Will educational technologies improve the performance of students and make them better prepared to be life long learners?
I don’t think that there is any doubt that accounting students must learn more than ever about information technologies and the web. Business reporting is going to change dramatically with web reporting. It is vital that all accounting faculty and students become familiar with the IASC research report on this topic at http://www.iasc.org.uk/frame/cen3_26.htm In the short run, we will see rapid changes in university curricula to adjust to powerful student demands for e-Commerce. This complicated aspect of commerce is a high priority in business education. There are new e-Business and e-Commerce sections being formed at the AACSB — see http://www.aacsb.edu/e-business/index.html. My bottom line prediction is that education of the future will focus on development and use of knowledge bases. My analogy here is a comparison of a Model T Ford with an F-17 airplane. At age 14, my father could tear apart every component of a Model T, jerry-rig some of the parts in a barn, and have the car up
