An EHealth Adoption Framework for Developing Countries: A Systematic Reviewhiij
There is growing interest in the rate of eHealth uptake resulting from the increased potential to advance the quality of healthcare services in both the developed and developing countries. Although the implementation of information and communication technology to support healthcare delivery would greatly address the quality and accessibility challenges in healthcare as well as reduction in the cost of healthcare delivery, the adoption of eHealth has not been fully realized. This study aimed at conducting a systematic literature review to establish the factors associated with the adoption of eHealth and propose a context-specific framework for successful adoption of eHealth technologies in developing countries such as Uganda. The systematic literature review process was guided by the Systematic Review Protocol. The review of 29 journals from the period 2009-2021 showed that, although the most widely used frameworks in the developing countries were Technology Adoption Model (TAM), Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) framework and Technology Organization Environment (TOE) framework, there were other salient factors reported by other researchers that contributed to the adoption of eHealth in developing countries. A novel framework for adoption of eHealth in the local context with eight (8) dimensions namely; Sociodemographic, Technology, Information, Socio-cultural, Organization, Governance, Ethical and legal and Financial dimensions is derived and presented as result of the research.

Extending utaut to explain social media adoption by microbusinessesIJMIT JOURNAL
This paper extends the use of the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) to explain social media adoption by microbusinesses. A canonical action research method is used to study social media adoption in microbusiness, and a post positivist approach is used to report the results based on a predetermined premise. It is found that the major constructs of performance and effort expectancy played an insignificant role, and social influence and facilitating conditions did not influence the behavioral and
adoption intentions of social media by microbusiness owners. Owner characteristics and codification effort dominated the use behavior. The goal of microbusiness owners in gaining additional customers leads to behavioral modification resulting in replacing of behavioral intention with goals as a superior method of predicting adoption behavior within the context of microbusinesses.
Technology Acceptance Model for Mobile Health SystemsIOSR Journals
Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to explore the factors that influence health-related consumer’s
acceptance to use the mobile technology as a tool for receiving healthcare services. Based on technology
acceptance model (TAM), this paper provides a better understanding of antecedent of key acceptance constructs
(e.g. intention to use, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use). The proposed research model and hypotheses
validated and tested with data collected from 302 Egyptians and Yemenis patients, health professionals, and
general health users. The results are analyzed using a number of statistical techniques including partial least
squares. The key findings obtaining from the results of the three surveyed stakeholders reveal that: (1) ninety
percent are indented to use mobile health services. (2) While intention to use has greatly influenced by
perceived usefulness, the impact of perceived ease of use varies. (3) Perceived value, perceived ease of use and
portability factors are significantly affect perceived usefulness. (4) Self-efficacy and technology anxiety have a
great impact on perceived ease of use. (5) The impact of the rest of the suggested factors ranged from medium,
low, and insignificant. The research made an in-depth exploration and examination of the factors that influence
user’s intention to use mobile health services focusing on technological, cultural, organizational, political, and
social aspects whereas most of the previous studies considered only one or two aspects together. The proposed
model can be applied to assess mobile health user’s acceptance, thereby help mobile health developers and
providers to develop better mobile health applications that meet the needs of the potential users.

type of exam; these include, True or False, Multiple Choice and Fill in the Blanks.
There are three
account types based on the intended users. One is the Administrator Account; this can be used to create
instructor accounts. It can also be used to delete or suspend other accounts based on activity status. The Instructor
Account allows teachers to create
student accounts and enroll the same. This account can be used also to create,
activate, edit, delete exams and monitor students' performances. The Student Account is for the officially enrolled students
where they can take exams and view scores even from
previous examinations.
This software allows instructors to keep track of students' performances from all exams since the results will be stored in a
database linked to an online system. While taking the online exam, students can choose the number of exa
m questions
that will be displayed on the screen at a given time.
A student can take the exam only on the specified date and time set by the instructor. Ideally, a particular exam should be
taken only once. In cases of retakes due to valid reasons and spe
cial exam considerations, the instructor is given the
option to administer the previously activated exam, edit or create a new set of questions.
One limitation though, this online system is not to be used to compute for the class performance for the final
grade since
this requires other components such as seat works, graded recitations, laboratory activities, etc. This only computes and
shows the scores from previous exams and the average.

9. History and Types of Computer Tests http://www.pearsonville.com/html/images/centre.jpg
10. History The field of computer based testing (CBT) saw tremendous growth in the 1990s because of the wide availability of computers in educational settings. “In 1992, for example, the Graduate Record Examinations became available in a computer-based form, and in computer-adaptive form in 1993” (Bugbee, 1996, p. 282). As computer based testing grew it quickly became apparent that guidelines and standards had to be developed to ensure the quality and integrity of computer based tests.
11. Development of Guidelines and Standards “In 1986, The American Psychological Association (APA) published guidelines for the development, use, and interpretation of computerized testing (APA, 1986). These guidelines supplement the Standard for Educational and Psychological Testing (APA, 1985) for issues unique to testing by computer. Although the guidleines’ authority affects only the memberships of the APA, AERA, and NCME, they also set de facto standards for test and software developers and publishers and have been cited in Supreme Court decisions (National Standards, 1993)” (Bugbee, 1996, p. 286).

Advantages of Computer Based Testing “Reduce testing time (Bunderson, Inouye, & Olsen, 1989; English, Reckase, & Patience, 1977; Green, 1988; Olsen, Maynes, Slawson, & Ho, 1986; Wise & Plake, 1989); Obtain more information about test takers (Wise & Plake, 1989); Increase test security (Grist, Rudner, & Wise, 1989); Provide instant scoring (Bugbee, 1992; Bugbee & Bernt, 1990; Kyllonen, 1991; Mazzeo & Harvey, 1988); Scheduled more easily than paper-and-pencil administered tests (Bugbee, 1992; Hambleton, Zaal, & Pieters, 1991; Wise & Plake, 1989)” (Bugbee, 1996, p. 282-283)
13. Computer Based Testing (CBT) Computer Adaptive Testing (CAT) “Computer-based testing uses a computer to give exactly the same test as one in a paper-and-pencil format” (Bugbee, 1996, p. 283) Currently, most courses at UTMB Health SON require students to take PROCTORED computer based tests for assessment purposes. “Computer Adaptive Testing is a unique type of CBT which enables greater precision and efficiency in some forms of assessment by first estimating an examinee's proficiency level ... and then adapting to it, presenting only those items that are expected to give the most information about that individual” (Norris, 2001, p. 23). Types of Computer Testing
15. UTMB Health SON Policies and Regulations for Proctored Computer Based Exams The UTMB SON Perception Online Exam Policy states that the exams are secure and that each page of questions is saved before moving on so that the exam can be retrieved during a time out or technical problem. Guidelines are given that encourage the student to read all exam documentation, check syllabus for relative dates, attempt to take the exam during regular business hours so that technical support is available, and to communicate with the instructor in the event of extenuating circumstances that interfere with the student’s completion of the exam. The policy explains that the student must sign up the proctor and be sure the individual is available for all scheduled exams. A backup proctor can also be assigned a minimum of two weeks before testing.
17. Unproctored Computer Based Tests In order to implement unproctored exams modifications will have to be made to policies and regulations governing exam administrations. To prevent problems in online testing, it is suggested that professors describe the testing protocol in the syllabus and discuss it in class. This informs students as to the expectations of utilizing online exams at home or in school. Additionally, specific software is available to help safeguard against unethical test taking.

19. Conclusion Policies and regulations are an important part of any organization. At UTMB Health SON, educators are aware of the changing trends in education and are seeking different ways to administer computer based tests to meet the needs of all learners.
