Abstract
Technology enhanced learning (TEL) has come into prominence and become more relevant after the onset of COVID-19 pandemic. However, it is not known that whether TEL will be socially sustainable, and what factors can affect its sustainability. Therefore, in this work we propose a new research model based on UTAUT2 and the Big 5 Personality Framework that considers several motivational factors together with the different personality traits of the students. Data is collected from two Asian countries and analyzed using a Covariance-based SEM method. Results suggest that motivational factors of performance expectancy, hedonic motivation, social influence, price value and habit significantly affect the social sustainability of TEL. Likewise, the personality traits of agreeableness and neuroticism are also relevant. Suitable theoretical and practical implications are discussed based on the results.
