The purpose of this study is to examine pre-service teachers' attitudes to computers. This study extends the technology acceptance model (TAM) framework by adding subjective norm, facilitating conditions, and technological complexity as external variables. Results show that the TAM and subjective norm, facilitating conditions, and technological complexity were significant determinants of pre-service attitudes to computer use. A multiple square correlation revealed that the proposed model in this study explained 48.7% of the attitude to computer use. Various contributions to research and practice are discussed. 相似文献

The purpose of this study is to examine the factors that influence pre-service teachers’ perceived usefulness of an Information
and Communication Technology (ICT) course that was conducted using the student-centred learning (SCL) approach. In this study,
perceived usefulness was used as the dependent variable and perceived competence, course delivery, facilitating conditions
and learning environment as independent variables. The results of this study showed that perceived competence and course delivery
have direct effects on pre-service teachers’ perceived usefulness of the course, while learning environment and facilitating
conditions affect perceived usefulness indirectly. Overall, the results support the hypothesis that the four selected variables
in this study affect perceived usefulness and that the resulting model is an adequate fit to the observed relationships among
the factors that influenced pre-service teachers’ perceived usefulness of an ICT course. 相似文献

Pedagogical beliefs are a critical factor in terms of integrating technology into teaching, but very few technology acceptance models (TAMs) have considered them. Hence, this study aims to extend the TAM by incorporating pre-service teachers’ conception of teaching and learning. The revised model examined the influence of pre-service mathematics teachers’ constructivist and traditional pedagogical beliefs on their technology acceptance through perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, attitude toward technology, and behavioral intention to use. Survey data were collected from 714 pre-service mathematics teachers in Turkey and analyzed through path analysis. The results showed that pre-service mathematics teachers’ pedagogical beliefs were more constructivist-oriented than traditional-oriented, and constructivist beliefs had a significant influence on the components of the TAM. On the other hand, pre-service teachers’ traditional-oriented beliefs did not influence their perceived usefulness of and attitudes toward technology but had positive effects on perceived ease of use. Implications for pre-service mathematics teacher education were discussed.

This study explored the antecedents of students’ intention to participate in computer-based course evaluation. The study proposed an extended Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) that integrated subjective norm and perceived relevance into TAM. Based on the responses from 149 business school students in Macao, the study identified the direct and indirect effects of subjective norm and perceived relevance on perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness and students’ intention to participate in computer-based course evaluation. The results of structural equation modelling showed that subjective norm had a positive, strong and significant effect on perceived relevance that in turn affected perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness. Besides, subjective norm and perceived usefulness had direct effects on students’ intention to participate in computer-based course evaluation. Thus, subjective norm played a major role in affecting Chinese students’ participation in course evaluation. 相似文献

ABSTRACT This study utilized the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to examine practicum teachers’ current use of mobile technology and their intentions of use in the future. A survey was conducted to better understand the relationship between practicum teachers and their potential assimilation of technology into classroom practice. The survey questionnaire was administered to 100 undergraduate students at [institute withheld], [country withheld]’s teacher preparatory university. The following four key constructs of the TAM were assessed: perceived ease of use (PEU), perceived usefulness (PU), subjective norm (SN), and behavioural intention to use (BIU). The impact of practicum teachers’ gender and academic subjects on their acceptance of technology were also investigated. The present study found strong links between PEU and PU. While practicum teachers perceived mobile technology as being useful and intended to use it in their classrooms, BIU was not significantly impacted by PEU, PU, or SN. The data also suggested that gender did not affect BIU while practicum teachers’ academic subjects might be an indicator of their future intentions to use mobile technology. With these findings, recommendations are made to further improve the integration of mobile technology in classroom practice. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the decisions of civil servants to use Web 2.0 applications while engaging in online learning. The participants were 439 civil servants enrolled in asynchronous online learning programs, using an e-learning portal provided by Taiwan's Regional Civil Service Development Institute. The participants completed a questionnaire which measured their responses to 12 constructs (perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, compatibility, peer influence, superior influence, self-efficacy, facilitating conditions, attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavior control, behavior intention, and behavior) based on the decomposed theory of planned behavior. The research results revealed that the participants’ perceived usefulness of online learning was the strongest predictor affecting their attitude. Peer influence was also the primary factor influencing their subjective norm. The construct of self-efficacy appeared to be the most important element determining their perceived behavioral control. Also, the results of the path analysis showed that the participants’ attitude was the strongest indicator of their behavior intention to use Web 2.0 applications, followed by the perceived behavior control and subjective norm. Theoretical and practical implications and recommendations are provided based on the results of the study. 相似文献

