Abstract
Using Instant Messaging to support e-learning will become important because of its instantaneity, speed, effectiveness and low cost. In this study, we developed an MSN robot to mediate and facilitate studentspsila learning. The studentspsila acceptance of the MSN robot and its effect on learning community identification and learning were investigated using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). The students reported the Perceived ease of use and usefulness of the MSN robot for learning. The finding was that the MSN robot would be beneficial to and acceptable for learning community identification when applied to learning and teaching environments.
