Adoption and use of computer technology among school principals in Botswana secondary schools

► A study was carried out to find out whether Botswana secondary school principals were willing to adopt and use computers. ► The results revealed that Technology Acceptance Model is statistically significant and accounted for 27% of the variance in the behavioral intention (BI) to adopt and use computers. ► However, a small number of school principals (6.3%) did not want to adopt and use computers. ► A follow-up is recommended to probe further the reasons for the lack of adoption and use of computers by some school principals.
