The Influence of Organizational Factors on Knowledge Sharing Using ICT among Teachers

Abstract

In this research, the knowledge-sharing behaviour using ICT among teachers were explored. There are many factors affecting behavioural intention to use ICT in knowledge sharing either from individual, organizational or technological perspectives. In studying knowledge sharing, many previous researchers combined the psychological and knowledge sharing theories to develop theoretical models. Thus, based on several theories, this paper seeks to examine the organizational factors that contribute to successful knowledge sharing using ICT among teachers. The results can provide information to the Government in providing the infrastructure, activities or programmes as well as the system of rewards and recognition that can increase the use of ICT in knowledge sharing and to enhance the profession of teaching. A mix method was employed to achieve the objectives. A survey was conducted in 20 selected schools in Perak from November 2011 to January 2012. The questionnaires, as the instrument for data collection, were distributed to 400 respondents. The data was analyzed using Structural equation modelling using AMOS version 19.0. The results from correlation analysis indicated positive and significant correlation between organizational factors and behavioural intention to use ICT in knowledge sharing. Besides, nine participants were interviewed to enhance the analysis.
