A Qualitative Study of Student Perspectives and Experiences in an Information Technology Education Program

Abstract

dc:description

"Overall, this investigation showed that students perceived this broad-based education program for IT as an intermediate field that filled a significant niche in college education caused by the recent technological innovations: between technical and social, between school and everyday life, and between formal education and the ""real world."" The results have practical implications for the development of IT programs in college and for future research directions."
