Popis: | The purpose of the research was studying the Factors Affecting the use and acceptance of computer technology by teachers in teaching using Fuzzy cognitive maps. The study was a qualitative study and according to the complex and vague structure of factors influencing the use and acceptance of computer technology by teachers were based on fuzzy cognitive maps. Given the nature of exploration, this approach involves expert opinions about a mental reality. So the research sample of the study consisted of 30 highly qualified teachers in the high school of Urmia, based on the principle of data saturation. The data were collected by using interviewing tools. In this regard, teachers were asked to draw on a paper the main phenomenon and the factors affecting it in the center of the page as a circle, and outlines ways to influence these factors on it, both positive and negative. Designed maps were transformed into matrices which were analyzed by FCMmapper software. The results showed that the use of classroom computer technology by teachers is most central. Teachers' training in the field of computer is the highest degree of exterior, and then the computer skills of teachers, the use of computers and the usefulness of it in teaching were the most influential.These findings are important implications for the consideration of factors affecting the use and acceptance of computer technology by teachers in teaching, Carry out the necessary steps to enhance teachers' ability to use computers in teaching, and take the necessary steps to improve teachers' use of computers in teaching to meet the needs of students in the current information age. |
