There is a perceived lack in terms of both research and success stories in African higher education institutions with regard to the adoption of eLearning initiatives despite their promise and potential. There is therefore need to study and document the contributing factors, and at the same time develop frameworks and/or guidelines for successful eLearning adoption in Africa.

The purpose of this questionnaire is to determine what people who are using or thinking about eLearning in higher education perceive of it at the personal, organisational and environmental level. The items were developed from an interdisciplinary literature review on the general field of adoption of innovations. eLearning is the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), which ranges in complexity, sophistication, application, capacity, flexibility in teaching and learning. Adoption process is the process through which an individual or other decision-making unit passes from first knowledge of a new idea, tool, knowledge practices, object, process or procedure, to forming an attitude toward the innovation, to a decision to adopt or reject, to implementation of the new idea, and to confirmation of this decision.

Please note that:

It will take you approximately 20 minutes to fill in this questionnaire. For internal validity of the questionnaire, some items may appear as if they are repeated.
