How do you design, implement and support an information system that effectively and efficiently supports e-learning within an institution of higher education?

There has been little or no theoretically grounded and rigorous research into the structures and processes required to encourage the adoption of e-learning and to facilitate disseminate knowledge at the organisational level
(Alavi & Leidner, 2001)
More models, that demonstrate the transferability and scalability of e-learning, are required

E-learning orthodoxy
By adopting a single domineering concept of method all our thinking…becomes imprisoned by this one concept…..It limits not only our understanding, but our empirical observations….can cause us to ignore activities that do not fit within a methodical frame

It is realistic to recognize that implementing e-learning is a hugely complex undertaking with multiple contexts and stakeholders—and risks.
(Pittard, 2004)
http://flickr.com/photos/boskizzi/3241710/
Management fashion is "relatively transitory collective beliefs, disseminated by the discourse of knowledge entrepreneurs, that a management technique is at the forefront of rational management progress”
(Abrahamson and Fairchild, 2003)
Amplified by hyperbole…, the fashionable vision may exert a strong, if transitory, normative pull among managers.
(Swanson and Ramiller, 2004)

(Mischra and Koehler, 2006)
Having a framework goes beyond merely identifying problems with current approaches; it offers new ways of looking at and perceiving phenomena and offers information on which to base sound, pragmatic decision making.

Most HEIs are struggling to engage a significant percentage of students and staff in e-learning
(Salmon, 2005)
There remain concerns about the quality of the learning and teaching and about the return on the investment in e-learning
(Bates, 2009)
http://flickr.com/photos/fatmandy/267252461/
…not particularly innovative, may limit the incentive to innovate, limited in quality and may restrict the ability to integrate with other systems
(Alexander, 2001; Anonymous, 2004; Paulsen, 2002

Surprise has been expressed at how quickly university learning and teaching…has been modified to incorporate the use of learning management systems

As of 2005 almost every higher education institution is planning to make use of an LMS
(Salmon, 2005)
http://flickr.com/photos/cloud_nine/15354825/
http://flickr.com/photos/cloud_nine/15354825/
LMS are based on an overly simplistic understanding of the relationship between teachers, knowledge and student learning.
(Coates, James, Baldwin, 2005)
http://flickr.com/photos/cloud_nine/15354825/
No LMS supports student critical thinking, generation of knowledge and collaborative teamwork
(Bonk & Dennen, 1999)
http://flickr.com/photos/cloud_nine/15354825/
Tools are never value-neutral but arereplete with values and potentialitieswhich may cause unexpected responses
(Westera, 2004)
LMS design embeds particular world views(Dron, 2006)
Some LMS values
Based on USA higher educationCourse Instructors
Course offering-based
Closed from outside world
Web-based
Integrated enterprise system
Only handle courses with 999 or less students
http://flickr.com/photos/wildlifebiologyguy/3085729458/
Based on scarcity – must provide all
http://flickr.com/photos/cloud_nine/15354825/
most commercial systems require the institution to modify its existing practices to accommodate the system
(Dodds, 2007)
we should change people's behaviour because information technology systems are difficult to change..

Only 5 made significant use
1998/99 49% of content requests for 2 courses (1 staff member)
T1, 1998 83% of content was for 1 course
425 teaching staff employed by Infocom (2001-2004)
353 (83%)used system
And 445 fromoutside Infocom

I identify myself as coming from the technophobic extreme of the faculties (I have an Arts background) but even I find the systems the team have set out relatively easy to use
..the precedent of other IT systems made available in Infocom (…) suggests that it would be extremely user friendly for people with very limited computer competence/confidence.
(Behrens, Jamieson, Jones and Cranston, 2005)
(Jones, Cranston, Behrens and Jamieson, 2004)
The key to easy use of OASIS is that it is not a off the shelf product that is sooooo generic that it has lost its way as a course delivery tool.
the best thing about teaching and learning in this faculty in 2003 would be the development of technologically progressive academic information systems
that provide better service to our students and staff and make our teaching more effective. Webfuse and MyInfocom development has greatly assisted staff to cope with the complexities of delivering courses across a large multi-site operation.
