Integrating Technology into the Learning Process of Higher Education: A Creative Inquiry
Industry and Higher Education, v34 n3 p138-150 Jun 2020
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.
