Summary: | Technology Acceptance Model 3 (TAM3) is an inclusive and complex model where it emphasizes the processes
that relate to perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. The model suggests that predictors for perceived
usefulness will not influence the perceived ease of use and vice versa. This quantitative research investigates
the relationship between computer self-efficacy and computer anxiety (two elements in TAM3) and Malaysian
English as a Second Language (ESL) lecturers’ attitude in integrating flipped learning approach. A set of
questionnaires was responded by 206 Malaysian ESL university lecturers and the data was analysed using
structural equation modelling (SEM). Even though there are a few other studies that show a significant
relationship between computer self-efficacy and computer anxiety and ESL lecturers’ attitude in integrating
flipped learning, this study found the relationship to be insignificant. According to responses, Malaysian
ESL lecturers have no problems in managing basic computer skills. The findings could contribute to future
studies that aim to understand user acceptance behaviour. This study could also help decision makers or
Malaysian universities in employing or improving the existing flipped learning by identifying the dominant
predictors in user acceptance. |
