Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare and contrast factors related to computer technology (CT) implementation in the curriculum. The focus was on Malaysian Ministry of Education Polytechnic (MoEP) and a university in the US. The study sought to determine faculty members' attitudes toward CT as well as its availability and use in teaching. Faculty attitudes toward the use of CT in their teaching were very positive; however, adjusting to change and continuous training on CT is needed and must be supported by all stakeholders.
