Abstract: This study extended a previous paper that focuses on the acceptability of selected Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (BSCS) and Information Technology (BSIT) students on the use of Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS) as an educational technology tool for C/C++ Programming. A one-shot case study research design was carried out in 5 programming classes taught by the author. A Slovin's formula computation from the population was 35.54. A stratified sampling method was employed with the 4 intervals between students to mitigate bias. The study involved 39 participants, out of which 74.36% were male and 25.64% were female computer science and IT students. Utilizing the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) as an evaluation tool online enabled importing the dataset into IBM SPSS for finding the correlations and factor loading calculations. Cronbach alpha was conducted by the author with a value of 0.947, which signifies the measure of internal consistency. The seven (7) factors of TAM were analyzed to reveal coefficient values for comparisons and derive their relative implications. Research indicates that every factor significantly influences the acceptance of ITS among BSCS and BSIT students. Interestingly, PerUse→Att has the highest coefficient value (0.883) next in the rank was SocNor→Att by a factor of 0.822 signifying their impact on ITS (Att), leaving SocNor→PerEas ranking last amongst relations with a 0.630 coefficient value. Finally, the results implied CS and IT students are open to the notion of incorporating intelligent teaching tools into their laboratory sessions to supplement their programming activity and increase their efficiency when building console applications.
