Proposing a Model to Explain Teachers’ Intention to Use Technology

Abstract

In this paper, the author identifies the constructs that influence teachers’ intention to use technology for instructional purposes. Drawing from widely used and validated theories and models with origins from social psychology, a total of seven constructs were identified to develop a research model. Following, twelve hypotheses were formulated to describe the relationships among the constructs and the teachers’ intention to use. Further studies on the research model for greater validity and expansion are suggested.
