Use of technology in the classroom
I noticed today for the first time how management classes use more technological advanced mediums than other majors. My fiance is going to school to get his teaching credential and all of his classes and assignments are out of textbooks, nothing is online. My classes on the other hand all have online slides, activities and group work. I wonder if that is because teachers are trained to use common means for teaching whereas managers are taught to exercise the use of technology as they will in the workplace. Organizations are at the forefront of technological advances and as future managers we must be prepared to use them. Without technology, managers would not be able to effectively manage their companies.

I'm an accounting major and my accounting information systems class made me appreciate technology so much! We were assigned a project where we had to do the whole accounting system manually. The whole process was very time-consuming and I would have never wanted to be an accountant if we didn't have the software we have now. I agree that business majors use more technology at home and in the classroom than other majors at SJSU. So much technology and computer work used to be overwhelming, but I think most students are used to it now.
