| dc.description.abstract | This dissertation explores master’s students’ views on developing self-correction strategies using ICTs in the process of writing their master’s dissertations in the Department of English at MMUTO. The study aims to achieve two main objectives. Firstly, it seeks to explore the types of ICT tools adopted by these students for self-correction in their academic writing. Secondly, it examines the factors that determine the acceptance or rejection of these tools. To reach these objectives, we adopted Davis’s Technology Acceptance Model (TAM, 1989) as the theoretical framework. This investigation is based on a mixed-methods research approach, combining both quantitative and qualitative methods. Data were collected through an online questionnaire administered to 53 students and a structured online asynchronous interview conducted with 6 students in the Department of English. The quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistical methods, while the qualitative data were analyzed using qualitative content analysis (QCA). The findings of the study reveal that the students have positive views on developing self-correction strategies using ICTs in their academic writing. Moreover, the results show that students rely on various tools, which they selected based on their ease of use and perceived usefulness. These factors significantly influence students' acceptance of these tools. Conversely, the factors driving students to reject these tools include challenges that contrast with the factors favoring their acceptance. | |
