Roberts, F. Douglas; Kelley, Claudia L.; Medlin, B. Dawn
College Student Journal, v41 n2 p423-435 Jun 2007
With technology changing today's business environment, educators must strive to expose students to recent advances in technology, help them understand its impact on business, and foster in them an attitude of continual learning to keep current as change continues. The use of technology in the classroom is one way educators can begin to incorporate technology into the curriculum. A survey examined the extent to which Principles of Accounting faculty members have incorporated technology into their introductory accounting courses and the factors influencing them to do so. These findings provide direction for administrators seeking to encourage the use of technology in the classroom. (Contains 5 tables and 1 footnote.)
