CHALLENGES AND STRATEGIES ON ADOPTION OF E-LEARNING IN TANZANIAN HIGHER LEARNING INSTITUTIONS: LESSONS TO FUTURE ADOPTERS Dalton H. Kisanga, Gren Ireson Tanzanian
Higher learning institutions are faced with challenges of adopting
e-learning in education. This study used experts in e-learning to
examine barriers of adopting e-learning and the best strategies to
overcome them. Five major barriers were identified: poor
infrastructure; financial constraints; inadequate support; lack of
e-learning knowledge and teachers’ resistance to change. It is
recommended that training in e-learning needs to be provided to
teachers and administrators; provide financial, technical and
managerial support geared towards adoption. Successful adoption of
e-learning requires a strategic approach that factors out barriers
identified in this study and, which involve all education
stakeholders. |
