This multidisciplinary, edited volume examines higher educations’ ICT integration in Africa, contributing a new and inclusive change readiness framework to better understand how to manage ICT or other technological disruptions in resource-restrained contexts.
Tackling ICT incorporation in HEIs from different levels, chapters document case studies from countries such as Uganda, South Africa, Rwanda, Eswatini and Zimbabwe to demonstrate both the complexity of integration but also the successes it has enabled and under which conditions. The cases included in this book also exhibit better incorporation of both change content and process, while some cases also make explicit reference to other technology adoption models. Ultimately, the book highlights conceptual and empirical research to inform practices and policy development in Africa, improving multi-level success or change readiness in ICT incorporation in HEIs in Africa.
Addressing various gaps in existing literature and proposing innovative solutions like the multilevel change readiness model, this book will therefore be of interest to scholars, researchers and academics in the fields of higher education, ICT integration, and educational technology more broadly.
