ABSTRACT
The take-up of learning technologies across
organisations is rarely uniform despite apparent
equity in access to training and support. This
research aims to explore the origins of differential
adoption in the context of the introduction of a
learning management system. Two exploratory
studies are described, both conducted as parts of a
longitudinal insider action research project. The first
draws on one of the authors reflective journal that
transcends
the
introduction,
launch,
and
implementation of a pan-university Learning
Management System. The second analyses focus
group data, firstly, from technology staff supporting
the adoption process and, secondly, from teaching
staff who adopted the new system. By triangulating
data from these two approaches and three sources,
we provide insights into the antecedent attitudes and
capacities which shape the adoption of learning
technologies by academic teaching staff. The
implications for supporting learning technology
adoption will be outlined.

1 INTRODUCTION
The term, Learning Management System
(LMS), refers to the infrastructure that allows
teaching staff to design and deliver instructional
content, supervise learning progress, and
communicate with learners in the online
environment [1-3]. LMSs have been
extensively implemented by universities in
