hi There,

there are plenty such as Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), and many more. please see https://is.theorizeit.org/wiki/Main_Page . Have fun.

Hi Dona,

I'd like to recommend our paper in which we looked into this among chemistry teachers.

Rusek, M., Stárková, D., Chytrý, V., & Bílek, M. (2017). Adoption of ICT Innovations by Secondary School Teachers and Pre-service Teachers within Education. Journal of Baltic Science Education, 16(4), 510-523.

Hope it helps.

Best,

Martin

Hi,

Pl. see this good article:

Article ICT Readiness Assessment Model for Public and Private Organi...

Readiness assessment tools related to ICT have been developed and used in many organizations. These tools, however, are not suitable for use to assess small and medium sized organizations, especially in developing counties. These assessments tools called E-readiness assessment tools and models. They also provide a useful guide for multinational enterprises who are seeking to invest in technologically innovative countries and tailor their Internet strategies to local conditions.

The ICT readiness assessment model is an evaluation tool, which has the purpose to measure the current state of ICT utilization and ICT penetration levels of medium and small sized business organizations.

Hi Abdelkader,

I have read through your article and found that the model is applied for a more sophisticated SME's using ICT already. Yes, I agree with the fact that there is a lack of research done for developing countries. I need to focus on SME's conducting their businesses on a more primary level and to assess their readiness to embrace ICT to their businesses. Nevertheless, your research was a good foundation for that. But I have a confusion of concept "ICT adoption" and "ICT readiness". Need to distinguish them more clearly. Thanks a lot for your feedback.Much appreciated.

Sachin Suknunan in Suknunan Thanks for your reply. Greatly appreciated. Going through (TAM), I feel that the two concepts are much similar.

Martin Rusek Thanks for directing me. I will go through the research. Much appreciated

.

Happy to help, Dona. Let me know if I can be of any help. We also looked into other theories than Rogers’ so perhaps UTAUT as an attempt to bring more of these together might be of your interest.
