Journal Title: BEST : International Journal of Humanities , Arts, Medicine and Sciences ( BEST : IJHAMS ) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
When one considers the landscape of technology in higher education, being proactive becomes vital to stay relevant, solvent, and relevant. Technology integration becomes a lifeline to staying in business in any institution of higher education with the new generation of tech-savvy students as consumers. “About 50 experts spent time narrowing down a list of 80 potential technologies to these six: In a year or less, massively open online courses and tablets could become mainstream. In two to three years, games and gamification, and learning analytics could follow suit. And four to five years down the line, 3D printing and wearable technology could see widespread use (Roscoria, 2013, p. 4). Administrators must have a forward thinking mentality that puts sound policy in place to handle these emerging technologies.
