Abstract

The use of educational technology which can be defined as the facilitation of teaching and learning by the creation and usage of technological processes and resources has seen a significant increase in higher education institutions. The effectiveness of the educational technology is closely linked to its adoption rate. In this article the researchers examine the lack of adoption of education technology on an instant student, lecturer feedback system. A Web Application is built to track interactions between students and the supervisor during the Capstone project as well as provide instant regular feedback to lecturers after every class conducted. The paper zooms in on adoption rates as well as the system's fitness for purpose and concludes by recommending a framework for adoption.
