• Resumen

  • This research examines the adoption of digital tools by university students in the field of geosciences based on the technology acceptance model (TAM) for emerging economies. A quantitative analysis was conducted using a questionnaire administered to 198 students at the National University of Colombia. Among the results, the perception of self-efficacy stands out as one of the most influential variables of the model, which is associated with the perceived ease of use of digital tools. Likewise, perceived usefulness conditions the level of acceptance of digital tools in teaching geoscience subjects.
