碩士 === 萬能科技大學 === 資訊管理研究所在職專班 === 104 === This study was conducted to understand junior high school students’ acceptance of cloud services incorporated into classroom management, and to explore whether such services can enhance classroom management effectiveness. Considering the environmental conditions of the research setting, we referenced relevant literature and compiled a questionnaire to survey the students and determine their acceptance of using cloud services in classroom management on the basis of the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology proposed by Venkatesh and Davis (2003) and the Classroom Management Effectiveness Scale for Elementary School Teachers proposed by Yang (1996). The participants were eighth-grade students at a public junior high school in Taoyuan City, Taiwan. According to the sample size and measurement models, we analyzed the validity and reliability of the measurement model through the partial least squares approach to structural equation modeling by using SmartPLS 3 software. Path analysis was conducted on the structural model to verify the significance and predictive power of the model. The results reveal that the user performance expectations of the cloud service positively influenced their actual usage of the technology. The actual usage of the cloud services positively influenced the students’ satisfaction, which positively influenced their continued usage intention. We offer suggestions based on the results as a reference for junior high school teachers in implementing network-based classroom management systems.
