摘要
隨著網際網路的興盛與資訊科技的進步，愈來愈多的學習者加入線上學習社群做為傳統課程延伸的另一種學習管道。在本研究中，我們提供線上學習社群讓學習者可在社群中學習英文。同時，為了推廣優質的英文讀本，本社群定期舉辦閱讀競賽讓線上成員參與相關的活動。因此，本研究的目的為使用科技接受模式的延伸藉以探討學習者是否願意再度使用線上學習社群。 在本論文以科技接受模式為基礎，並延伸外部變數以及感知變項做為本研究所提出的模型和假設，以探討學習者對於線上學習社群的使用意願。共有436份有效問卷，透過結構方程模式統計方法進行資料分析與模型驗證。研究結果顯示本研究所提出的假設均受到支持，表示所提出的模型可以有效預測學習者是否會繼續使用線上學習社群。

With the booming of Internet and progress of information technology, more and more learners join online learning community as another learning channel to be an extension of traditional class. In this research, we provide an online learning community for learners to study English on it. Meanwhile, to promote excellent English books, our community holds regular related activity like reading contest for online members. Hence, the purpose of this study is to use the extended TAM model as our research framework, and would like to understand whether learners are willing to reuse an online learning community. The study of this thesis, we take the Technology Acceptance Model as a foundation and extend the external variables as well as the perceived variables as our model and propose a number of hypotheses. A total of 436 Taiwanese senior high school students participated in this research, and the online learning community focused on learning English. The research results show that all the hypotheses are supported, which indicates that the extended variables can effectively predict whether users will adopt an online learning community. Finally, we discuss the implications of our findings for the future development of online English learning communities.
