Technology, Preprocessing, and Resistance--A Comparative Case Study of Intensive Classroom Teaching
Adria, Marco; Rose, Teresa
Journal of Education for Business, v80 n1 p53-60 Sep-Oct 2004
In this article, the authors report on two international case studies that used comparable applications of information and communication technologies (ICTs) and were undertaken in comparable academic areas and levels of study. In the two cases, the authors explored faculty resistance to the use of ICTs for teaching and learning in higher education. The two cases differed in institutional context and some student characteristics. The cases were significantly similar in the codification of teaching and learning activities using ICTs. This codification is associated with an occasion for transforming the role of the instructor. The authors present potentials and pitfalls of this teaching mode. (Contains 1 table and 2 notes.)
