Anticipated Acceptability of Blended Learning Among Lay Health Care Workers in Malawi: Qualitative Analysis Guided by the Technology Acceptance Model
A decentralized blended learning approach may be an acceptable method of enhancing ICT knowledge and skills among lay HCWs in Malawi, although a broad range of external factors need to be considered. Our next step is to integrate these findings into a blended learning package and examine perceived acceptability of the package in the context of a cluster randomized controlled trial.
