Tóm tắt

This study investigates factors that predict the successful adoption and implementation of e-learning technologies in producing knowledge. Two hundred and twelve members of the faculty in a small Liberal Arts college in the Midwest were targeted. Several layers of analysis were performed to test the effects of academic backgrounds and other demographic variables on the tendencies to adopt e-learning. It was found that the academic background variables did not yield significant correlations with perception about, and the decision to adopt, e-learning. The data showed that the primary interest in the correlates of the decisions to adopt e-learning is the faculty's self confidence in using the technology. © 2012 EDSIG.
