Use of ICT in the Classroom Teaching of Management

This article reviews the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the classroom teaching of management. In this role of technology as an enabler and not a driver of the teaching/learning process, ICT makes it possible to initiate and develop new pedagogical tools in the classroom. The teaching of management requires the development of a broad range of technical, human and conceptual skills and therefore the use of ICT in the classroom teaching of management is quite extensive. We develop a typology of ICT use in the classroom from a pedagogical perspective and extend it to a simple 2×2 model to classify ICT use. Although ICT is extensively used in management education, most of it is confined to what is described as Type I use in this article that uses local sources and the retrieve mode. There is need as well as potential for expansion of ICT use to other types.
