ABSTRACT
Web-based courseware such as Blackboard and WebCT has been used widely as support for a traditional classroom format. Built on the technology acceptance model (TAM), which has been expensively tested in examining the use of various information systems in organizations, this study examines the use of web-based courseware and its effects on the student performance. It uses data collected from undergraduate students in the introductory course to information systems. The results of the study will provide valuable insights into how the constructs of TAM are related to performance in the context of web-based courseware.
