In the Mail This Week

Received an email from Carl Drott at Drexel University.  Carl, who's made several thought-provoking comments to items on this blog, is on sabbatical in Budapest, Hungary (intriguing pictures and commentary on his blog).  He sent along these links 1, 2, to a site concerning student-written case studies.  As Carl said in his email, they seem to be more general business, MBA-level links, but there might be some interesting ways for the undergraduate MIS class to use them or write cases, too.

One idea relating to a topic above:  Ask the students to find and describe innovative applications of IS to a business case.  Maybe use an existing case and ask how innovative applications could deal with a case problem, or maybe take a company and ask the students to write a case on how an innovative IS could facilitate the company's competitive strategy.

Food for thought!
