Abstract

One of the main prerequisites for the implementation of collaborative Web 2.0 applications in higher education is their acceptance by students. With the objective to identify the predictors of students’ satisfaction and their intentions related to further use of collaborative Web 2.0 applications, a two-part research was conducted. After completing the collaborative educational activities by means of Google Docs, students were asked to fill out a post-use questionnaire. The aim of this paper is to examine the psychometric characteristics of the research framework which reflects the interplay among relevant aspects of Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Expectation-Confirmation Theory (ECT). Empirical findings and practical implications are presented and discussed.
