This study focuses on the implementation of Learning Management System (LMS) in the higher education sector in Iraq. Its aim is to develop a policy adoption framework for LMS implementation by scientifically investigating LMS adoption using a model that combines the principles of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Technology-Organisation-Environment (TOE) framework. The research methodology comprises of seven stages that adopts the interpretive paradigm and a mixed-methods research design. A case study design is used to investigate LMS integration in the University of Al-Qadisiyah. A TAM-TOE questionnaire is developed for the academic staff of the University of Al-Qadisiyah, in which the perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use of LMS are analysed in the case organisation. The technological, organisational, and environmental aspects of LMS implementation are also examined. The survey received valid responses from 283 academic staff. In-depth semi-structured interviews of 8 academics, administrative staff and IT personnel contributed to the qualitative data. The survey respondents are selected using stratified sampling whilst purposive sampling is used to select the interview participants. The questionnaire data was analysed using correlation analysis, whilst thematic analysis is used for the interview data. The study identifies the barriers to LMS implementation as: Lack of or limited teachers’ training, lack of commitment to constructivist pedagogy, lack of experience to use the new technology, lack of technical support, and lack of appropriate educational software. These results feed into the policy framework design. The contribution to research knowledge includes the creation of a new adoption model derived from TAM and TOE to examine the LMS implementation barriers in a war recovering economy like Iraq. This approach the integration of academic users’ acceptance with macro-level factors like government support. The results lease to the development of the LMS policy framework to guide policy makers to prioritise their limited LMS investments. The novelty of the work is the bringing together the considerations of the individual users and the socio-economic context.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissert Rodrigo Motta Molardi.pdf: 3182830 bytes, checksum: 121a768a1f7588bf488dba3c98caa2a1 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-11-17 / Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo principal identificar e analisar os Fatores Críticos (FC) que causam maior impacto em iniciativas de gerenciamento de processo de negócio (Business Process Management - BPM) na Administração Pública, direta ou indireta, com o intuito de não apenas aumentar o conhecimento na área, mas também diminuir a complexidade do seu processo de implementação por parte das organizações públicas. Para realizar a identificação dos FC realizou-se um Mapeamento Sistemático da Literatura (MS) em cinco bases de dados digitais, buscando estudos primários que pudessem fornecer as informações necessárias para pesquisa. O MS teve o retorno de dez estudos primários relevantes que possibilitaram a identificação de um total de trinta FC. A etapa de análise dos fatores críticos contou com as interpretações quantitativas e qualitativas dos mesmos, a comparação com os FC em BPM no setor privado, identificados através de uma compilação de teses ou dissertações que já haviam realizado este tipo de estudo, e da definição do nível de maturidade de cada FC através de questionário submetidos a quatro especialistas em BPM na Administração Pública. Com a análise, foi possível identificar os FC relevantes, entender as facilidades e dificuldades encontra nas iniciativas de BPM e entender o quão maduro estão cada FC na realidade das organizações públicas. O número reduzido de estudos primários relevantes e o baixo nível de maturidade dos FC apontam para as dificuldades da gestão por processo de negócio na Administração Pública, aumentando a relevância desta pesquisa para incentivar o conhecimento e a realização de trabalhos futuros sobre o assunto. / The main objective of this research is to identify and analyze the Critical Factors (CF) that have the greatest impact on Business Process Management (BPM) initiatives in Public Administration, in order to not only increase the knowledge in the area, but also reduce the complexity of their adoption by public organizations. In order to perform the identification of the CF, a Systematic Literature Mapping (SM) was carried out in five digital databases, searching for primary studies that could provide the information needed for research. The SM returned ten relevant primary studies that allowed the identification of thirty FC. The critical factors analysis stage performed quantitative and qualitative interpretations, the comparison with CF in BPM in the private sector, identified through a compilation of theses or dissertations that had already performed this type of study, and the definition of the level of maturity of each CF through questionnaire submitted to four specialists in BPM in Public Administration. With the analysis, it was possible to identify some relevants CF, to understand the facilities and difficulties found in the BPM initiatives and to understand how mature each critical factor is in the reality of public organizations. The reduced number of relevant primary studies and the low level of maturity of the CF points to the difficulties for the business process management in the Public Administration, increasing the relevance of this research to encourage the knowledge and the accomplishment of future work on the subject.

[pt] A pandemia de COVID-19 acelerou e potencializou os efeitos de soluções e problemas conhecidos e enfrentados previamente no contexto offshore, tais como as dificuldades de programação de barcos e voos, longos lead times de suprimento e restrições regulamentares, intensificando desafios de planejamento e execução de intervenções. Visando contribuir para a melhor gestão da operação de Unidades Marítimas (UMs), propõe-se investigar os principais desafios e lições aprendidas na manutenção da integridade de plataformas em situações de ruptura de cadeias de suprimento como a vivenciada em função do COVID-19. Para explorar tais desafios e lições aprendidas, pretende-se investigar: (i) A definição e os principais indicadores de integridade no contexto das UMs, (ii) Como a literatura tem tratado a ruptura em cadeias de suprimento? (iii) Quais são os fatores críticos para o planejamento de intervenções offshore para manutenção da integridade? (iv) Como a manutenção da integridade de uma UM é abordada numa empresa que opera no Brasil e (v) Como a ruptura da cadeia de suprimentos ocasionada pela COVID-19 afetou o planejamento e execução da manutenção da integridade, seus efeitos na integridade de uma UM e formas de minimizá-los. A investigação foi feita por meio da revisão de escopo da literatura existente e através do estudo de caso de uma organização que produz petróleo no Brasil e levantou pontos para observância de gestores, acadêmicos e demais partes interessadas, que podem aprofundar em grupos de trabalho multidisciplinares aspectos que venham a facilitar a gestão de eventuais novos momentos de ruptura, seja em operações, gestão de contratos, estratégia ou gestão de suprimentos. / [en] The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated and potentiated the effects of solutions and problems known and previously faced in the offshore context, such as difficulties in scheduling boats and flights, long supply lead times and regulatory restrictions, intensifying challenges in planning and executing interventions. Aiming to contribute to better management of the operation of Offshore Units (UMs), it is proposed to investigate the main challenges and lessons learned in maintaining the integrity of platforms in situations of disruption of supply chains such as the one experienced due to COVID-19. In order to explore such challenges and lessons learned, we intend to investigate: (i) The definition and main indicators of integrity in the context of UMs, (ii) How has the literature dealt with disruption in supply chains? (iii) What are the critical factors for planning offshore integrity maintenance interventions? (iv) How maintaining the integrity of a UM is addressed in a company operating in Brazil and (v) How the disruption of the supply chain caused by COVID-19 affected the planning and execution of maintaining the integrity of a UM, its effects on the integrity of a UM and ways to minimise them. The investigation was carried out through a scoping review of the existing literature and through a case study of an organisation that produces oil in Brazil and called for notable points for observation by managers, academics and other interested parties, who can delve deeper into multidisciplinary working groups aspects that facilitate the management of possible new moments of disruption, whether in operations, contract management, strategy or supply management.
