Abstract
In this paper, the opportunity of implementing behavioral design into learning
systems is elaborated from a theoretical aspect. Technology has power to change
human behavior and habits. Anywhere anytime connection concept provides ease
of access, variable content, low cost, which attracts the users affecting many aspects
of life. Education is affected from this trend and it led instructors to move e-learning
environments. Although e-learning systems have many advantages, motivating students
online can be challenging because of content, isolation, poor communication with
instructors, and lack of connection between content and the students’ needs. On the
other hand, most of the students are already addicted to digital content due to habit
forming products in daily life. Once they become addicted to technology, the books and
traditional education or content are not interesting for them. The biggest problem of
the education can be considered as the students who are not interested with the content
and do not want to learn. With the behavioral design aware educational technologies,
permanence, continuity and qualification can be given to learning, engagement level
can be improved and better study habits can be formed.
