Integrating ICT in Business Education: Using TPACK to Reflect on Two Course Redesigns

An increasing number of researchers have found that business teachers need to redesign their education and teaching in order to facilitate a new generation of business students. At the same time, several powerful tools such as online assessments or virtual classroom tools are currently available for business teachers to enrich the learning experience of their students. A thoughtful (re-) design of online and blended learning activities is critical for the attainment of rich learning and hands-on experiences for our future business managers. In order to provide a rich learning experience for a new generation of business students, it is important that content, technology and pedagogy are equally balanced.
