Enterprise Integration: An Experiential Learning Model Brian H. Cameron Pennsylvania State University University Park, PA 16802 USA Sandeep Purao Pennsylvania State University University Park, PA 16802 USA

Abstract: With the ceaseless development of new and more advanced technologies, along with their growing influence and control over business and commerce, it is no surprise that the educational community is struggling to come up with programs to educate students to adequately handle these developments. Textbooks are becoming a thing of the past, for information and standards are changing faster than any publisher is willing to re-publish. Instead, a student of advancing business technologies must be able to adapt and learn from the ‘here and now’ while efficiently filtering out any antiquated information. These students must also be able to handle the myriad technologies currently in use and solve complex problems. This paper investigates innovations in experiential learning and their application to enterprise systems integration education.

Keywords: enterprise integration, enterprise systems education, experiential learning, problem-based learning
