Abstract

Background: Interactive whiteboard (IWB) is an important tool in computer-assisted instruction (CAI). Interactive whiteboard is an electronic instructional and interactive technology designed by use for teachers. Some studies declare that teachers’ behaviors in using interactive whiteboard only be infected by perceived usefulness, for teachers are a relatively profession. Material and methods: This paper integrated the 27 studies that used technology acceptance model (TAM) with meta-analytic structural equation modelling (Meta-Analytic SEM). Results: The estimate of perceived usefulness (PU) to Perceived ease of use (PEOU) is 0.585 (p-value<0.001). The estimate of PU to attitude (ATT) is 0.693 (p-value<0.001). The estimate of PU to behavioral intentions (BI) is 0.573 (p-value<0.001). The estimate of PEOU to ATT is 0.663 (p-value<0.001). The estimate of PEOU to BI is 0.549 (p-value<0.001). The estimate of ATT to BI is 0.663 (p-value<0.001). Conclusions: PEOU has a positive effect on PU and ATT toward using interactive whiteboard. PU has a positive effect on attitude toward using interactive whiteboard and BI to use interactive whiteboard. Attitude toward using interactive whiteboard has a positive effect on and BI to use interactive whiteboard.

Highlights

  • Information technology is rapidly changing the way people live and work, and the field of teaching is no exception

  • In the fixed-effect model, the pooled correlation coefficients were calculated as unbiased estimates of population correlation matrix

  • Past studies on the use of new information technology focused on system development and behavioral intention to use it

Summary

Introduction

Information technology is rapidly changing the way people live and work, and the field of teaching is no exception. Educational institutions have tried to provide students better learning environments by equipping them with the latest technology. This effort has encouraged instructors to use various assistive technologies such as multimedia and the Internet in their classrooms especially over the last decade, and this integration process of information technologies and education is called computer-assisted instruction (CAI) (Hsu, 2010). As a part of the integration process, the interactive whiteboard (IWB) is one of the important topics of CAI (Holmes, 2009).An interactive whiteboard (IWB) is defined as a touch-sensitive board, linked to a computer and a digital projector. Conclusions: PEOU has a positive effect on PU and ATT toward using interactive whiteboard. Attitude toward using interactive whiteboard has a positive effect on and BI to use interactive whiteboard
