Abstract

Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is a widely acknowledged information system theory showcasing the motivational factors of how users come up and use technology. TAM2 and TAM3 are later extensions consuming and confirming more such factors responsible for technology adoption. Following this line of research, one latest study has proposed a further extension as TAM3+. The current study is a brief critical review of this proposition. Why and how this has been reached? How far it could be merited to attract teachers towards better technology use? Taken together, this study will provide the readers with a solid understanding of users ‘subjective self’ considered a vital stimulus in TAM3+ and thereby concludes whether to praise or criticize this extension as a tool for predicting end-users behaviour concerning technology use.