This large scale study investigated the influences that technology-related policies and teachers’ constructivist teaching beliefs have on their intention to use technology in Chinese universities. Data were collected from 696 English teachers working in 59 Chinese universities. Five variables (subjective norm, constructivist teaching belief, perceived importance of policy, computer self-efficacy and voluntariness) were examined in this study. Results indicated that perceived importance of policy, constructivist teaching beliefs and subjective norm were significant antecedents of perceived usefulness. The relationship between subjective norm and teachers’ intentions to use technology was moderated by voluntariness. Besides perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use also had significantly influenced English teachers’ behavioural intention. Overall, the research model explained 69% of variance of teachers’ intentions to use technology. This study has the potential to enrich our understanding of technology acceptance in teaching by contextualising the study in the rarely researched English teaching context in Chinese universities. The findings from this study also provide suggestions for policy makers and teacher educators. 相似文献

Researchers in educational technology have searched for factors to explain teachers’ acceptance and resistance to using technology
for instruction. Among the many identified factors, however, organizational and school factors have not yet been explored
and discussed. This study investigates the effects of school size on science and mathematics teachers’ adoption of technology
in classrooms. Using national survey data collected from 940 science and mathematics teachers at junior high schools in Taiwan,
we employed factor analyses, log-linear analyses, and three-way ANOVA techniques to examine interactions among school factors
and teacher factors. Results obtained from the log-linear analyses suggested that both the interactions of school region with
school size and school size with technology users were needed to explain teachers’ use of educational technology in classrooms.
It appears that teachers at small schools were more likely to use technology for instructional purposes. Additionally, results
of the study revealed that teachers at small schools tended to have positive attitudes toward technology use and that among
users of educational technology in southern Taiwan, teachers at small schools designed and used significantly more instructional
activities with technology. This study suggests that small schools provide a better environment for science and mathematics
teachers to implement educational technology in instruction. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to develop a mobile learning acceptance model for pre-service teachers and to examine the relationships among technology acceptance factors. The literature on mobile learning acceptance lacks studies on pre-service teachers and studies that include concrete mobile learning scenarios. To overcome these problems, we have developed and implemented a mobile-technology-enabled information technology course. The data collection and analysis were conducted in two separate studies. First, we developed a mobile learning acceptance scale and applied confirmatory factor analysis with 408 participants. The final instrument included 28 items measuring eight technology acceptance factors, namely behavioral intention, attitude towards use, perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, social influence, facilitating conditions, self-efficacy, and anxiety. After this, we collected a new set of data from 316 participants to examine the relationships among the factors using structural equation modeling. In both studies, we investigated the respective models’ invariance across gender and discipline groups, and both models fulfilled invariance requirements. The results indicated that perceived ease of use and social influence have direct effects on behavioral intention, whereas self-efficacy has an indirect effect. Depending on the group, the explained variance of behavioral intention ranged between 18.1% and 60.6%.

