About

Welcome to MIS2101, Digital Systems. Please note that we do not have a traditional syllabus for this course. You will find all the information typically included in a traditional syllabus, (plus all our course materials, including schedule) here on our Community Course Site. Our class is unique, and it is important to note that Canvas will only be utilized for our graded materials including Assignments, Exams, and In-Class Activities. We will not use canvas for any communication or posting of any grades! Instead, we’ll be using this site which is hosted by Community.MIS.Temple.Edu. This site is built on WordPress, a world class open-source blogging tool. A key component of our semester is gaining insight & experience with various technologies including WordPress.

We will explore the systems which organizations use to create their digital products, including the platforms which these systems are built upon and the API ecosystem by which systems extend their reach and capability. We will discuss cyber-security including the risks and responses that surround our digital products. Finally, in this Age of Software, students will be introduced to the creation of software by learning the basics of programming in JavaScript.

This site is a guide to all the required course materials including the syllabus, links to the assigned readings & videos, in-class activities, assignments, and access to canvas content including your current grade(s) for the course. Listen carefully to your instructor for any updates & announcements made in class and/or on this site. It is important that you check this site regularly!
