Computer-Supported Learning of Information Systems

Abstract

New information technologies (IT) can enhance management information systems (MIS) education by improving the quality of the learning experience. This chapter proposes a tri-dimensional conceptual model based on the pedagogical assumptions of the course, the time dimension of the communication between students and professors, and the geographical location of learners and instructors. The implications of the model are reviewed in terms of their potential to contribute to teaching MIS courses and doing research in computer-supported MIS education.
