Abstract

A survey was performed to investigate the influence of personal factors on class use of computers. Subjects were 236 secondary school teachers who were using computers, either for teaching or non-teaching purposes. A logistic regression technique was used to examine differences between class users and non-class users of computers on a set of personal characteristics: age, gender, computer attitudes, computer experience, technological and general innovativeness. Results indicate that only technological innovativeness and computer experience accounted for significant variance in explaining class use of computers.
