Abstract

This study aims to investigate factors that contribute to teacher’s behavioral intention to use online communities. To answer the research questions, the survey instrument--The Teacher’s Behavioral Intention to Use the Online Community Questionnaire is designed and performed on simple random samples. The collected data is analyzed using descriptive statistics and regression analysis. The results of this study show that all the research hypotheses are supported by regression analysis except for the relationship between Self-efficacy and Attitude; Collective efficacy and Behavioral Intention; Subjective Norm and Behavioral Intention, respectively. Finally, this study raises implications and provides suggestions.
