school in the Yogyakarta Special Region. The research objective was achieved by
describing the essential influence of social environment and facilitating
conditions toward the technology acceptance model of e-learning. The study was
a correlational research one with an ex-post facto approach. The number of
research sample was 132 teachers and the research sample was determined by the
Krejcie & Morgan formula. The research sample was distributed by means of
proportional random sampling technique. The primary data source was the
teachers’ self report which had been collected by using a questionnaire. The
observation and the open-ended interviews were conducted in order to support
the primary data. The content validity was assessed by means of expert judgment
and the construct validity was calculated by means of Pearson correlation. The reliability
was determined by means of Cronbach's Alpha minimum value namely 0.70. The data
analysis was performed by using path analysis at a significance level of 0.05.
The study concluded that the effect of social environment and facilitating
conditions to the e-learning usage had been mediated by three main variables of
Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), namely perceived usefulness, perceived ease
of use, and intention to use.
