Online Teaching, University Teachers and the COVID-19 Pandemic: Exploration of Technology Acceptance Model (TAM)

Abstract

    The aim of the study was to explore the effectiveness of the online mode of teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic. For this research a qualitative method was applied and the instrument used to collect data was semi-structured interviews from university teachers. The research conducted under the umbrella of Technology acceptance model. How the teachers from public and private sector universities adopted technology during the COVID-19 and how they engage their students to manage this lockdown period without delay of any class. The findings of the study revealed that teachers of public sector universities faced challenges in the adoption of technology to conduct classes online but the private sector universities through proper management and resources have managed this tech-based leaning during lockdown. When it comes to the public sector universities, the teachers were not facilitated by their institutions to manage this online teaching mode.
