  • Identify theme of interest:

The focus is on Visualizing factors that influence the use of Wikipedia as a platform for teaching and learning in the academic world. What do faculty members consider important in order to use and promote wikipedia.

Profile 2.0
Job relevance
Use Behavior
Behavioral Intention
Incentives

The associations to be studied are

  1. Who are the poeple taking the survey? Some demogrpahics on the survey participants
  2. Do faculty members from various departments differ in their opinion on the perceived usefulness and Quality.
  3. Is Quality the key factor considered by most faculty members. Does it influence the perceived usefulness and ease of use
  4. Is the Use behavior and Behavioral intention defined by quality
  5. Does the faculty Social profile influence the sharing attitude
  6. How important is the Job relevance for the use of wikipedia. Does it also affect the sharing attitude
  7. Does the Social Image- colleague's perception, influence the perceived usefulness and behavior intention
  8. How does visibility affect the use behavior and behavioral intention

As we progress with data explorations, some questions may have to be re defined

  • Analysis:
