Peer reviewedAnderson, Susan E.; Harris, Judith B. – Educational Technology Research and Development, 1997
This study identified factors that best predicted the amount and perceived benefits of network use based on TENET (Texas Education Network) use. A 70-item electronic mail survey measured five categories of variables, and findings suggest that network facilitators should try to increase interactions among potential and current network users.…
