The success of an e-learning system depends largely on the acceptance and use that teachers give this tool. After critically evaluate models of technology adoption, including the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and TAM2, we built a conceptual model to predict the level of acceptance and use of elearning system among teachers. This model extends TAM2 and includes technical support, computer self-efficacy, social influence, perceived enjoyment and satisfaction. Data were collected from 145 teachers of a University in Ecuador. For data collection, a form in Likert scale was sent by email. Upon receipt of the data, these missing data reported 4.2%, to correct this data imputation method it was applied for replacement by mean. After performing the checks about satisfactory reliability and validity, the structural model was tested using PLS. The results indicate that perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness have a direct effect on the intension of using e-learning systems. Perceived enjoyment, perceived ease of use and social influence have a direct effect on the perceived usefulness. Perceived enjoyment and computer self-efficacy both have a direct effect on perceived ease of use of e-learning systems. Universities Principals should not only worry about the basic design of e-learning systems, but also explicitly address individual differences among teachers using elearning system.

“…The first part of the questionnaire assessed participants' personal and demographic information with eight items. The second part contained a total of 49 items, including 19 items about the attitude component and which were scored based on a 5-point Likert scale (totally agree, agree, no comments, disagree and totally disagree), and with variables including perceived simplicity, perceived benefits, the attitude toward application and the acceptance of information systems, 15 items about the information system users' knowledge and scored based on a 3-point Likert scale (no knowledge, little knowledge and full knowledge), and 15 items about the features of the information system and scored based on a 4-point Likert scale (totally essential, essential, not essential and absolutely not essential) [6]. The study used stratified random sampling to select its participants from the population of individuals familiar with clinical information systems and working at either of the 15 centers under scrutiny.…”

“…Over the years, hospital managers have recognized that, to provide quality patient care services, a uniform hospital information system is required [5]. A complex organization such as a hospital that has several different departments requires a fast and effective means of access to information in order to better operate [6]. As one of the main social organizations, hospitals have a major role in the improvement of the country's health status and the providing of healthcare services.…”

“…In a study conducted to investigate the effect of factors affecting the acceptance of information systems in hospital personnel, Melas (2011) concluded that the use of technological systems is influenced by perceived benefits, simplicity of use and the attitude toward the application of the system [6]. In another study, Kahouei & Babamohammadi (2013) investigated the acceptance of clinical information systems in nursing personnel based on the information technology acceptance model, and found that nurses who were aware of their obligation toward the computer program or those informed about its objectives showed a greater acceptance [13].…”

Objectives: Developed countries have long been aware of the importance of information technologies in achieving success. The role of information technologies in improving the quality of healthcare and aiding patient safety has always been a research interest for the healthcare industry. The present study was conducted to assess healthcare personnel's acceptance of clinical information systems in teaching hospitals of Rasht in 2014. Methods: The present descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in 2014 in a study population consisting of the healthcare personnel employed at teaching hospitals of Rasht. The study samples were selected through stratified random sampling and included 520 individuals. Data were collected using a standard questionnaire. The normal distribution of the data was confirmed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. The Pearson correlation test and the confirmatory factor analysis were used to analyze the data. Results: Significant positive relationships were found between the features of information and communication systems and perceived benefits (R = 0.357 and P = 0.001), between the knowledge of information and communication systems and perceived simplicity (R = 0.211 and P = 0.0001), between perceived simplicity and perceived benefits (R = 0.558 and P = 0.0001), between perceived simplicity and the attitude toward application (R = 0.472 and P = 0.0001), between perceived simplicity and the acceptance of clinical information systems (R = 0.441 and P = 0.0001), between perceived benefits and the attitude toward application (R = 0.272 and P = 0.0001), between perceived benefits and the acceptance of clinical information systems (R = 0.171 and P = 0.0001), and between the attitude toward application and the acceptance of clinical information systems (R = 0.676 and P = 0.0001). Conclusion:The results obtained suggest that teaching hospitals' personnel should help modify the prevailing culture that impedes the acceptance of information systems and to constantly foster more appropriate values and behavioral patterns. The empowerment of the personnel to use clinical information systems is an effective measure that helps increase productivity, efficiency and the optimal use of time.

ResumenObjeto: El objetivo de esta investigación fue adaptar el Modelo de Aceptación de la Tecnología (TAM) para predecir el uso y la intención de uso de los sistemas e-learning entre los estudiantes de grado de una universidad estatal en Ecuador, con la intención de mejorar el entendimiento de los factores que puedan potenciar el uso de estos sistemas y facilitar la aplicación de políticas para incrementar los beneficios que éstos aportan al proceso de enseñanza y aprendizaje.Diseño/metodología/enfoque: El análisis tiene fundamento epistemológico en lo empírico-inductivo, basado en la observación de la percepción. En base a la revisión de la literatura científica sobre la evaluación y aceptación de los sistemas e-learning, se ha adaptado el modelo al caso de Ecuador y se ha elaborado un cuestionario con 52 ítems basado en escalas de Likert. El instrumento fue enviado por correo electrónico a 600 estudiantes de grado de una universidad estatal en Ecuador, respondiendo satisfactoriamente 423 de ellos. Se realizaron comprobaciones de validez y fiabilidad del modelo de ecuaciones estructurales por mínimos cuadrados parciales (PLS), con el soporte del software estadístico SmartPLS.-548-
