Abstract

This study investigated an innovative technology training model. University faculty members who participated in the e-train express technology initiative for four years (2000 – 2004) were studied. Characteristics of faculty members who successfully integrated technology into their lives and coursework and those who failed to do so were compared. E-train technology participants completed surveys regarding initial technology proficiency and use, set both personal and professional technology goals, and then data were gathered regarding advocate participation and technology projects generated. Regression analyses were used to determine which variables account for the variance between the two groups. Characteristics of successful and non-successful participants are identified.
