The results were consistent with the research framework, viz. the satisfaction of system usage had more factorial loading effect on encouraging the users on communication. It gave opportunity for users in participating, studying the previous lesson, linking the old and new knowledge with variety and suitability, stimulate the users for usage, and interest and motivation of the system were at .69, .65, .60, .59, .50, and .49 respectively. The efficient communicative variable had a similarity on factorial loading effect and sub-variables on changes in team communication behavior. It had the factorial loading effect on more communication with colleagues, having more jobs related conversations with colleagues, smaller team meetings are friendlier, teammates‟ opinions had being heard and they are more cooperative, and when problem arises, there will be more consultation in the team were at .86, .78, .75, .65, and .54 respectively.
