摘要:With rapidly rising popularity of digital reading coupled with advancement in electronic
book technology, there is a sense of urgency to cultivate qualified talent for the digital
publishing industry. Based on results of an exploration identifying technical skills
needed for the industry to produce electronic books, this study developed a web-based
performance assessment system with 35 questions in its item bank regarding four
dimensions of full-text e-book production. The study applied technology acceptance
model (TAM) to explore the behavioral intention of students in technological colleges
and universities and use a web-based performance assessment system as a tool to
evaluate their technical proficiency in e-book production. This study also applied
structural equation model as a vehicle to test the hypotheses and relationships in the
research to verify external effects of “computer self-efficacy”. This research concludes
that the technology acceptance model can be applied to explain users’ willingness to
adopt a web-based assessment system.
