Abstract

Drawing from Kantianism, utilitarianism, information systems ethical models, and South Africa Department of Education policies, this study investigated how high schools can ethically provide online learning. The study was prompted by two unethical concerns highlighted in the literature: firstly, the potential discrimination to online learning against learners who do not have access to information technology resources, and secondly, the cyber risks faced by learners from prolonged exposure to Internet connected devices. To gather data for the study, interviews were conducted with 15 schoolteachers, who were conveniently sampled from five schools in Centurion, Pretoria city, South Africa. The data was thematically analysed, and the results of the study found constructs that inform ethical provision of online learning, which are: equal access to online learning, teacher competence, teacher empathy, and cyber security of learners. The findings of this study inform the policy on providing ethical online learning in South Africa and any other country.

Abstract

Taxicab entrepreneurs who operate on e-hailing platforms in South Africa face challenges such as earning below minimum wage, lacking employment benefits, working long hours, and experiencing victimisation by traditional taxicab operators. The key question is why these entrepreneurs continue using e-hailing platforms despite unfavourable working conditions. This study proposed that technology adoption factors enable entrepreneurs to overcome challenges and encourage them to keep using e-hailing platforms. Based on this assumption, this study investigated the determinants of technology adoption that influence the attitude of taxicab entrepreneurs to continue using e-hailing platforms in South Africa. The researchers gathered quantitative data from 253 entrepreneurs in Johannesburg, South Africa and tested the hypotheses with multiple regression analysis. The results demonstrated that perceived usefulness, benefits, and security strongly influenced entrepreneurs' willingness to continue operating on e-hailing platforms. However, perceptions of convenience, trust, and perceived ease of use did not affect their decision to use e-hailing services. Theoretically, this study pinpointed the factors that drive and hinder the continued use of e-hailing applications. Practically, the results provide insights into understanding long-term usage, user satisfaction, and the success of e-hailing in developing countries undergoing digital transformation, such as South Africa.
