“…The study identified that computer compatibility is one of the predictors to explain AUC among MSE secondary school teachers as had been found in previous studies [4,28,29] . MSE secondary school teachers need to be compatible with the hardware and software found in computers, for this is the channel through which they get into the world of computer usage.…”

“…Computer compatibility is defined as teacher's acceptance of computer being well-suited with their working life styles and consistent with their existing values and able to satisfy their personal needs [4] . Morton [28] and Dusick [29] study provide evidence of the significant effect of computer compatibility on AUC. The study showed that teachers enhance their usage of computers since they found they are compatible with it.…”

Technologies advocate researchers had identified a number of factors that affect individual teachers' usage of computers. Nevertheless mix results were reported in literature. Hence, this study used personal characteristics and the technology acceptance constructs to understand the Actual Usage of Computer (AUC) among Malaysian teachers. The final model derived from this study was able to explain and predict approximately 54.5% of the variance in AUC. There were five variables significantly predicts the AUC and the strongest among them is perceived ease-of-use, followed by perceived usefulness, job relevance, computer compatibility and attitude. It is believed that the findings of this study would add new perspective on understanding the complexities associated with computer and learning among teachers.

ABSTRACT.Computer-based instructional applications are considered an effective alternative to traditional teaching methods and today in numerous educational and training settings, interactive computer programs are used to teach young students and adults computer literacy skills. The purpose of this study is to compare the attitudes and motivations of students who attended a computer-based in-class computer literacy course with the attitudes and

“…Personal and behavioral factors that have been identified frequently are attitude, perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, self-efficacy and computer compatibility. On the other hand, the environmental factors of subjective norm and job relevance too may contribute to or inhibit teachers' performance in using computers [34] .…”

The growing body of literature associated with educational computer use had examined numerous variables and interrelationships in order to gain a better understanding of computer beliefs and use of computers within education. Teachers computer acceptance is an important factor to the successful use of computers in education. Thus it is significant to draw attention to the factors affecting teachers computer use and its implications to teachers professional development strategies. This article would be useful for future researchers who are seeking directions to further examine the determinants of computer technology acceptance and its utilization based on the technology acceptance model
