Peer reviewedAlavi, Maryam; Weiss, Ira R. – Journal of Management Information Systems, 1986
Identifies organizational risks of end-user computing (EUC) associated with different stages of the end-user applications life cycle (analysis, design, implementation). Generic controls are identified that address each of the risks enumerated in a manner that allows EUC management to select those most appropriate to their EUC environment. (5…

Michel, George J. – 1974
This paper examines some of the applications of computers in education, focusing on the political and people problems involved. Through this approach it is hoped that superintendents, principals, data processing specialists, and scholars might develop a better awareness and understanding of how to assess the use of computers in school systems. The…

Peer reviewedHayes, Robert L.; Radosevich, Raymond – Long Range Planning, 1974
The authors argue that recent events have given rise to a need for a new class of information related to strategic decisionmaking. They describe some of the characteristics of "ideal" systems to meet this need and suggest a program for building sophisticated systems that will develop toward that ideal. (Author)

Education Turnkey Systems, Inc., Washington, DC. – 1971
This model is a computerized mathematical simulation of the manner in which educational decisions and patterns of school operation affect costs. The design shows how teacher salaries, school building design parameters, and decisions regarding class size and instructional materials expenditures contribute to total school costs. The sophisticated…

Cassel, Russell N. – 1975
The Computerized Decision Development System (DEDEV) is designed to foster decision-making competency in individuals through a two stage process: (1) providing information about scientific decision-making, and (2) providing experience with use of information in "meaty" problems by computerized gaming and simulation. This manual presents the 14…

Adams, Charles F.; And Others – 1981
Project Impact, a support system for the administrative and instructional staff in the Onondaga-Madison BOCES schools, was designed to support a diagnostic-prescriptive approach in the classroom by providing the information the teacher needs in order to make instructional decisions. It consists of a series of computer programs with a large storage…

Harris, JoAnn, Ed. – 1974
Designed to assist Computerized Vocational Information System (CVIS) users in evaluating projects in local secondary school sites, the handbook provides users with a variety of variables or viewpoints from which to assess the CVIS system. Four different approaches are presented to CVIS evaluation: the analysis of use patterns; the reaction of…

Taft, Martin I. – 1967
This paper presents a summary of some recent engineering research in education and identifies some research areas with high payoff potential. The underlying assumption is that a school is a system with a set of subsystems which is potentially susceptible to analysis, design, and eventually some sort of optimization. This assumption leads to the…

Ritch, Stephen W.; Munro, Robert J. – 1978
Management Information Systems (MIS), originally developed in the areas of accounting, management science, and computer processing, are now being applied to decision-making in educational settings. Definitions of MIS are numerous and often vague, but management systems (as distinguished from other information systems) should promote real-time…

McGowan, William N. – 1969
This document, after presenting a general overview of the many changes in secondary education, focuses on a highly selected number of changes that have particular meaning for school administrators. Some of the ramifications of educational technology are discussed with emphasis on information systems, computer assisted instruction, and data…

Weischadle, David E. – 1973
This publication explains in detail the money allocations according to program areas. A total realignment from the traditional line-item school budget, this budget follows both the instructional and noninstructional support program areas, each of which is described in the introductory statements. In addition, the budget represents the output of a…

Tracz, G. S.; Burtnyk, W. A. – 1974
The authors describe an extension that has been made to and subsequently incorporated into the system known as Teacher Cost Models. This approach -- a dollar flow analysis -- identifies and quantifies the factors that contribute to dollar changes in the ON GRID teacher wage-bill from one year to the next. The methodology is applicable at both the…
