Welcome to MIS2101, Information Systems in Organizations.\u00a0 We will not be using Canvas for this class.\u00a0 Instead we\u2019ll be using this site which is hosted by Community.MIS.Temple.Edu.\u00a0 This site is built on WordPress, a world class open-source blogging tool.\u00a0 As part of completing the assignments in MIS2101 you will gain some experience with WordPress and other technologies.<\/p>\n
Unlike most intro courses, this course has no required textbook.\u00a0 The\u00a0traditional textbook has been replaced by a collection of readings and videos that are freely available over the Internet.\u00a0\u00a0Another way you will find this class very different than most classes you will take at any university is that this class is\u00a0\u201cactivity based\u201d.\u00a0 With this type of class there is far less traditional lecture.\u00a0\u00a0We will used the\u00a0time that is freed up from lectures to\u00a0complete in-class activities that help students develop a\u00a0deeper and more genuine understanding of the material that is discussed during our class discussions.<\/p>\n
On this site you will find all of the required course materials including the syllabus, links to the assigned readings, links to assigned videos, assignments and access to your grades for the course.\u00a0 In addition announcements will be made in class and\/or on this site so it is important that you check this site regularly for announcements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
