Abstract

This paper reviews software applications for instructional delivery among Business Education lecturers in universities. Under this review, four software applications were considered which include; lesson planning software applications, lesson presentation software applications, classroom management software applications and assessment software applications. It was found that the availability of these software applications was confirmed and their effectiveness in aiding the design and presentation of instructional delivery was also established. It was also revealed that using software applications for instructional delivery cannot be ignored most especially in the 21st century. The paper therefore concluded that there is a need to ascertain the present training needs of Business Education lecturers in the usage of lesson planning software applications, lesson presentation software applications, classroom management software applications and assessment software applications in order to have an effective and efficient utilization of these software applications for instructional delivery.
