The Mobile agility framework: an exploratory study of Mobile Technology enhancing organizational agility
Journal of Theoretical and Applied Electronic Commerce Research, 2015Co-Authors: Vlad Krotov, Iris A. Junglas, Douglas J. SteelAbstract:Organizational agility is a key factor for survival and success in today's global, interconnected and turbulent business environment. Mobile Technology, due to its anywhere, anytime characteristics, can be a promising tool for enhancing organizational agility. Yet there are no studies that guide organizations in leveraging Mobile Technology for improving speed and responsiveness to market needs. This paper attempts to fill this gap by exploring the question of how Mobile Technology can be used to enhance organizational agility. We use an exploratory research approach that analyzes archival data of 89 case studies describing contemporary applications of Mobile Technology within organizations. After developing a Mobile agility framework and using it as our analytical lens, we examine each case to identify specific ways in which Mobile Technology is used to improve operational, customer, and partnering agility. The main contribution of this study is identification of emergent clusters of agility-enhancing mechanisms based on the benefits of Mobile Technology. The discovered benefits and mechanisms can guide organizations on improving their agility with the help of Mobile Technology. We also formulate research questions that should be addressed by future studies in order to produce a more comprehensive theoretical understanding of how Mobile Technology improves organizational agility.

Mobile Technology as an Enabler of Organizational Agility
2006 International Conference on Mobile Business, 2006Co-Authors: Vlad Krotov, Iris A. JunglasAbstract:Business agility is a relatively new concept in management that has been developed in response to the turbulence of today's marketplace. In this paper we explore the question of how Mobile Technology can be used as an enabler of organizational agility. To address this question, we use an exploratory research approach that employs grounded theory combined with multiple case studies. Using the Sambamurthy et al. agility framework, we explore more than 100 case studies. Our findings include clusters of agility- enhancing benefits that emerge from using Mobile Technology in an organizational context.

Mobile Technology acceptance for library information service: A theoretical model
International Conference on Information Society (i-Society 2013), 2013Co-Authors: Sununthar Vongjaturapat, Singha ChaveesukAbstract:The rapid growth of Mobile Technology provides a great potential to support users to work in a dynamic Mobile environment. Research findings indicate that students expect to access their institutes' service from their handheld devices. To cope with this trend, this paper aims to propose a theoretical model for academic institutes and service providers by addressing the following question: What are the key determinant factors for the Mobile Technology acceptance in using library information services? How to integrate between patron' perspective and technical perspective in the process of Mobile Technology acceptance in library context? While the Venketesh (2012), UTAUT2 model helps understanding and predicting the drivers of acceptance of new information technologies by consumers, the Goodhue (1995), task-Technology fit model helps explaining how Technology leads to the impact of user involvement on performance when Technology provides features and support that fit the requirement of a task. Adapting the UTAUT2 model requires re-specification to suit a specific information system. The re-specific model introduces new constructs and new measuring instruments. New constructs will add to the UTAUT2 model as well as including integration variables namely Technology characteristics and task characteristics. The research includes both exploratory and quantitative techniques. The structural equation model will be used for data analysis. The contribution of the model is a design guideline for the Mobile Technology function that is consistent with the library context.

Analysis of factors influencing the Mobile Technology acceptance for library information services: Conceptual model
2013 International Conference on Information Technology and Electrical Engineering (ICITEE), 2013Co-Authors: Singha Chaveesuk, Sununthar Vongjaturapat, Nopporn ChotikakamthornAbstract:Increasing powerful Mobile Technology, for example tablet devices, empower learners to seek information not only at home but also in Mobile learning scenarios, virtually anywhere and anytime. However, the variety of library material types such as e-books, e-journals, images, audio and movies, require different levels of human- computer interaction. Moreover, the different library material types may be subject to different usability constraints. Thus, it is important for the academic library to look at how student use their Mobile Technology for library information services. This paper aims to propose a theoretical model for academic institutes and telecommunication service providers by addressing the following question: What are the key determinant factors for the Mobile Technology acceptance in using library information services? How the patron' s perspective and technical perspective are integrated in the process of Mobile Technology acceptance for library information services? We extend the extending Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology model (UTAUT2) to the context of library information services by examining the moderating role of library material type. Adapting the UTAUT2 model requires respecification to suit a specific information system as well as including integration variables namely Technology characteristics, task characteristics and attitude. The contribution of the model is a design guideline for the Mobile Technology function that is consistent with the library information services. Especially, for more better service management and delivery.

impact of Mobile Technology on student attitudes engagement and learning
Computers in Education, 2017Co-Authors: Houston Heflin, Jennifer W Shewmaker, Jessica NguyenAbstract:Mobile devices and collaborative learning environments are common tools in education but not all collaborative learning is structured the same. This study evaluated student learning in three different collaborative learning environments, both with and without Mobile Technology, to assess students' engagement, critical thinking, and attitudes toward collaborative learning. The results indicate that Mobile Technology is associated with positive student perceptions of collaborative learning but with increased disengagement by students during class. In addition, the level of students' critical thinking was more closely associated with the tools used to construct written responses than with the collaborative learning environment style. Students constructing paragraph responses on a Mobile device demonstrated significantly less critical thinking than those who used a computer keyboard or wrote responses by hand. Speech and eye contact are strong indicators of student engagement in groups.Technology serves important functions but often distracts from engagement.Critical thinking is more evident in typed or written versus texted essays.
