Users and technologies in education: A pending course

This research aims to determine which factors influence the Intention
to Use Technologies in the education sphere, by using Technology Acceptance
Model with university students across two technologies having similar charac‐
teristics: SIGA and SGDI. The results shows that the most important factor when
determining Intention to Use of an educational technology is Perceived Useful‐
ness. Subsequently, TAM is applied considering the moderating effect of inten‐
sity, finding that for intensive SGDI users, the influence of Perceived Usefulness
is greater than in normal users, and conversely, the influence of Perceived Ease
of Use in intensive users of SIGA is greater than that in normal users, whereas
the impact of Perceived Usefulness decreases. Recommendations states that
future investigations should focus on the study of the impact generated by the use
of software in classrooms, both for students during their training process and for
professors in their educational work.
