Abstract: This research assesses student perceptions of newer pedagogies within the business curriculum. The purpose of this study is to advise business faculty regarding potential student behavioral responses to these newer pedagogies. Because different students will experience these instructional changes differently, it is important that the business faculty understand the potential behavioral responses on the part of the students. This is particularly important so that the business instructor can take steps to anticipate and mitigate adverse responses on the part of some students which would otherwise limit the effectiveness of the newer pedagogies in achieving their stated goals. Thus, this research endeavors to facilitate the introduction of non-traditional pedagogies and increase their effectiveness by providing business faculty with a better understanding of the behavioral implications of less traditional instructional approaches.
