Abstract
As the entry-level IT jobs could be easily outsourced offshore, the demand for U.S. employees who have high-level technical skills as well as competent management and communication skills is growing among the U.S. companies. This article presents how IT educators can use a model of integrating students’ intelligence quotient (IQ), emotion quotient (EQ), and creativity quotient (CQ) as a foundation for designing integrated IT courses that would help students to achieve synergistic transformational success and to meet market demand. First, the paper presents the need for the IQ+EQ+CQ integration in the IT education and its theoretical foundations. Second, the integrated 3Q model is introduced with examples of how to apply the model to designing and delivering integrated IT courses. Third, empirical testing methods were presented. Finally, the implications of this integrated 3Q model are discussed.
