Samenvatting

Technology has an ever increasing role in the day to day lives of individuals and societies. To provoke critical thought about the impact of new digital technology, the Technology Impact Cycle Tool (TICT) has been developed. In this paper, three psychological constructs: Performance Expectancy, Effort Expectancy, and Attitude towards using technology are researched to better understand the perception of students at the Fontys University of Applied science institute for ICT (FHICT). The following research question is constructed to research the perception of FHICT students: ‘To which degree do Performance Expectancy, Attitude and Effort Expectancy contribute to the intent to use the TICT for FHICT students?’. To research FHICT students perception of the TICT a survey was distributed among third and fourth year students of the IT & software engineering, and IT & technology profiles of FHICT. Attitude towards using technology got the lowest score, Performance Expectancy got an average raining, and Effort Expectancy got the highest score. Additionally, Attitude towards using technology showed the highest relationship with the intent to use the TICT, with Performance Expectancy having the second highest relation. The results indicate that to increase the intent to use the TICT, FHICT students should be made aware of the personal relevance of, and the task accomplished with the TICT. If the personal relevance and task accomplishments are not made aware or improved upon, a failure of the Fontys vision of providing reflective practitioners onto the labour market could be imminent.
