Abstract
The purpose of this study is to examine the adoption of IoT applications for educational purposes by focusing on students' perspectives. To validate the internet of educational things (IoET) applications' acceptance and usage, the main constructs of UTAUT2 theory were integrated with innovativeness and social support constructs. This study adopts a quantitated study method and examined empirically through smart PLS-SEM software, an online questionnaire is established and disseminated to Taibah university students. Results revealed that social support, facilitated conditions, innovativeness, and effort expectancy of UTAUT2 constructs had the strongest effect on IoET applications' acceptance and usage respectively. Whereas performance expectancy, and perceived usefulness had the weakest effect on IoET adoption respectively. On the other hand, the relationship between perceived ease of use and IoET behavioral intention were not supported because of insignificant relationships. The results demonstrated in this study potentially assist the universities to understand the main determinists of using IoET applications acceptance and usage from students' perspectives to integrate the IoT concept in teaching and learning.
