Additionally, the rapid advance of technology and incorporation intostudents’ lives at earlier ages certainly plays a role in how students may approach a paper-basedversus a computer-based test. With this in mind, it is important to gather up-to-date data onstudents with the described demographic.

A learner’s knowledge comes from his/her pre-existing knowledge and experience; and new knowledge is formed when connecting previous experience to the new content and environment.2. Conflict in the mind or puzzlement is the stimulus for learning and determines the organization and nature of what is learned.3. Knowledge involves social negotiation and the evaluation of the viability of individual understanding.The literature suggests that a change in the development of curriculum in teaching IFEM coursesis worth exploring.
