Author(s): Emefiele Daniel Chukwudi

Abstract:

The rapid pace of innovations and changes in technology has affected almost all disciplines of academics and it has become necessary to implement paradigm shifts in order to produce graduates that are relevant and competitive in the world of work. Changes in technologies have introduced a new method of instruction in business education, from classroom teaching to technological based teaching and learning. This is because technology has taken a center stage in the activities of a modern office. At the moment, there seems to be a shift from the manual equipment to electrical and electronics equipment. Business education programme is designed to prepare skilled manpower in our society, but due to changes in technology, this programme is gradually losing its viability, relevance and responsiveness. Therefore, there is an urgent “need for the introduction of modern office technologies in the teaching and learning of business education courses.” These modern technologies will aid business education students in learning new skills, new knowledge, and application of new methods and processes of work execution and business operations. Therefore, the concern of many organizations today is how to get workers that are proficient in the use of modern technologies. It is against this background this paper examines the modern office, technology adoption in business education programme, importance of modern technologies to business education, and “barriers to the adoption of modern technologies in business education” in Nigeria. The paper therefore recommends that facilities and equipment needed for business education programme should be provided and the obsolete ones changed where necessary, business educators should update their skills in other to fit in properly with the current trend, among others.
