8. A Team Approach to Supporting Pedagogical Change in University eLearning Environments
Abstract
In response to recent social, economic, and pedagogical challenges to tertiary-level teaching and learning, universities are increasingly investigating and adopting eLearning as a way to engage and motivate students. This paper reports on the first of a two-year (2009-2010) qualitative case study research project in New Zealand. A snapshot of each of the four 2009 cases and some focused findings are provided, followed by a discussion of implications for researchers investigating technology implementation in tertiary settings.
