This article explores the promotion of learning and student engagement through various approaches, particularly design thinking, which effectively fosters essential 21st-century skills. The integration of generative AI into instructional design enables the precise customization of content and pedagogical strategies to meet the individual needs of learners. When applied in conjunction with generative AI, the design thinking process supports a student-centered learning environment by actively engaging students in the problem-solving process. To implement this approach effectively, teachers must develop competencies in utilizing design thinking as a pedagogical framework. These competencies encompass three key components: 1. Knowledge—a thorough understanding of both the design thinking process and the relevant technologies; 2. Skills—the ability to communicate effectively and promote creative and critical thinking; and 3. Attitudes—openness and flexibility in adapting instructional methods to the diverse and evolving needs of learners. The goal of this integrated approach is to cultivate meaningful and personalized learning experiences. Moreover, the researcher points out that there are ethical considerations when employing artificial intelligence in education. Teachers and educational practitioners must remain aware of the technological limitations and ensure that AI is implemented in a safe, responsible, and effective manner. Such awareness contributes to maximizing the benefits of AI while safeguarding the integrity and equity of the learning experience.

FACTORS EFFECTING STUDENTS’ INTENTION USING VISUAL COMMUNICATION DESIGN TECHNOLOGY: TECHNOLOGY ACCEPTANCE MODEL AT QINGDAO HARBOR VOCATIONAL AND TECHNICAL COLLEGE, CHINA

Wang Yongchun, Patima Rungruang — Mon, 30 Jun 2025 00:00:00 +0700

This study explores the factors influencing students' intention to use the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) in the context of visual communication design technology. The research employs TAM as a theoretical framework to analyze the key variables that affect students' intention to adopt visual communication design technologies. The objectives of this study are 1) to examine students’ behavioral intention, 2) to investigate students’ use of the TAM, and 3) to pinpoint the elements that influence students' desire to employ the TAM. We used a quantitative research approach, administering a structured questionnaire to a sample of 226 students to collect data. A Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.97 confirmed the overall reliability of the instrument. Statistical analyses included descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis.

The results indicate that both perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use significantly influence students’ behavioral intention to use the TAM. We propose strategic recommendations based on these findings to optimize the integration of technology within educational settings. By enhancing students' engagement with the TAM framework, educational institutions can foster a more dynamic and effective learning environment that maximizes the benefits of technology adoption.
