Abstract

A multiple case study was implemented, implementing a qualitative open-ended interview that brought forward three different specialization area faculty groups that reflect diverse educational perspectives as revolving and evolving around the potential of eSports upon the contributing author's field of study as well as the field of higher education as an overarching umbrella understanding. The prompts to which the contributors respond include an understanding of eSports upon higher education and the field of study, from a historical view, a current snapshot, as well as future-leaning implications. Further, the contributors respond to prompts that focus upon perceptions of eSports implications associated with the faculty responsibilities designated as teaching, research, and service.
