This study examines the impact of introducing a laptop program for educational teaching in the classroom. By interviewing experts in the field, teachers, administrators, and students at a college level, a phenomenology was completed on the impact of laptops in pedagogy. These ideals were then applied to the Human-Centered Design Theory. “It was not until twenty years ago that serious progress was achieved in applying the available computer and internet technology to support teaching and learning in schools and institutions of higher education. The technology that was previously only available to large corporations and organizations began to be available in homes, schools and universities. This new shift in technology application has provided both students and educators many new advantages and learning possibilities (Altalib, 4).” The numerous ways in which professors and their students interact has always been a critical issue in higher educational institutes. With the increase in technological enhancements over the past several years, study is needed on how collaboration between faculty and students advance.
