Abstract (2. Language): 
The purpose of this study is to investigate students’ perceptions of learning environment of a distance course through Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), a measure to assess the underlying reasons about the use of a technology. This distance course was delivered from one university to the other university via video-conferencing with ITL Learning Gateway content management system in one semester. An extended version of TAM was used as conceptual framework, which composed of three factors: “perceived motivation towards learning environment”, “perceived usefulness” and “perceived ease of use”. A total of 32 first year vocational higher education institution students who registered for this distance course participated in this study. Data were collected through a questionnaire based on the extended version of TAM. The findings revealed that each factor of TAM was perceived by students as “moderately advantageous.” This perception could be due to students’ low computer competency and e-learning experiences.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Teknoloji kabul modeli (TAM) teknoloji kullanımının altında yatan nedenleri inceleyen bir ölçektir. Bu çalışmada öğrencilerin uzaktan verilen derste kullanılan öğrenme ortamına yönelik algılarının araştırmak amacıyla, video konferans aracılığıyla ITL Learning Gateway içerik yönetim sistemi kullanılarak bir dönem boyunca bir üniversiteden bir başka üniversiteye uzaktan bir ders verilmiştir. Bu çalışmada Teknoloji kabul modelinin genişletilmiş bir versiyonu kullanılmıştır. Bu genişletilmiş versiyonu üç faktörden oluşmaktadır. Bunlar “öğrenme ortamına yönelik motivasyon algısı”, “kullanışlılık algısı” ve “kolay kullanım algısı”. Bunun için mesleki yüksek öğrenim kurumunda okuyan ve bu uzaktan verilen derse kayıtlı 32 birinci sınıf öğrencisi bu çalışmaya katılmıştır. Bu öğrencilere teknoloji kabul modeli temel alınarak hazırlanmış bir anket dağıtılmış ve betimleyici sonuçlar incelenmiştir. Bulgular, teknoloji kabul modelinin her bir faktöründe öğrenciler ortalama avantajlar sağladığı algısına sahiptir. Bunun altında yatan nedenin öğrencilerin düşük bilgisayar becerileri ve e-öğrenme tecrübeleri olduğu düşünülmektedir.
