As a teaching tool, Wikipedia is used by an increasing number of professors from many universities around the world. Wikipedia is very influential in allowing students and teachers to learn together and having various skills for students. In this chapter, the influenced main factors of the teaching uses of Wikipedia in higher education are determined and also the relationship between these factors are tried to be explained with the technology acceptance model (TAM) through the structural equation model (SEM). With this aim, teaching use of Wikipedia in all faculty members of the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya are used as data and the data is analyzed by LISREL software package. After the analysis, it is found that sharing attitude and use behaviour factors have important role in the model and there is a direct strong impact of sharing attitude on use behavior.
