=E-learning initiative plans formally link decisions with the institutional criteria used to allocate resources. =

Evidence
Ellis et al. (2007) identify that central management of the resources for eLearning development can cause tension between management priorities and priorities at faculty level. They suggest that one way to resolve this is to ‘devolve the resource allocation mechanism from the centre toward the faculties. At the University of Sydney this is achieved by giving control of priorities for eLearning resources to the Colleges, who work with their faculties in clarifying strategic eLearning needs’ (pg 22).
