| Summary: | Technology has opened up a range of possibilities in the Accounting education. The pedagogy has been influenced by the concept of e-learning, especially e-books, and its benefits to students and professors. This study aims to determine the reading preference and its effect to the academic performance of De La Salle University Accountancy students. This paper provides information that will enable the Accountancy Department to make better decisions with regard to pursuing the use of e-books in some of the courses it offers. The researchers administered surveys using adopted instruments and statistical tools to support findings and make recommendations. The findings reveal that De La Salle University Accountancy students do not prefer e-books, reading preference does not have an effect to the academic performance of the students, and interviewed DLSU Accountancy faculty members who experienced using both e-books and print books in class do not prefer using e-books. |
