Abstract

Although information technology (IT) is playing an increasing role in education, little research has been done on its use by academics in higher education. A questionnaire was sent to 125 members of a university faculty of education and community studies concerning their use of IT. The number of replies received totalled 71, 58 of them from IT users.

Attitudes to IT were generally utilitarian and pragmatic.
