This article presents the results of a study investigating the applicability of Davis’ Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to user acceptance of a knowledge management system (KMS) in a modern organizational environment. The study endeavors to expand empirical research of two important and complex research questions: (1) What are the important factors, conditions, and mechanisms that affect people’s acceptance and usage of collaborative and interdependent KMS in the modern organizational environment?, and (2) How applicable is the TAM, and the substantial body of information technology (IT) research around this model, to user acceptance and usage of a KMS in a modern organizational environment where collaboration, knowledge sharing, and role based system usage is necessary for the organization to function competitively? The study provides preliminary evidence suggesting previous TAM research may serve as a foundation for research of KMS user acceptance. Relationships among primary TAM constructs found in this study are in substantive agreement with those of previous research. These findings are significant because they suggest that the considerable body of previous TAM related IT research may be usefully applied to the knowledge management (KM) domain where interdependent social processes that require knowledge creation, storage and retrieval, transfer, and application are required for effective organizational functioning.

PT ABC is one of the state-owned companies and one of the fertilizer producers in Indonesia. At present PT ABC has implemented a Knowledge Management System (KMS) in Human Resources Department. KMS serves as a tool for employees to consult in various fields regarding knowledge sharing, as a source of information and administration processes for payroll, leave, pensions and others. However, the existence of KMS is unable to guarantee the employees feel helped, for example, old employees who do not understand technology will have difficulty running KMS and some employees are not accustomed to dealing with information technology because they are used to consulting with humans. To measure the level of KMS acceptance for employees at PT ABC, this research uses the Chorng-Shyong Ong model which is a Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) model by utilizing the Power Issues.The purpose of this study was to find out the level of KMS acceptance in PT ABC based on the perspective of employees by identifying the basic factors, which affect cognitively and affectively to increase the internal beliefs, attitudes, and employee intention to use KMS through the recommendations given for the system improvement. And the results of this study indicate that the factors of perception to the usefulness, perceived ease of use, and the influences of others positively influence the intention to use KMS in PT ABC. There are only 3 of 7 hypotheses were accepted in accordance with the conditions that exist in PT ABC for the implementation of KMS. Of the 3 hypotheses accepted, the recommendations for improvement are derived based on the employee's suggestion in open questionnaires.

Implementation of Augmented Reality for Earth Layer Structure on Android Based as A Learning Media isa research that aims to help in presenting material to Elementary School children. The research methodchosen in the completion of this study uses the 4D method (Define, Design, Develop and Disseminate) witha data collecting method using Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) built one construct with threedimensions of user assessment level of technology acceptance to support the basis of questionnaire design.AR design supported by 3D models, in order to be able to support the details of each explanation of thematerial contained, thus helping users to understand the material and ease of interaction on the media.The final result obtained in this research is that the application is stated to be able to help the school, it is used as a media display in the classroom so students do not need to imagine themselves, but simply byusing learning media is able to present the material to students.Keywords: Learning Media, 4D Method, User Acceptance Test, Augmented reality, Android.
