“…Competition has increased, and it has become more difficult to sustain and keep up on a global scale with numerous players and different HE providers (Czinkota and Pinkwart, 2012; Jamshidi et al, 2012). As a consequence, HEIs are also finding themselves struggling for resources (Gjerding et al, 2006), with shrinking governmental support (Bowen, 2012; Breneman, 2011; Gjerding et al, 2006; Sheets et al, 2012) on the one hand and, on the other, an increase in costs (Bowen, 2012). In turn, an ongoing trend of market orientation can be observed (Bowen, 2012; Breneman, 2011; Gjerding et al, 2006; Sheets et al, 2012; Thomas and Cornuel, 2012).…”

As students have to pay more for their education, they are also demanding higher standards and a certain quality of educational experience, and thus they behave more and more like actual customers.…”

“…The strongest sector in the e-learning market is the academic sector, which accounts for over 50% of the total e-learning market share. With the globalization of the higher education (HE) industry, shrinking governmental support and cost increases (Bowen, 2012; Breneman, 2011; Gjerding et al, 2006; Sheets et al, 2012), higher education institutions (HEIs) like universities and business schools are challenged to sustain themselves in an ever-more competitive environment. Consequently, many HEIs today envisage alternative and differentiated modes of learning, focusing especially on new educational models that build on e-learning (Johnson et al, 2016).…”

Previous studies have attempted to examine and explain the integration of technology into the learning process. Most of these studies are related to the disciplines of pedagogy and informatics. The rest of the relevant literature cannot be definitively assigned to one discipline, but is often located at the intersection with the field of management. Taking a creative inquiry approach to analyzing this body of literature, the following key issues have been identified as of major relevance for future research. First, we must further explore what kind of influence the organizational culture of higher education institutions (HEIs) has on the strategy and implementation of integrating technology into the learning process. Second, we need to determine whether the integration of technology into the learning process at HEIs has the potential to support organizational development (mission, etc.) and/or adaptation, and whether an entrepreneurial culture could foster this potential.
