Arguments presented center on formulating concepts within a theoretical and conceptual framework. The paper mainly discusses findings aimed at providing a qualitative perspective on academics’ use of emerging technologies to address the challenges of teaching Information and Communication Technology modules in an open and distance e-learning context. Conclusions are presented, including a summary of the most important findings. The findings make an original contribution regarding emerging trends in, and promote the development of knowledge in fields related to, academics’ use of emerging technologies.
