Bu çalışmada Kitlesel Açık Çevrimiçi Derslerdeki (KAÇD) katılımcıların KAÇD’ye katılım nedenlerini performans beklentisi, çaba beklentisi, kolaylaştırıcı şartlar ve sosyal faktörler açılarından tespit etmek ve KAÇD’den haberdar oldukları kaynakları belirlemek amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmada nicel araştırma yöntemlerinden tarama yöntemi temel alınmıştır. Çalışmanın örneklemini Atatürk Üniversitesi’nin KAÇD platformu olan Atademix’teki kurslarda yer alan ve uygun örnekleme yöntemiyle seçilmiş 698 katılımcı oluşturmaktadır. Bu katılımcılar Atademix’teki kurslardan en az birine kayıtlı katılımcılardan oluşmaktadır. Bu çalışmada veri toplama aracı olarak anket kullanılmıştır. Anketin yapısı oluşturulurken Teknoloji Kabul ve Kullanım Birleştirilmiş Modeli kullanılmıştır. Bu modelde performans beklentisi, çaba beklentisi, kolaylaştırıcı şartlar ve sosyal faktörler boyutları yer almaktadır. Verilerin analizinde betimsel istatistiki yöntemler kullanılmıştır. Katılımcıların en çok sosyal medya aracılığı ile KAÇD’den haberdar oldukları tespit edilmiştir. Katılımcıların KAÇD’ye performans beklentisi, çaba beklentisi ve kolaylaştırıcı şartlar nedenleriyle katılımını belirleyen maddelerin ortalamalarının yüksek olduğu ve sosyal faktörün diğer faktörlere oranla ortalamasının düşük olduğu belirlenmiştir.
