End-User Software Training: An Experimental Comparison Of Methods To Enhance Motivation |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
Effective training is a key factor in determining the success of end-user computing (EUC) in organizations. Software training research often focuses on one outcome of training - understanding. The experimental study reported here examines understanding, motivation, and use as outcomes of software training. Two methods of training, applications-based and construct-based, that focused on different levels of personal relevance were compared. The experiment utilized subjects in a 'real' training setting. The effects of previous experience with software were strong. There is some evidence to suggest that applications-based training is best for novices. |