The technology acceptance model (TAM) uses perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use to predict the intention to use a technology which is important when deciding to invest in a technology. Its extension for e-learning (the general extended technology acceptance model for e-learning; GETAMEL) adds subjective norm to predict the intention to use. Technology acceptance is typically measured after the technology has been used for at least three months. This study aims to identify whether a minimal amount of exposure to the technology using video demonstrations is sufficient to predict the intention to use it three months later. In two studies—one using TAM and one using GETAMEL—we showed students of different cohorts (94 and 111 participants, respectively) video demonstrations of four digital technologies (classroom response system, classroom chat, e-lectures, mobile virtual reality). We then measured technology acceptance immediately after the demonstration and after three months of technology use. Using partial least squares modelling, we found that perceived usefulness significantly predicted the intention to use three months later. In GETAMEL, perceived usefulness significantly predicted the intention to use for three of the four learning technologies, while subjective norm only predicted the intention to use for mobile virtual reality. We conclude that video demonstrations can provide valuable insight for decision-makers and educators on whether students will use a technology before investing in it.
Practitioner notes
What is already known about this topic- The technology acceptance model helps decision-makers to determine whether students and teachers will adopt a new technology.
- Technology acceptance is typically measured after users have used the technology for three to twelve months.
- Perceived usefulness is a strong predictor of intention to use the technology.
- The predictive power of perceived ease of use for the intention to use varies from insignificant to strong.
- For the four digital learning technologies (classroom chat, classroom response system, e-lectures and mobile virtual reality), we measure technology acceptance after a video demonstration and again after three months of usage.
- Using structural equation modelling, we are able to predict intention to use after three months, with perceived usefulness measured after the video demonstration.
- We replicate these findings with a second study using the general extended technology acceptance model.
- Short video demonstrations can provide information for educators to predict whether students will use a technology.
- Early impressions of perceived usefulness are very important and valuable to predict whether students will use a technology.

Teacher receptivity to system-wide curriculum reform in the initiation stage: a Chinese perspective 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
Few studies deal with teachers’ receptivity in the initiation stage of educational change, especially in a non-western cultural
context like Mainland China. This study aims at investigating teachers’ receptivity to the system-wide curriculum reform of
the senior secondary education in the initiation stage and understanding the factors influencing teachers’ receptivity in
Mainland China. Questionnaire survey with open-ended question (n = 763) is employed to explore teachers’ receptivity in four selected experimental provinces, i.e., the first group of provinces
which are selected by Ministry of Education to implement the curriculum reform. Results indicate teachers have positive attitudes
and behavioral intentions toward promoting the curriculum reform of senior secondary education, and they consider the reform
is valuable but difficult to carry out. The existing theoretical model can explain teachers’ behavioral intentions quite well,
but its predicting ability to teachers’ general attitudes is limited, which indicates some new variables that need to be considered,
too. Implications of this study and suggestions for future research are also discussed in the article. 相似文献

As many Korean universities have recommended the implementation of mobile learning (m‐learning) for various reasons, the number of such tertiary learning opportunities has steadily grown. However, little research has investigated the factors affecting university students' adoption and use of m‐learning. A sample of 288 Konkuk university students participated in the research. The process by which students adopt m‐learning was explained using structural equation modeling technique and the Linear Structural Relationship (LISREL) program. The general structural model based on the technology acceptance model included m‐learning self‐efficacy, relevance for students' major (MR), system accessibility, subjective norm (SN), perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, attitude (AT), and behavioral intention to use m‐learning. The study results confirmed the acceptability of the model to explain students' acceptance of m‐learning. M‐learning AT was the most important construct in explaining the causal process in the model, followed by students' MR and SN. 相似文献

In recent years, there has been an exponential growth of the explorations around the pedagogical use of Web 2.0 technologies in China. This study offers an alternate perspective by examining predictors of pre-service teachers’ uptake of Web 2.0 technologies for teaching purposes. On the basis of prior related research focusing on the pedagogical use of ICT, an eight-factor research model was hypothesised. Data were collected from two universities in China through a questionnaire (N?=?464). Structural equation modelling analysis results suggested that perceived usefulness, perceive enjoyment, subjective norm, technological pedagogical and content knowledge, and facilitating conditions had statistically significant direct effects on intention to use Web 2.0 technologies. The findings can help stakeholders in China (e.g. teacher educators, school leaders, and education policy makers) develop a better understanding of the realities of teachers’ pedagogical use Web 2.0 technologies in China. 相似文献

