Description
Summary:The paper intends to bridge the continuously evolving organisations in their quest for competitive, efficient and highly educated employees and the students whose psychological profile changed due to Internet technologies, information availability and use of mobile equipment. Thus, universities -- as the main pillars of training and educating the future specialists, have a tough task being midway between employers and employees. The study aims at identifying whether students call for changes in the traditional education towards adopting e/m-Learning in teaching. The research task is to identify if the educational process in Romania is conducive to embracing new technologies like e/m-Learning. We used an applied exploratory research methodology, which combines direct observations with critical analysis. By means of the questionnaire-based study, the students' perception toward the educational process was obtained, and the trend that academic community should adopt under the actual technological challenges was shaped. Throughout hypothesis validation, the results confirm that teaching, learning and assessment within Romanian traditional universities are significantly supported by e/m-Learning.
