Investigating the Impact of Mobile Application on Learning Among Teachers Based on Technology Acceptance Model (TAM)

Abstract

    Mobile learning and digital communication are known as the most advanced tool to get competitive edge over other in the current globalized world. The current research study tries to investigate the adaptation of mobile acceptance model among teachers in District Bannu. Researchers try to investigate the teachers' attitude, performance and learning capabilities with the usage of mobile technology. Target population of the study is 2000 newly recruited teachers, while sample size of 220 was drawn based on the approach of (Sekran, 2004) known population. Data was analyzed through SPSS statistical procedure. Results depict that all the variables having significant association. However, teacher performance shows 51% increase in their knowledge due to Mobile application to their studies. Based on the findings it is concluded that performance and mobile application to education can further enhance the capabilities of teachers.
