Abstract

Reports on a study conducted in 1998 at the Louisiana State University College of Agriculture on using technology in the classroom environment. Results indicate that students are generally computer literate with 80 per cent either owning or planning to purchase a personal computer in the next year. Eighty-five per cent prefer computer-supported teaching that includes the Internet and multimedia classroom technologies. Sixty-five per cent of students believe that computer-based technology in the classroom is very important regarding future competitiveness in the job market. Finally, significant gaps were found between student proficiency and desire to learn more about many technologies including databases, presentation graphics, video presentations and Web page design. © 2000, MCB UP Limited
