This study examined the three dimensions that should exist in a learning community, namely Student Cohesiveness, Integration, and Task Orientation, related to their influence on attitude toward computer-based statistics. Attitude toward computer-based statistics itself is measured using constructs of the revised Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). This study was designed to justify the value of information systems (IS) in overcoming accounting students' statistical problems. The use of IS probable to reduce the pressure in dealing with statistics so that there is an opportunity to increase accounting students' competitive advantage. The respondents consisted of 105 undergraduate accounting students. The data was collected using a 5-scale Likert questionnaire then analyzed using Structural Equational Modelling (SEM). With purposive sampling, this study was collected 105 responses obtained from private and state universities. The results indicate that task orientation is the key indicator of the learning community, affecting attitude toward computer-based statistics. Meanwhile, the second-order factors show that all three predictors were essential in explaining attitude toward computer-based statistics and significantly impacted Reuse Intention. This study also suggests implementing an informal learning community to build learning dynamics that are more independent but still controllable so that the learning topic is integrated with certain subjects.

Computer and related technologies provide powerful tools to meet the new challenges of designing and implementing assessments methods that go beyond the conventional practices. With the growing population of students in most Nigerian Universities, there is need for the use of Computer-Based Test (CBT) for assessment. CBT has long been regarded as a potentially powerful asset for providing assessment. The successes of transition from Paper-Based Test (PBT) to CBT in Nigerian universities prompted this study to investigate students perceptions in this field based on a survey study underpinned by the modified Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) as the research framework. The study is descriptive and the factors that can predict acceptance of CBT for examination in the Nigerian Universities was investigated in a survey study involving 1506 students. The dimensions used in the study were Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU), Perceived Usefulness (PU) and Perceived Credibility (PC). The three dimensions envisage the use of CBT. The study revealed amongst others that the usefulness, ease of use and credibility are important in the’ use of computer-based test in Nigerian universities. Based on the result, it was recommended that students’ gender and field of study be considered in the use of CBT.

Indonesian Eastern Fleet Training Command currently has the facilities to train professional soldiers in the shooting.A simulator facility in the form of computer-based clinic shooting is called Virtual Arms Solution FTS D-423 (VAS).Need to analyse the relationship between perceived ease of use and usefulness of VAS in order to determine thelevel of acceptance. Both these factors are modelled by the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) which canexplain the factors that influence the actual receipt of the use of technology. After that, the relationship between thetwo factors that have been modelled with the Technology Acceptance Model to be treated using Path Analysis(Path Analysis). Where the path analysis was used to analyse the causal relationships between variables in order todetermine the effect of the direct and indirect causes of the variable to a variable result. Based on the analysis anddiscussion, it is obtained as follows that the ease and usefulness of a positive effect on Attitude using VAS positiveeffect on Behavioural Intention using VAS. Behavioural intentions affect the Actual Usage.Keywords: Virtual Arms Solution, Technology Acceptance Model, Path Analysis.

This study aims to analyze the effect of perceptions of use, perceived ease of use and attitudes on the behavior interest of accounting students in using the Mind Your Own Business Accounting application with the Technology Acceptance Model approach. Data collection was carried out through a survey with a questionnaire to accounting students at Politeknik Negeri Manado. Analysis of research data using Partial Least Square. The results showed that when students felt the benefits and convenience of using accounting applications for the financial reporting process, it made them have the attitude to accept the use of these applications. Furthermore, the perceived benefits of using the application and the positive attitude of students towards the use of accounting applications affect their intention to use the application. Conversely, the findings of this study do not prove the effect of ease of use of applications on the intention to use accounting applications as a means of making financial reports.

Abstrak –Pelaksanaan ujian nasional di SMP, SMA / SMK sederajat yang dilaksanakan olehKementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan Republik Indonesia selalu mengalami perubahan, baik darisegi manfaat, teknis pelaksanaan, banyaknya model paket soal sampai dengan cara mengoreksi hasilujian. Seiring dengan perkembangan teknologi ujian nasional kini mulai dilaksanakan dengan sarana komputer secara on line atau lebih dikenal dengan istilah Computer BasedTest ( CBT). Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menganalisis hubungan antara satu variabel denganvariabel lainnya atau bagaimana suatu variabel mempengaruhi variabel lainnya dengan pendekatankuantitatif. Pendekatan yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Technology Acceptance Model(TAM) I dengan metode SEM program PLS. Untuk menguji hipotesis dalam penelitian ini menggunakanmetode Analisis Component Based SEM atau Partial Least Square (PLS). Hasil yang diperoleh daripenelitian ini ditemukannya pengaruh yang signifikan dan tidak signifikan dari variabel eksternal sertabeberapa persepsi yang berpengaruh terhadap pelaksanaan CBT di Kulon Progo.Kata kunci: TAM, pengalaman, kerumitan, kesesuian tugas, sikap pengguna

Computer based data processing is expected to improve user performance, but the computer was not completely accepted by individuals. STMIK AKAKOM in one of their activities applied information technology to SIAKAD that provides some features for learning activities on campus The analysis of SIAKAD acceptance by students using the technology acceptance  model (TAM), with partial least square , is to know how the behavior of SIAKAD users as the end user? It would be related to usefulness (PU), ease of use (PEOU), attitude toward using (ATU), and behavioral intention to use (BITU). From the analysis of data, the results is mention that there were a positive and significant influence between the variables. Technology acceptance factors that inflict attitude to use SIAKAD by student in their learning activities is the ease of use and usefulness )

This study aims to analyze the effect of perceived usage, perceived ease of use and attitudes on the behavior interest of accounting students in using the MYOB Accounting application with the Technology Acceptance Model approach developed by Davis (1989). Data collection was carried out through a survey with a questionnaire to accounting students at Manado State Polytechnic. Analysis of research data using Partial Least Square (PLS). The results showed that when students felt the benefits and convenience of using the MYOB Accounting application for the process of preparing financial reports, it made them have the attitude to accept the use of the application. Furthermore, the perceived benefits of using the application and the positive attitude of students towards the use of MYOB Accounting affect their intention to use the application. On the other hand, the findings of this study do not prove the effect of ease of use of applications on the intention to use MYOB Accounting as a means of making financial reports.
