Abstract
A suitable approach to implement e-learning in secondary schools is proposed. This is informed by teachers‟ attitudes towards e-learning and availability of resources. This paper presents findings from a survey on availability of e-learning tools of computer studies senior teachers from different senior secondary schools in Gaborone, Botswana, to which a 100 % response rate was achieved. It also presents findings from a survey on attitudes towards e-learning of forty teachers from a missionary aided senior secondary school, and a response rate of 90 % (36/40) was achieved. Data was collected using questionnaires and analysed using Microsoft Excel package. From the results, the authors argue that low-impact blended approach where extra online activities are added to a traditional face-to-face method be used as a suitable approach to implement e-learning in secondary schools. E-learning policies aimed at directing the processes involved in blended learning should be put in place in order to reach desired goals.
