Report on Technology-Enabled Learning Competency Framework for Teachers in Zambia
The Report on Technology-Enabled Learning Competency Framework for Teachers in Zambia addresses the imperative of adapting to 21st-century education demands. Amidst the rise of technology-driven learning environments, this framework emerges as a response to evolving pedagogical landscapes. Acknowledging ICT's transformative potential in education, Zambia's Ministry of General Education seeks innovation through technology-enabled learning. Yet, teacher competencies in this realm remain uneven. The Teaching Council of Zambia intervenes to uplift teachers' continuous professional development through technology. Thus, this framework outlines vital knowledge, skills and attitudes, nurturing digital literacy and technological adeptness. Aligned with an international model designed by UNESCO and Zambia's context, the framework standardises competencies, offers guidance, fosters teacher professional growth and bridges digital disparities, ultimately enhancing education quality
Students' Behavioural Intention towards Adoption of Online Education: A Study of the Extended UTAUT Model
Online education (o-education) is gaining significant attention from education providers, students, and policy makers. This research explored students’ behaviours and intentions towards online education. The present research utilised the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) as a model to investigate these intentions and behaviours. The study incorporated UTAUT predictors along with three additional independent variables. This study adopted a cross-sectional design and used a closed-end questionnaire to collect data from 403 respondents. The data were analysed with SPSS and AMOS by utilising structural equation modeling (SEM) techniques. The results of the SEM analysis indicate that perceived value (PV) and convenience (Cnv) have positive influences on behavioural intention (BI), while perceived risk has a negative impact on behavioural intention (BI). Additionally, facilitating conditions (FC) and behavioural intention (BI) are found to positively influence use behavior (UB). The research findings suggest that demographics, including age, education and gender, influence behavioural intention (BI). The findings of the study have theoretical and practical implications, which are elaborated in the last section of this article

Effectiveness of Digital Technologies in Inclusive Learning for Teacher Preparation
In this research, digital technologies that will potentially be useful for teachers in an inclusive educational space were considered. The combined classification of digital technologies of inclusive direction, including software and hardware in three main areas, is offered: for training and repetition; to help with learning; and to expand learning opportunities. The authors developed and theoretically substantiated a model for preparing pre-service teachers to use digital technologies in an inclusive educational space. The effectiveness of the developed model was tested through a pedagogical experiment that involved three tests based on criteria. The effectiveness of the authors’ model was confirmed by the sign test at the significance level of 0.05
