The Perception of Djiboutian Elementary School Teachers Toward Tablet Devices

Abstract

This study explores the Djiboutian elementary school teachers’ perceptions regarding the integration and use of tablet devices in the classroom. Employing a quantitative approach, the researcher administered a questionnaire survey to 65 elementary school teachers across Djibouti, incorporating primary schools from rural and urban areas. The questionnaire items which were based on the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) developed by Davis (1989) assessed critical aspects such as teachers’ perceived ease of use of the tablets (PEU), their perceived usefulness (PU), their tablet self-efficacy, their attitude toward tablets and their behavioral intention to use these devices in their classrooms. The results revealed that a majority (66%) of the surveyed teachers had a positive outlook on tablet integration into the curriculum. They also recognized the potential of these devices in enhancing teaching efficiency and students’ engagement.
