A Study of Factors Influencing Intention to use Technology in Teaching Activities

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to verify factors influencing attitude to use of technology in teaching activities. For this study, a hypothetical technology acceptance model(TAM) was composed of TPACK, technostress, innovation, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, and behavioral intention to use technology in teaching activities. The survey was administered to 254 pre-service teachers. The result of this study through structural equation modeling analysis is as follows: First, TPACK significantly affects technostress. second, perceived ease of use affects perceived usefulness. Third, TPACK, technostress, perceived usefulness affects behavioral intention to use, but innovation and perceived ease of use did not affect behavioral intention to use. These results imply that TPACK, technostress, perceived usefulness are important to enhance behavioral intention to use technology in teaching activities. This study propose the constructive foundation for providing strategies raising the behavioral intention to use of technology in teaching activities
