To enhance the teaching quality, each university makes efforts to set up the network assisted teaching system as the teaching aid beyond the curriculum. Hopefully it could bring the teachers and the students more nontraditional interactions. Nevertheless, after investing lots of human resources, money, and material resources, the utilization rate of the system is not high as expected. Therefore, to understand the factors affecting the use intention of network assisted teaching system is the vital issue that this research aims to discuss in order to improve the efficiency of the system. According to the past literature, this research was mainly based on the decomposed theory of planned behavior and adopted the information system success model as well as other relevant theories to construct the research framework. In the practical experiment part, the network assisted teaching system of a national university was taken as the identified system. The questionnaires were handed out to the teachers and the students at that school with 401 of them being valid. The statistic analysis method was performed on questionnaire result to investigate the factors that affected the use intention of network assisted teaching system for the teachers and the students. Then, the feasible suggestions were provided for improvement based on the analysis results. The research results showed that, to the users of the network assisted teaching system of the university, there are significant relationships between the system quality and the information satisfaction, the information quality and the information satisfaction, the service quality and the information satisfaction, the peer influence and the subjective norm, the higher level or lower level influence and the subjective norm, the self-efficacy and the perceived behavioral control, the facilitating conditions and the perceived behavioral control, the information satisfaction and the use intention, the subjective norm and the use intention, the perceived behavioral control and the use intention. Last, the suggestions were provided as below based on the research results and the status of the system to raise the users’ intention. 1.In the system part, it could increase the information satisfaction and raise the use intention by upgrading the software and the hardware, providing latest and right information, and correcting the false messages instantly. 2.In the community part, the higher level or lower level influence was significantly higher than the peer influence. Therefore, to raise the use intention of the whole system, it is necessary to raise the teachers’ use intention. 3.In the individual part, it is focused on the educational training and the production of the instruction documents to raise the users’ self-efficacy. It could help the users maintain and further increase their use intention.
