Integration of Electronic Mail into Schools.
Wiebe, Eric N.
Journal of Educational Computing Research, v21 n1 p55-73 1999
Examines the introduction of electronic mail into three elementary schools. A contingency model of technology adoption by organizations was used to develop the instruments and interpret results. Findings indicated that a majority of the contingency factors (expectations, influence of peers and administrators, training, technical support, and others) were correlated to e-mail usage, and helped explain differences in usage.
