Innovation Theories in Higher Education: Teacher Behavioral Determinants in the Adoption of Technologies, Methods and Teaching Practices Other Languages

ID:
55099
Abstract:
The professor's behavior is still an emerging issue with few quantitative studies. The choices of technologies, methodologies and teaching practices of a professor affect both professors and learning of students, turning out to be an increasing interest in researches in many areas of education. The main objective of this research is to analyze how innovation theories can be applied to identify the determinants of professor’s behavior in the adoption of teaching technologies, methods and practices, seeking to identify new variables and constructs, for the development and expansion of theoretical models. This article begins with an explanation of base theories widespread in other areas of knowledge, Theory of Planned behavior (TPB), Theory of Diffusion of Innovation (IDT), the Technology of Acceptance Model (TAM) and the Decomposed Theory of Planned Behavior (DTPB), to understand the application in studies on professor’s behavior. There are some researches in various courses and levels of education to illustrate the application of these theories to identify the determinants of the use of technologies, methodologies and teaching practice by professors. These theories and models can be used to predict the adoption of new technologies as a platform for e-learning, teaching methods and practices such as active teaching methodologies and cross-cutting themes such as Sustainability.
