Administrative Perceptions of Diffusion of Courses with World Wide Web Features
Patrick Sutherland
This study examined perceptions of administrators concerning courses with Web features at journalism and mass communication programs. Research questions
focused on imperatives to implement, on resistances, and on ElyÕs (1990) conditions facilitating implementation of educational technologies. A survey was
conducted of 189 university and college administrators with a response rate of 72%. An extensive set of imperatives were agreed upon. Three major resistances
were identified. ElyÕs conditions may be a practical implementation checklist for administrators.
