Taking SMEs, for example, mobile phone technology is used to perform multiple activities, especially in developing countries that are characterized by low ICT readiness. The effective uptake of any technology requires maximum acceptance amongst individuals. While various factors have been studied on how they relate and influence intentions and actual usage of mobile phones amongst employees of SMEs, there is a lack of research that focuses on the social influence in that context. This is a quantitative study performed using SEM involving 459 respondents. The study extends TAM with a subjective norm before testing a resulting theoretical model. The results show that subjective norm has a significant influence on both the perceived usefulness and behaviour intention. This paper also provides recommendations to the key stakeholders on the approaches to utilization of mobile phone technology in SMEs.","PeriodicalId":211041,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of ICT Research in Africa and the Middle East","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121075150","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, hurdles such as the complexity, limited applicability, and lack of empirical evidence of impact assessments are hinderances to use impact assessments more widely. Computer-based tools could help ease these problems as they can help the implementation process and foster usage. However, currently there are no computer-based tools available to support ICT for development (ICT4D) impact assessments in the educational domain. For this research, a computer-based tool was developed to support impact assessments of ICT4D projects in education (EDU4D). A literature study was performed and interviews with field experts were conducted to decide upon the requirements. Subsequently, a computer-based tool was developed that aims to guide the user to accurately perform a situational impact assessment method for EDU4D (SIAM-Ed) and to work in low resource environments. Finally, a small pilot study was conducted that showed positive results on the effectiveness of the tool.","PeriodicalId":211041,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of ICT Research in Africa and the Middle East","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134174672","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
