Produktbeschreibung

The rapid growth in the number and types of learning technologies has the potential to influence international business education and internationalization. The domain of business education, both local and international, may have lagged in terms of adoption and exploitation of these technologies. This issue focuses on the problems underlying diffusion and management of technologies in business education and aims to understand the evolution, development, diffusion and impact of these technologies in business education in an international context. This special issue is an attempt to comprehend the impact of technology management in business education settings. Furthermore, it provides platform to researchers to share their findings to decision makers and fellow researchers.This special issue begins with a research article on "e;Can Clicking Promote Learning?
