Chapter 1-19 With Appendix [A B C D E]
Chapter 1
This guide provides many classroom activities, videos, and debates to accompany M:
Information Systems. A few course suggestions:
Create one or two test questions based on the classroom activity to help reward students
who attend lectures.
Many professors have found that assigning an activity and then lecturing on the material
helps students gain a deeper understanding of the core MIS concepts as they have
already struggled with applying the material to a real-world situation.
Asking a small group of students to explain their answer to the activity to the entire class
after completion ensures students come to class prepared. I select a different group each
activity to explain their answer and they do not want to look unprepared in front of their
fellow classmates. It is a powerful motivator to get my students reading prior to class.
After the activity and student’s presentations then I lecture – keeps my students engaged
and helps to achieve a higher level of learning outcomes as they are constantly tasked
with applying the concepts during class.
Create an Ask the Professor Discussion board that runs the entire course where students
can ask course and content related questions. I typically promise to respond within 24
hours and I always encourage my students to check the discussion board before sending
an email. Many times, if one student a question so does other students.
**Three Before Me Rule! This is something I have found that saves a great deal of time
answering email. I state the Three Before Me rule in my syllabus. Before a student
comes to me with a question, they must provide three sources they used to answer the
question themselves. This significantly cuts down on emails as many times students can
find the answer to their questions, but it seems easier just to email the professor.
Sources can include the syllabus, the Ask the Professor Q&A Discussion Board, classmates,
the textbook, etc. If I ask the student for the three sources and they do not have them I
dock participation points. Works great on significantly cutting down my emails and helps
to prepare my students for the real world!
The core chapter material is covered in detail in the PowerPoint slides. Each slide contains
detailed teaching notes including exercises, class activities, questions, and examples.
Please review the PowerPoint slides for detailed notes on how to teach and enhance the
core chapter material.
Enjoy your course and best of luck!

anticipated learning objectives for students. Explain to your students that the goal of this

LEARNING OUTCOMES
Learning Outcome 1.1: Describe the information age and the differences between
data, information, business intelligence, and knowledge.
We live in the information age, when infinite quantities of facts are widely available to anyone
who can use a computer. The core drivers of the information age include data, information,
business intelligence, and knowledge. Data are raw facts that describe the characteristics of
an event or object. Information is data converted into a meaningful and useful context.
Business intelligence (BI) is information collected from multiple sources such as suppliers,
customers, competitors, partners, and industries that analyzes patterns, trends, and
relationships for strategic decision making. Knowledge includes the skills, experience, and
expertise, coupled with information and intelligence that creates a person’s intellectual
resources. As you move from data to knowledge you include more and more variables for
analysis resulting in better, more precise support for decision making and problem solving.
Learning Outcome 1.2: Explain systems thinking and how management
information systems enable business communications.
A system is a collection of parts that link to achieve a common purpose. Systems thinking is a
way of monitoring the entire system by viewing multiple inputs being processed or
transformed to produce outputs while continuously gathering feedback on each part.
Feedback is information that returns to its original transmitter (input, transform, or output)
and modifies the transmitter’s actions. Feedback helps the system maintain stability.
Management information systems (MIS) is a business function, like accounting and human
resources, which moves information about people, products, and processes across the
company to facilitate decision making and problem solving. MIS incorporates systems thinking
