| dcterms.abstract | The research method adopted the form of quantitative questionnaire, and all questionnaires were distributed to all the 140 junior and senior students who study HTM major in Independent-College A in the local place-Hang Zhou; and the senior students had the first-hand practical experiences and knew the actual IT & computer applications in the hospitality industry. The research analyzed and compared the 36 IT competence items in 6 dimensions (Information preparing, Information handling, Communications. Application of software, Management information systems and Evaluation) through 3 aspects (Cheung & Law, 1999): the college teaching level, the perceived IT importance and students' own competence evaluation. The research mainly found that there was a big gap between these colleges' teaching and the students' perceived importance of IT & computer application to hospitality firms. The research findings could help China Independent-Colleges and higher education to shorten the gap between them, such as, adding more related courses, creating more IT practical cooperation with the hospitality firms, and it could guide the college HTM educational IT& computer application to the hospitality industry in a faster and healthier way. | en_US |
