N2 - Tertiary education in Hong Kong has dramatically changed after the outbreak of COVID-19. Teaching pedagogy and delivery method have been transformed into “Contactless Learning and Teaching” and online learning. However, the focus has been on online learning while seldom analyzing the effect of “Contactless Learning and Teaching” among previous research. This research addressed this gap by studying 156 university students in Hong Kong. ATLAS, a mobile app integrated with iBeacon technology was developed to deliver learning materials in “Contactless Learning and Teaching”. The findings indicated that students who spent more time on “Contactless Learning and Teaching” have better academic performance. The active participation in “Contactless Learning and Teaching” and better academic results could also be explained by the Technology Acceptance Model in this study. The current study proves that iBeacon displays the potential of delivering learning and teaching materials amid the pandemic using the “Contactless Learning and Teaching” approach.
