Design/methodology/approach The authors gather data from 301 respondents various academic institutions in United Arab Emirates (UAE) operationalizing established theoretical constructs. adopt a covariance-based structural equation modeling (SEM) approach. Findings results reveal that IDT TRI significantly positively affect attitudes toward implementing Besides, attitude fully mediates relationship between IDT, constructs behavioral intention (BI). Moreover, this proves RTC plays major converging BI place learning into use. Research limitations/implications limitation authors' work is employs cross-sectional UAE only, were gathered during coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
