“…There is therefore a strong need to study information privacy in relation to individuals who use social networking sites. Purpose of the Study The current generation of students is growing up in a social environment that is progressively interactive and communication intensive (Li, Greenberg, & Nicholls, 2007). Interaction in social media and networking environments gives rise to issues such as privacy and security.…”

Privacy affects every user who exchanges information over the Internet. In the past few years, the growth of information on social networks (such as Facebook, Twitter, Linkedln) has increased exponentially. Companies are harvesting this information with and without the knowledge ofindividuals. While the exchange ofinformation and seamless interaction between individuals and groups has become an easy task, issues related to this exchange, such as information privacy and security, have created new challenges. This study investigated respondents' attitudes towards privacy on social networking sites. In addition, the study sought to ascertain whether sociodemographic variables and knowledge of privacy issues influence attitudes and privacy concerns towards using social computing sites. Data analysis includes descriptive profile analysis, and statistical validation of attitudes and privacy concerns by means of correlation, regression, and cluster analysis. There was a significant relationship between privacy awareness and knowledge based on information provided by respondents. Most socio-demographic variables did not show significant effects on information privacy concerns. Implications of the findings are discussed. Further research is needed to investigate individual concerns on specific information that is being collected, stored, and shared on popular social networking sites.

“…the matching of academic pairs from the two primary backgrounds in the delivery of a new applied course that combines finance and its relevant technological applications. Learning can also be advanced through experiential methods, particularly in ICT (Li, et al, 2007), and in collaboration with the industry when it comes to graduate internships and work placements. Li, et al (2007) also note that business schools have not generally been effective in teaching information systems.…”

Recent technological developments have enabled a wide array of new applications in financial markets, e.g. big data, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, blockchain, cryptocurrencies, peer-to-peer lending, crowdfunding, and robo-advising, inter alia. While traditionally comprising of computer programs and other technology used to support or enable banking and financial services, the new fintech sector is often seen as enabling transformation of the financial industry. A more moderate and critical view suggests that for the full transformative potential of fintech to be enabled, there is a need for an updated educational curriculum that balances knowledge and understanding of finance and technology. A curriculum that provides a skill portfolio in the two core components and complements them with applied knowledge can support the enabling forces which will render fintech as a true opportunity for the financial service industry and for society as a whole. We attempt a scholarship inquiry into the educational curriculum in finance and technology, aiming to inform this modern educational agenda. We review skills shortages, as identified by firms and experts, and examine the state-of-the art by some of the first educational programs in fintech.

“…Experiential learning supports Bloom's perspective by promoting active learning (Kolb, 1984;Kolb & Kolb, 2005). Experiential learning enables more effective learning in the classroom (Granitz & Koernig, 2011;Hamer, 2000;Li, Greenberg, & Nicholls, 2007). Previous teaching innovations have adopted experiential learning tactics for digital marketing topics such as social media (Bacile, 2013), search engine optimization (Clarke & Clarke, 2014), and user-generated content (Payne, Campbell, Bal, & Piercy, 2011).…”
