Sustainability refers to the achievement of present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. While prior research has highlighted the potential of Information Systems (IS) to support sustainability objectives -- for instance, through supporting eco-efficient work practices and democratising healthcare…

The purpose of this quantitative correlational associative study was to determine if and to what extent there was a relationship between the transformational leadership behaviors of CIOs, as perceived by IT employees, and a successful ERP system implementation in higher education in the United States. This study used the Multi-factor Leadership…

Despite the advantages that pervasive tools have brought to education, studies related to the use of pervasive tools are still unclear. The present study systematically reviews the impact of utilizing pervasive tools to provide a comprehensive analysis of 30 research articles published between 2010-2022. The main findings from this study include…

Purpose: This review article is focused on the following research questions: RQ1: What are the methods used by authors to collect data in order to evaluate one's profile? RQ2: What are the classification algorithms and ranking metrics used to give suggestions to users? RQ3: How effective are these algorithms and metrics identified in RQ2?…

In this article we discuss the use of RapidMiner, a data science software platform, in a Database Management Systems course. For further understanding of the database and the skill learned, students are given an assignment to complete, to not only use another software beside SQL Server Management Studio but also translate their findings in a more…

The introductory Information Systems (IS) course is a critical course at the beginning of every IS/IT major's degree. While many textbooks exist that are focused solely on this course, they all vary in the covered topics and the depth of material. This research examined most major textbooks focused on the introductory course and, through…

Today's language learners benefit from cultural awareness, which can be fostered through experiences both at home and during study abroad. One approach to exploring culture that has gained popularity has been the use of geolocation technologies, which can help engage students in class and beyond. The sense of community developed through these…

Maps have been used for centuries to depict the diverse facets of our environment. Thematic maps depict a specific theme and help in revealing geospatial patterns and relations. The study and practice of map making has led to established cartographic design rules. Ever increasing availability of high-quality geospatial data coupled with…

Digital technology always accelerates change, altering organisations culturally, socially and technically. These modifications are known as "digital transformation" (DT). On a much greater scale than DT, the world was changed in 2020 by the COVID-19 pandemic, which re-organised society in the way of thinking, acting, producing, consuming…

The demand for graduates with coursework in business/data analytics continues to grow, and many career rankings list these skills among the top in demand by industry. This study examines trends in how Information Systems (IS) academic departments have adapted to this demand by incorporating business analytics in their departmental naming…

Since 2013, DaSy has tracked the status of Part C and Part B 619 state data systems to understand states' technical assistance needs, provide stakeholders with a national picture of what capacities state data systems have, and to track how those capacities are changing over time. Most recently, in spring of 2021, DaSy collected comprehensive…

The conventional perception of Information Systems (IS) in educational systems, focused on improvement, often confines its role to the technical management of dashboards and performance indicators. Its transformative nature has, however, a profound impact at different levels: individual, institutional and even systemic. Thus, education systems'…

Programmed control systems are ubiquitous in the present-day world. In current educational practice, however, these systems are hardly being addressed, and little is known about children's spontaneous understandings about such systems. Therefore, we explored pupils' understandings prior to instruction in three concrete settings: a car park, an…

This article investigates the impact of integrating authentic and contextualized activities into teaching on students' knowledge construction, grounded in social constructivism principles. The research focuses on applying the real-project approach within a "Mini-Project Workshop" module for third-year Information Systems Development…

Higher education institutions are increasingly seeking ways to leverage the available educational data to make program and course quality improvements. The development of automated curriculum analytics can play a substantial role in this effort by bringing novel and timely insights into course and program quality. However, the adoption of…
