The model has provided laudable inputs to the educational policy makers and technology enablers and administrators to understand the impact of the mobile applications on the rural girls' school of India and facilitate the development of m-learning. Very few studies been conducted to explore the impact of mobile applications on the school education of rural India especially focusing on the girls' schools.

“…A recent literature review focusing on SES [7] showed that existing solutions have paid significant attention to the emerging advanced technologies to engage and support learners, educators, and administrators efficiently. From a technological perspective, existing approaches can be classified into five categories, which are based on assisted technologies, namely mobile applications, cloud computing, web environments, social networking, and virtual reality, including their variants and hybrid solutions.…”

“…From a technological perspective, existing approaches can be classified into five categories, which are based on assisted technologies, namely mobile applications, cloud computing, web environments, social networking, and virtual reality, including their variants and hybrid solutions. Although several improvements have been introduced to enhance user satisfaction, an analysis of the literature [6], [7] reveals two major problems with existing solutions. The first is that a comprehensive framework design that considers the technical aspects, including backward compatibility, open interoperability, scalability, elasticity, and self-government, has not yet been reported.…”

Detachable Web-Based Learning Framework to Overcome Immature ICT Infrastructure Toward Smart Education

et al. 2021

Amid the recent disease outbreaks that have been spreading across the world, the education systems in every country have witnessed a dramatic transformation. In particular, the situation has promoted online learning on an unprecedented scale, with classes being held virtually on digital platforms. This vital transformation is a major challenge in developing countries where information infrastructure for remote learning is lacking. Inspired by these observations, this study first investigated the obstacles in the way of the deployment of smart education systems (SESs) in developing countries from a technical perspective. Consequently, a detachable SES framework, named vSmartEdu, is proposed. The framework is based on a hybrid online/offline web-service model, which adopts a service-based architecture (SBA) design concept to develop smart classrooms. In particular, the online mode is activated for a web-based classroom if an Internet service is available. In contrast, the offline-version of the system is available in offline mode in packaged form, and is utilized when the Internet is not available in a local classroom. Finally, a prototype was deployed to collect feedback from learners and educators at various educational levels. The trial implementation and survey results concretely validate the feasibility and advantages of the proposed solution.

“…They are smart pedagogies, smart environments, and smart learners. Although 2 of 25 there has been a steady increase in the number of published SE articles between 2016 and 2018 [18], the studies' focus was on evaluating the learning environment [19].…”

Due to the novelty of the smart education phenomenon, a quantitative investigation of the variables that will influence the implementation of ‘smart education’ was needed. Therefore, based on a probability simple random survey of 349 Grenadian employees from tertiary institutions in the education industry, the influence of leadership and human resource capacities on smart education were investigated. Results produced from SPSS analysis software and Smart PLS revealed that leadership and human resources capacities have sufficient confidence to have a significant influence on smart education, producing a positive association with ‘smart education.’ However, this relationship is positively moderated by additional investments, such as infrastructural innovation. These findings enrich the current literature on smart education (SE) by increasing knowledge of the phenomenon through the lenses of the Actor-Network Theory and Technology Adoption Model. Accordingly, policymakers should bear these findings in mind when developing holistic strategies to guide SE’s successful enactment.
