چکیده
Over the past few years, many higher educational institutions have begun to implement e-learning technologies, initially by blending them with conventional classroom activities. For an educational change like this to be truly reformative, as the educational authorities wish, universities/colleges will need to effectively manage this transition, as well as provide technical support to all relevant parties. JIBC August 2008, Vol. 13, No. 2 2 The purpose of this study was to determine the underlying factors that keep higher educators away from e-teaching, and to discuss strategic issues associated with the diffusion of e-teaching in the context of higher education. One case of a smaller University in Korea was closely analyzed for this purpose. This study focused on the provider’s side of e-learning as the delivery of course contents via electronic media, especially the Internet.
