Abstract

This research is focusing on examining the determinants of upper secondary students in order to accept the educational technology for their learning in schools in Bangkok. A sample of 284 students who used technology for education has been assessed to find out the determinants that impact on educational technology intention for their learning. The Structural Equation Model (SEM) has been implemented. The result shows 3 interesting determinants which are positive significantly related with behavioral intention to use technology for their learning in schools: 1) pedagogy integrated with technology, 2) knowledge of technology, and 3) goal orientation.
