Abstract
Considering the take-up of e-learning platforms at Higher Education Institutions(HEI) as an innovation process, it is arguable that HEI have to be themselves re-designed and that innovations promoted at a course level should therefore be articulated within a broader institutional level. This creating conditions for successful re-think the HEI intervention, allowing more flexible operational modes. Focusing in the development of knowledge and understanding about the adoption and use of e-learning systems in HEI, a case study was structured based in an iniciative being launched at a traditional university department. Elements of the environmental, organisational and information system context are identified as key influences of the innovation process.
