An Empirical Study on Factors Affecting Primary School Teachers' Use of LCS

The trend of using Learning Cyber Space is now rapidly expanding in China, which is expected to change the teaching and learning mode in primary and secondary school. Teachers' usage plays a key role in promoting the LCS. However, the teachers' registering rate of LCS is relatively high while the actual usage rate is low. The purpose of this study is to verified factors including learning resource, user-interface and function, perceived ease of use that affected primary school teachers' use of LCS. The result shown that user-interface and function and perceived ease of use have significant influence on the primary school teachers' use of LCS. Perceived ease of use was found as the most significant factor for usage of primary school teachers' LCS. Learning resource, however, has little impact on the primary school teachers' use of LCS. Implications of this finding are also discussed, which could provide some suggestions for the future development of LCS.
