【 摘 要 】

The eLearning technology and its integration in higher education's open and distance learning is generally claimed as matured, however actual information gathered on the ground states otherwise. This descriptive research investigated its implementation status in the Cordillera Administrative Region. It explored into the competency of faculty in course content development skills, their engagement and involvement in professional development activities, their integration of ICT in the curriculum and their eLearning culture particularly on their access of eLearning resources. The management support particularly on leadership and planning, support to ICT infrastructure, professional development, eLearning culture, and ICT in the Curriculum were also part of the investigation. Data analysis revealed that generally, faculty are ready to implement eLearning however, management should look into retooling its leadership to support the program in terms of leadership and planning, eLearning culture, and ICT infrastructure support. A roadmap was developed to serve as an implementation plan in addressing the identified issues in eLearning adoption to open and distance education. This roadmap may also service as guide for academic institutions, researchers, administrators and leaderships in implementing similar programs.
