Implications Regarding Computer Technology Attitudes of New Employees

Abstract

Employee attitudes toward computer technology change over time. As computer technology becomes increasingly more prevalent throughout society and throughout the educational process, appreciative and critical attitudes toward the technology change. Understanding these attitudes can help organizations develop appropriate strategies to improve organizational effectiveness. Entry-level employees often present the greatest challenge for assimilation into the organization. Because today's student becomes tomorrow's entry-level employee, an examination of today's students to determine the appreciative and critical attitudes of future employees can prove beneficial in making modifications to organizational policies and procedures.
