This empirical study explores student perceptions and technology acceptance regarding online learning in higher education. Utilizing the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) as the theoretical framework, we surveyed 500 university students across various disciplines to assess their attitudes towards online learning platforms. The survey measured perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, behavioral intention to use, and actual usage of online learning technologies. Results indicate a generally positive reception, with perceived usefulness and ease of use significantly influencing students' intentions to engage with online learning. However, challenges such as technical issues and lack of interaction were also identified. This study highlights critical factors that influence technology acceptance and offers insights for educators and institutions aiming to enhance the effectiveness and adoption of online learning systems.

This study investigates the intricate relationship between Information Technology (IT) integration, user perception, and performance outcomes in Kenyan public hospitals. As healthcare systems globally move towards digitalization, understanding the dynamics within these specific contexts becomes imperative. This research utilizes a mixed-method approach, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews, to analyze the impact of IT systems on healthcare delivery and user satisfaction. Key findings indicate that successful IT integration significantly enhances operational efficiency, patient care, and overall hospital performance. However, user perception plays a critical role, mediating the effectiveness of IT adoption. The study underscores the importance of training, stakeholder involvement, and continuous evaluation to optimize IT systems in healthcare settings. These insights aim to guide policymakers and hospital administrators in designing strategies that foster effective IT implementation, ultimately improving healthcare outcomes in Kenyan public hospitals.
