Description

The article proposes an integrated framework in which constructivist learning theory, the Technology Acceptance Model, and the TPACK framework are not parallel layers but "constrain and inform one another at specific theoretical junctures". Constructivism governed the staged 16-week intervention design via the ZPD trajectory from other-regulated to self-regulated performance; TAM governed the measurement framework and SEM analysis; TPACK governed instructor preparation and implementation consistency. Cross-constraints include TPACK's Technological Content Knowledge shaping TAM's Perceived Usefulness, and TAM's Behavioral Intention feeding back into constructivist engagement.

Design Implications

Context

Requirements

• Instructors need integrated technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge, which the article says requires deliberate professional development rather than developing automatically from any single domain

Constraints

• The framework is offered as a preliminary conceptual contribution subject to refinement through replication across diverse legal education settings

Target Learners

• third-year undergraduate law students in civil-law higher education

Learning Goals

• legal reasoning development
• technology acceptance for GenAI-supported learning
• discipline-specific critical evaluation of AI-generated legal analysis

Claims

• Tam Pathway Genai Adoption Law Students [+M]
• Contextual Moderators Weaker Than Perceptual Factors [+M]
