education. But then the technological innovations, when successful, in turn raise
fresh challenges from an institutional perspective. Questions which arise include
how is success measured, will it translate across disciplines, how will it impact
on existing technological use, and how can it be implemented across the
university in a manner than enhances and increases efficiency and effectiveness,
rather than just adding another burden to busy teaching staff.
The next section outlines how one particular institution, Monash University
in Australia (http://www.monash.edu/), is responding to the challenges at an
institutional level, in an effort to ensure that the most appropriate technologies
are adopted.
