  • 摘要:AbstractThe present study aimed at exploring the overall Malaysian and Jordanian teachers attitudes toward schooling usage and personal usage of computers, and testing The following hypotheses: (1) Teachers attitudes toward schooling usage and personal usage of computers would not be significantly related to gender, (2) Teachers attitudes toward schooling usage and personal usage of computers would not be significantly related to the culture (country), and (3) Teachers attitudes toward schooling usage and personal usage of computers would not be significantly related to the interaction between gender and culture. A total of 369 Malaysian and 342 Jordanian English teachers were participated in the present study. Computer Attitude Scale (CAS) developed by Troutman (1991) was adapted and validated for both countries. The means suggest that participants have high level perceptions about the personal usage and schooling usage of computers. Furthermore, teachers in both sexes and from different countries have high levels of perceptions toward personal usage and schooling usage of computers. For Malaysian samples, MANOVA results indicated that: males and females are similar in their attitudes toward the personal usage and schooling usage of computers. For Jordanian samples, MANOVA results indicated that: males and females are similar in their attitudes toward the personal usage and schooling usage of computers. Finally, Malaysian and Jordanian teachers were similar in their attitudes toward schooling usage and personal usage of computers. In conclusion, attitudes toward computer usage are unrelated to culture and gender.