Given the paradox between pervasive promotion of technology use in English teaching and lack of studies about teachers’ technology acceptance in China, this study aims to examine intentions of English teachers in China to use technology in their classroom teaching. Based on the technology acceptance model, eight variables including perceived usefulness (PU), perceived ease of use (PEU), attitude toward use, behavioral intention (BI), computer self-efficacy (CSE), technology complexity (TC), facilitating conditions (FC), and constructivist teaching beliefs (CTBs) were incorporated to examine relationships among these variables. Data were collected from 183 English teachers at 5 Chinese universities via a self-report questionnaire and analyzed using a structural equation model. Results indicated that the proposed model has a good fit. Three variables – PU, FC, and CTBs were found to be significant predictors of attitude toward use, while PEU and TC were not. Additionally, PU, CSE, and CTBs are significant antecedents for teachers’ BIs to use technology. This study contributed to the understanding of technology acceptance theories by contextualizing the current study to Chinese educational context. It also provided valuable references for technology-related policy-making and teachers’ professional development. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of motivational and volitional email messages (MVEM) on preservice
teachers’ motivation, volition, performance, and their attitudes toward technology integration. Each of four sections in an
educational technology course for preservice teachers was randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group which received
MVEM constructed based on audience analysis; and the other which received placebo email messages consisting of class activities
reminders without audience analysis. Results indicated that the group provided with MVEM showed higher volition and more positive
attitudes toward technology integration than the group provided with placebo messages even though there was no difference
in motivation or performance. These results suggest that MVEM can serve as an effective tool for facilitating preservice teachers’
positive attitudes toward technology integration. Implications for the design and development of interventions or systems
for technology integration are discussed and further research is recommended. 相似文献

Research in the area of educational technology has claimed that Web technology has driven online pedagogy such that teachers
need to know how to use Web technology to assist their teaching. This study provides a framework for understanding teachers’
Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge-Web (TPCK-W), while integrating Web technology into their pedagogical practice.
Furthermore, contemporary educational researchers have highlighted the significance of teachers’ self-efficacy, conceptualized
as the teachers’ perceptions of their own competence at teaching, and related to instructional strategies as well as teaching
effectiveness. The major purpose of this study was to investigate teachers’ perceived self-efficacy in terms of their TPCK-W.
This study aimed to develop a new questionnaire, namely the Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge-Web (TPCK-W) Survey
to explore teachers’ self-efficacy in terms of their TPCK-W, and additionally to assess their attitudes toward Web-based instruction.
The participants in this study were 558 teachers from elementary school to high school level in Taiwan. Both exploratory and
confirmatory factor analyses indicated that the TPCK-W survey developed in this study has satisfactory validity and reliability
characteristics. The results indicate a lack of general knowledge about Web-related pedagogy amongst the teachers surveyed.
The correlations between teachers’ self-efficacy in terms of their TPCK-W, their attitudes regarding Web-based instruction,
and their background variables were also examined. Correlations were found between self-efficacy and positive attitudes to
web-based instruction. Older and more experienced teachers were found to have lower levels of self-efficacy with respect to
TPCK-W, though teachers with more experience of using the web (including for instruction) had higher levels of self-efficacy
with respect to TPCK-W. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to explore the utility of the theory of planned behavior for predicting the behavioral intentions of teachers enrolled in the Institute in Physical Science, an EESA, Title II program funded by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. In particular, the study investigated three determinants of teachers' behavioral intentions (BI) set forth in the theory of planned behavior, namely, attitude toward the behavior (AB), subjective norm (SN), and perceived behavioral control (PBC). The behavior of interest in this study was the intention of teachers in grades 5/6 or 9/10 who were enrolled in the Institute to use 50% of the activities and investigations completed in the program with students they would teach during the next school year. Data were collected from 50 elementary and secondary teachers. Simple and hierarchical regression analyses were used to determine the relative contributions of attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control (and their interactions) to the prediction of behavioral intention. Results of this study indicated that attitude, subjective norm, and perceived behavioral control made significant contributions to the prediction of behavioral intention. Examination of the data blocked on external variables revealed attitude toward the behavior to be the single most important predictor of behavioral intention. Intent to perform the behavior appears to be totally under the control of most teachers, with little need for social support and with ample resources and sufficient opportunities available to perform the behavior. 相似文献
