Abstract
This paper aims to examine the impact of different factors on lecturers’ behavior related to the intention to use simulation technology applications in teaching activities in the context of the 4.0 industrial revolution in all fields around the world. The research employs a mixed-method approach, comprising qualitative in-depth interviews and group discussions, followed by a quantitative survey using SPSS-V.22 to assess the impact of lecturers’ intention-related factors on use of simulation applications in teaching activities. Based on the analysis results, the study identifies the factors that promote the intention to use simulation applications in teaching activities. The practical implications of this research are significant, as the findings provide valuable insights to curriculum developers, educators, administrators, policymakers, and developers of simulations in school instruction. Enhancing the intention to use simulation applications can contribute to improving the quality of teaching and training. This study adds to the current body of knowledge by offering a new perspective on the use of simulation applications in teaching activities.
