Understanding Digital Technology Integration in Merchant Marine College: Examining Teacher Digital Competency through TAM Framework
Journal Title: International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research and Analysis - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 11
Abstract
This study examines the relationship between teacher digital competency and technology adoption in maritime vocational education institutions. The research aims to investigate how digital competency influences perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, behavioral intention, and actual technology use among maritime educators. Using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) framework, the study explores the interconnected relationships between these variables in a specialized educational context. Data collection involved an online survey of lecturers and instructors from maritime vocational colleges under the Ministry of Transportation. The study employed structural equation modeling (SEM) using AMOS software for analysis, providing a comprehensive examination of the relationships between variables. Results reveal significant positive relationships between teacher digital competency and technology adoption factors. The findings demonstrate that digital competency strongly influences both perceived usefulness and ease of use of technology, which in turn affects behavioral intention and actual technology implementation. The research contributes to understanding technology adoption in maritime vocational education and provides practical implications for institutions developing digital competency programs. The study suggests that successful technology integration depends on both technical competency development and positive perceptions of technology's utility, supported by adequate institutional infrastructure.
