Limitations purchasing devices, software, and infrastructure upgrades.
• Security and Privacy Concerns: Ensuring data security and protecting the privacy
of students and staff is crucial. Integrating new technologies comes with the risk of
data breaches and requires robust security measures.
• Infrastructure Limitations: Existing infrastructure may not support the demands of
new technologies. Upgrading networks, ensuring sufficient bandwidth, and
maintaining hardware can be challenging and costly.
Scenario: The university is attempting to implement a new learning platform that will help students with materials
required for their assessments. The issue is that the platform only runs on new model computers and some
students does not have computers. Due to insufficient funding the institution can’t provide this computers for them,
leading to unequal access to these materials, ultimately impacting the effectiveness of the integration. Overcoming
these challenges requires comprehensive planning, investment, and support
