Abstract [eng] Technology is embedded in all walks of people’s lives, including the diverse forms and types of contemporary education. With technology becoming increasingly popular in a variety of contexts, scholars have developed models that allow to explore how technology-enhanced learning (TEL) isadopted. One of the key prerequisites for TEL adoption is its acceptance by the involved users. TEL acceptance can be hindered if technology is implemented without properly exploring its benefits and limitations. They should be also well understood by policy makers who offer top-down guidelines to employ TEL as a means of modernizing educational systems across the globe. Therefore, the present paper highlights the most prominent topics of the debates on implementing TEL when it comes to the two opposite ends of the spectrum, namely technology supporters on the one end and critics on the other.
