This document presents an overview of a lesson on the technology acceptance model (TAM). The objective is to introduce key concepts of TAM, have student groups design concept maps of TAM, and summarize. TAM is presented as attempting to understand technology acceptance in organizations. It includes four versions and draws from other models like the theory of reasoned action. The core idea is that two key factors, perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use, influence users' decisions about adopting technologies.
