Bilgi ve iletişim teknolojilerinde yaşanmakta olan gelişmeler, toplumsal yaşamın her alanını önemli ölçüde etkilemeye devam etmektedir. Eğitim, bu gelişmelerden en fazla etkilenen alanlardan birisidir. Bilgi ve iletişim teknolojilerindeki gelişmelerin bir sonucu olarak akademik ve yönetim anlayışlarında değişiklikler yapma zorunluluğu duyan üniversiteler, bu teknolojileri yükseköğretim ile bütünleştirerek uzaktan eğitim uygulamalarını ortaya çıkarmışlardır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, muhasebe akademisyenlerinin muhasebe eğitiminde uzaktan eğitim uygulamalarını kabullerini etkileyen faktörlerin Teknoloji Kabul Modeli (TKM) çerçevesinde ortaya konmasıdır. Teknoloji Kabul Modelinin değişkenleri arasındaki ilişkileri test edebilmek için 78 muhasebe akademisyeninden anket yoluyla oluşturulan veri setinin analizinden elde edilen bulgular, teoriyi desteklemektedir. Bu bulgulara göre, a) algılanan kullanışlılık değişkeninin, muhasebe akademisyenlerinin uzaktan eğitim uygulamalarının kullanımına yönelik tutum ve davranışsal niyetleri üzerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ve pozitif bir etkisinin b) algılanan kullanım kolaylığı değişkeninin, muhasebe akademisyenlerinin uzaktan eğitim uygulamalarının kullanımına yönelik tutumları üzerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ve pozitif bir etkisinin ve c) bunun sonucunda da kullanıma yönelik tutumlarının ise davranışsal niyetleri üzerinde istatistiksel olarak anlamlı ve pozitif etkisinin olduğu sonuçlarına ulaşılmıştır.
The developments in information and communication technologies continue to have a significant impact on every field of social life. Education is one of the areas most affected by these developments. As a result of the developments in information and communication technologies, universities having the obligation to make changes in academic and management concepts, they have revealed practices of distance learning by integrating these technologies with higher education. The aim of this study is to identify the factors that influence accounting academics’ acceptance of remote learning practices in accounting education within the framework of the Technology Admission Model (TKM). The findings obtained from the analysis of the data set created through an survey from 78 accounting academics to test the relationships between the variables of the Technology Admission Model, support the theory. According to these findings, a) the statistically meaningful and positive effect of the perceived utility variable on accounting academic attitudes and behavioral intentions towards the use of remote learning practices; b) the perceived utility variable has a statistically meaningful and positive effect on accounting academic attitudes towards the use of remote learning practices; and c) as a result, the perceived use attitudes have a statistically meaningful and positive effect on their behavioral intentions.
Developments in information and communication technologies continue to affect every aspect of social life. Education is one of the most affected areas by these developments. As a consequence of the constantly evolving developments in information and communication technologies, universities have to make an effort to integrate these technologies into the field of education. Distance education (DE) is one of the applications that are emerged by the integration of communication technologies in higher education. The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors affecting accounting academicians’ usage of distance learning practices via Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). Relationships between variables are investigated using data obtained from randomly selected 78 accounting academicians via questionnaire applied by e-mail. The results of analysis are supporting the theory. According to the findings a) accounting academicians perceived usefulness perceptions towards DE has a positive and statistically significant effect on their attitude toward use and behavioral intentions, b) accounting academicians perceived ease of use perceptions towards DE has a positive and statistically significant effect on their behavioral intentions and as a result of this c) perceived ease of use has a positive effect on behavioral intentions.
