摘要:Although technology enhanced learning has been advocated as one way of meeting student needs more effectively and efficiently, a challenge for university senior management is how best to facilitate this development. While studies in these areas have revealed that, in times of change, people management skills are of critical importance there is evidence from the literature that university leaders can be insensitive, taking little account of academic staff who are fearful of the transition to proposed changes in professional practices. Other research has suggested that successful implementation of plans are promoted by adopting more of a social deterministic approach, with the strategies clearly explained to academic staff so that the latter can understand the rationale and their new roles. The outcomes can empower staff and encourage participation, aligning individual motivations and concerns with organisational goals to develop engaging policies and practices.
