Introduction Technology has been used for so many years in education. Technology allows its user to become more independent and aggressive in finding knowledge. For the past few years, Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC) has received special attention in the education world. The unlimited boundaries of knowledge-searching have definitely made MOOC as one of the choices in learning and teaching online as it is an online learning course that is open freely. Although there are many challenges in adapting
1. Technology Acceptance Model A Technology acceptance model or TAM is a famous indicator to indicate or to predict the acceptance of technology in the future. The model is presented by Davis. He adopts it from the theory of TRA and developed it to TAM for studying the context of Information Technology Acceptance without utilising the mainstream of human behaviour to be the standard of the prediction of actual system use. However, Davis Bagozze and Warshaw adapt TAM without the aspect of human behaviour
only one page of the world’s book. This statement-as it has been stated before- biased to people who are unable to travel because of financial or physical reasons. Virtual Travel platforms help those people to experience the world with this new technology. VR destination marketing simulates real visits and also the virtual experience will offer nearly real-life experiences (Pakanen & Arhippainen, 2014). Also by using VR systems, user can make better-informed decisions and also achieve more realistic
researcher has indicated various determinants or drivers that had a positive effect on factor influences the acceptance the decision. Three widely used models or theories are reviewed and discussed in relation to internet banking services. These are theory of Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA), Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB), Diffusion of Innovation Theory (DOI) and Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). In the chapter, these theories are reviewed from prior studies and an attempt is made to identify the

Four widely used models or theories are reviewed and discussed in relation to internet banking services. These are theory of Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA), Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB), Diffusion of Innovation Theory (DOI) and Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). In the chapter, these theories are reviewed from prior studies and an attempt is made to identify the
in 2003 .As a model based on eight previous adoption models, which were being used to study about the users’ adoption and acceptance of new innovations. The most important factors from the models were chosen to present another model which can be seen as a new version of TAM which is more comprehensive .The model is used to explain user intention to use an information system. Diffusion of Innovations (DOI) The Diffusion
TECHNOLOGY ACCEPTANCE FACTORS AND JOB PERFORMANCE AMONG EMPLOYEES IN GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATIONS CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Numerous governments have invested huge amounts of money and manpower to implement various technologies and information systems such as e-Government services. However, some individuals have no intention of using them. Lack of user acceptance and adoption of new technologies among employees in government organizations has long been an impediment to its implementation success.
Theoretical Framework To explain students’ preference of choosing Google Scholar as their first step of information search, Wilson's model of information behaviour (1981) will be used. Wilson's model of information behaviour is proposed by T.D. Wilson in 1981 investigating the process of information seeking. The model starts with the perceived information need of users. Then, they will try to seek information from formal (information systems) and informal sources (other information sources). Users
REVIEW OF LITERATURE Franz lehner and Richard T.Watson (2001) has described the hexagonal model in which firm is shown to interact with six stakeholders namely suppliers, intermediaries, customers, government, employees and investors. The study found that hexagon model is nevertheless quite useful and may be used to identify stakeholders and their possible interest. It also found that there is need to improvement in the mobile business applications and better interactions between firms. Johan Lembke
concluded two factors that influence consumer’s acceptance and adoption of technology were the perceived ease-of-use and perceived usefulness. In generally, it is about the belief that the use of the technology would be free of effort and degree, it is desirable to use of the technology to improve individual’s daily tasks (Davis, 1989; Fusilier and Durlabhji, 2005). Further to TAM theory, transaction convenience which involves advance technology in delivery security of payment during transaction
