Computer Anxiety and Attitudes toward Computers among Rural Secondary School Teachers

Abstract

This study investigated the computer anxiety levels and attitudes of rural secondary school teachers toward computers, the relationship between anxiety and attitudes toward computers, and differences in anxiety levels and attitudes based on demographic characteristics. The sample consisted of 200 secondary teachers from rural schools in Malaysia. The findings showed that rural secondary school teachers in Malaysia have low computer anxiety levels and positive attitudes toward computers. There was a negative linear relationship between computer anxiety and attitudes toward computers. Teachers who owned computers and had more computing experience were found to have lower anxiety and more positive attitudes than teachers who had less computer experience. Female teachers were found to be more anxious than male teachers toward computer hardware.
