Abstract
The ECE Dept. at the University of Alberta uses Tablet PCs as a key resource in the Software Engineering capstone design course. We are currently developing a survey instrument (piloted in 2009) to measure the utility of these Tablets. The instrument is based on technology adoption theory, which posits that specific psychological states are antecedents to the usage of a new technology. We perform an exploratory factor analysis of the pilot survey, with an emphasis on our operationalization of the construct of Use of the Technology. However, small-sample-size effects prevent us from fully validating the model.
