Large Scale Change Issues

Quote from Fullan "The answer to large-scale reform is not to try to emulate the characteristics of the minority who are getting somewhere under present condition. Rather, we must change existing conditions so that it is normal and possible for a majority of people to move forward" (Fullan, 2001, p268)
Comment by Stephen Marshall:
"I think we're so distracted by the impressive work of early adopters and the potential of new technology that its easy to lose sight of the different priorities most academics have. Its not even a question of whether they can engage in e-learning, its why they should do it instead of other aspects of their work."
