Summary and Citations:

 Hall's paper shared the results of a survey of 61 faculty member's perceptions about the learning technologies used in graduate management education. The study spent a significant amount of time promoting a "two-stage variable classification methodology based on neural nets and CART" (Hall, 2013, p. 48).

The results of the instructor perceptions survey boils down to recognizing that some faculty
adapted with the instructional shift, adopting the new technologies, and other resisted the change. The results supported theories and speculation about this in other literature.
