“…Traditional instructional technology includes writing boards, writing tools and films; while new technology include computers, the internet and multimedia resources (Laurillard, 2006). In the past, numerous studies examining the use of new instructional technologies in education found mixed feelings and perceptions among instructors in tertiary education (Neo and Neo, 2009;Gratton-Lavoie and Stanley, 2009;Mitchell, 2009;Marlia, 2007;Agbonlahor, 2006;Hacifazlioglu, Sacli and Yengin, 2005;Ryan, Carlton and Ali, 2004;Hanson, 2003;Kewell and Beeby, 2003).

The present study seeks to examine the influence of technology on these four roles. Two hundred and ninety two lecturers teaching in Malaysian tertiary educations were involved in this study. They were using different level of technologies for teaching. Questionnaires were used to solicit their responses which were distributed using various means; online, personal visits and regular mails. The measurement items were mainly adapted from Job Diagnostic Survey developed by Hackman and Oldham. The results from the findings revealed that technology was found giving significant positive impacts on technical and managerial roles. There is no evidence to support the significant influence of technology on the other two roles. The significant findings suggest that lecturers perceive their roles in managing the course and dealing with technical aspect of the job have been enhanced with the use of technology. However, the insignificant findings imply several major issues that are worth contemplating. The main implications of the study are discussed in terms of lecturers' teaching job design, training and performance appraisals.

The 21st century classroom requires instructors with more advanced skills and competencies to deliver materials in a way that engages students both traditional and non-traditional. Traditional students have come to expect the incorporation of technology into their classrooms because they have grown up with it and can see its usefulness, while non-traditional students may need additional resources online in order to reinforce new concepts. By employing Web 2.0 technologies, like online video and discussion boards, into both the online and traditional on-campus classrooms, instructors can address both isolation and different learning styles, as well as address issues relating to problems with understanding concepts being taught and respond positively to feedback provided by both the students and administrators. In addition, utilizing Web 2.0 technology in the online classroom can reduce the isolation that many students feel in these classrooms by ensuring students can communicate with other students as well as the instructor.

“…In addition, online learning will have an impact on prison leadership. Though Mitchell's recent study (Mitchell, 2009) of the impact on education leadership was focused on community colleges, her findings apply to prison leaders who will have to become education leaders as well. Traditional lines of leadership blur.…”
