The purpose of this article is to discuss the innovation and development of university education management informationization construction in the context of big data. Through a comprehensive comparison of innovative and traditional university education management information systems, it reveals the advantages of the innovative model in terms of…

Objective: To identify factors that contribute to near-miss collisions between pedestrians and personal transportation devices (PTDs) in a university campus using a novel data collection method, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). Participants: A total of 3,349 pedestrians and 173 PTD riders were detected through UAV observations. Methods: The…

Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to advanced systems capable of creating new content by learning from vast datasets, including text, images, and code. These AI tools are increasingly being integrated into various sectors, including education, where they have the potential to enhance learning experiences. While the existing literature…

Climate change education within UK HE Geography has not produced a common curriculum, despite having an obvious set of learning resources, in the form of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report series, which has in many ways structured knowledge and understanding on climate change, its impacts and mitigation globally for…

Information systems students yearn for hands-on, active learning experiences that teach relevant skills. Delivering these experiences requires repeatable, secure, and scalable computing infrastructure. Unfortunately, many institutions struggle with the capital and operational costs of hosting in-house computing environments. Some educational…

Across the United States, vacancies in the educator workforce have drastically increased, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Leading up to the 2021-22 school year, Colorado schools sought to fill 5,729 teaching positions, representing 10.33% of all teaching positions in the state. A high-leverage need to attract, prepare, and retain teachers in…

The undeniable potential benefits of learning analytics (LA) in education have led to growing investment in developing and integrating LA systems into K-12 schools. Yet, the actual integration and adoption depend on levels of teachers' acceptance and usage. This study aims to propose a conceptual model to reveal the decisive factors affecting…

Higher education institutions rely on part-time faculty to teach a large percentage of courses in a range of disciplines. Existing research indicates that instruction by part-time faculty can negatively impact academic outcomes, student retention, and subsequent interest in a field of study. This study investigates if using a motivational…

Modern Information Technology (IT) infrastructure and open-source software (OSS) have revolutionized our ability to access and process data, enabling us to tackle increasingly complex problems and challenges. While these technologies provide substantial benefits, they often expose users to vulnerabilities that can severely damage individuals and…

This quantitative non-experimental correlational study aimed to examine the significant association between Information System (IS)/Information Technology (IT)/Business Intelligence System (BIS) project managers' digital leadership skills and BIS project success. It also sought to determine if PMP® certification moderated this relationship. The…

Modern digital technologies are advancing rapidly, driving transformative changes. For Information Systems (IS) educators, maintaining curricula that prepare graduates for the digital economy is imperative. This study developed a knowledge pool of 121 common keywords in digital transformation through literature review and investigated their…

In this study, we empirically examine the diffusion of enterprise systems (ES) systems, and the influence of competency factors on firm performance. A model, based on systems and innovation diffusion theories, was developed and a survey instrument used to gather data from a sample of production firms to test the hypothesized model relationships.…

The field of geographic information systems (GIS) has been exclusively associated with positivist epistemological perspectives and quantitative research methods. In a deliberate effort to move away from false notions of objectivity and neutrality, this article proposes the Chicana/Latina feminist GIS methodology of Platicando y Mapeando. By…

The pet care service industry is booming. The U.S. Census Bureau (2019) recorded pet service industry payroll numbers at almost $11.2 billion (excluding veterinarian services). In this teaching case, Mark, the owner of a successful dog boarding business, is looking to capitalize on that growth as he expands his customer demographic to welcome cats…

The increasing use of, and dependence on, Information Technology (IT) to support operational teaching, research, and management activities in Higher Education Institutions (HEI)--mainly due to their multi-unit organizational structure--have evidenced the need of encouraging managers to focus more on IT Governance (ITG) effectiveness, which has…
