Abstract

Abstract The purpose of this study was to produce a model for improving lecturer performance by revitalizing the components of competence, motivation, and information technology literacy. The object of this study took a sample of 160 lecturers from various private universities in the city of Makassar whose scientific fields concentrated on informatics and computer management. The use of mediation models is done using AMOS. Results of this study also state that the high competence of lecturers has not been able to contribute significantly to the improvement of information technology literacy. Low motivation does not contribute to improving information technology literacy. Competence and motivation, as well as information technology literacy, proved to be able to help significantly in improving the performance of lecturers. Besides that, information technology literacy is not able to show its role in explaining the influence of competence and motivation on the performance of lecturers. The novelty of this research is the addition of information technology literacy components as a model to improve lecturers’ performance in Higher Education.
