Abstract: | The purpose of this study was to explore the factors affecting ICT adoption process and the implications for faculty training
and technology leadership. Respondents represented a wide range of academic and professional positions. They identified themselves
as Assistant, Associate, and Professor as well as Instructional Designer, Director of Technology, Information Manager, eLearning
Manager, Assistant Department Chair, Associate Vice President of Academic Affairs and Consultant. The respondents identified
Organizational Support, Leadership, Training and Development, and Resources as the predominate themes affecting Information
and Communication Technology (ICT) adoption process in higher education. Evidence from this study offers insights on how higher
education administrators and technology leaders could help their faculty and staff to implement appropriate ICT tools and
practices to improve student learning. |
