Abstract
The aim of this study was on understanding what factors have influence on students’ acceptance of educational applications on the smartphone. Specifically, this study focused on to illuminate influential prompts on learner’s acceptance as well as on to launch a theory-based model related to the prompts. For data analysis, we used skills from grounded theory methodology. The data was gathered through interviews with high school students in South Korea. As a result, we found core prompts in terms of use of smartphones for educational purpose. Then we laid on the prompts on the extended Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). We found that self-directed learning readiness was an influential factor in the acceptance of educational applications.
