ISBN: 007-798305X Course Content in Angel. We will use everyday in class. Web page: http://angel.msu.edu Statement on Academic Integrity and Honor Code: It is assumed that all work done for credit will be the result of the individual?s or authorized group?s unaided effort. Anyone who either gives or receives unauthorized assistance in the preparation of work at home or during tests in class will be subject to disciplinary action under the provisions and policies set forth by . Your signature on any piece of submitted work will provide assurance that you have neither given nor received any unauthorized help in its preparation. Honor Code: A committee representing undergraduates has authored our Broad School Honor Code. This Honor Code will serve as our ethical guideline for ITM 309. The full text for the Undergraduate Student Honor Code can be found at the following url: http://www.bus.msu.edu/information/news.cfm?newsid=767 Course Overview and Course Objectives Organizations are increasingly complex as they transact and collaborate with a diverse set of customers and vendors. Products and services are created with shorter life cycles using a distributed workforce where employees, customers, vendors all may be located anywhere around the globe. Information systems play a critical role in ensuring that the information needed to support such complex enterprises is available and can be effectively used. This course will help you develop systems thinking?the ability to understand the complexity of a business enterprise by systematically examining the business processes underlying the enterprise and the flow of information within and between such processes. Specifically, the ITM 309 course objectives are: Learn about the role of information systems in improving business performance. Understand the different types of information technologies and how they are used in business organizations. Understand the principles of effective information technology management and use by individuals and organizations. Information Technology Skills Information Technology skills taught in ITM 309 will enable students to: Be able to model business processes and simulate financial and operational effects of a technological change on a business process. Be adept at extracting and analyzing data from a database to enhance managerial decision making. Be adept at organizing and analyzing data for business decisions using decision support tools. Develop stronger skills in learning how to understand emerging information technologies. Special Needs Students with special needs should feel free to speak with the instructor at the beginning of the semester so that any special needs can be accommodated. It is important to maximize everyone?s learning opportunities and experiences during the semester. The instructor is committed to doing his part in making your experience a pleasant and productive one. Grading Scale Final grades will be based on the following scale: Grading Your final course grade will be determined as follows: Exams Scoring There will be three written multiple choice exams. Each exam is worth 150 points. Students who submit an approved and signed excused absence to the Instructor two days prior to the Exam may have the opportunity to take an Essay Make-Up Exam, pending Instructor approval. Team Project Scoring We will have a comprehensive team project, which focuses on the many aspects of how Information Technology is used to improve business performance. The Team Project will be based on an integrative case called ?The Broadway Café?. This cohesion case will be used to tie together the different concepts studied in class and will be worked on by teams as the semester progresses. The Instructor and TAs will provide guidance to teams as the team project assignments are given during lectures. Teams will be assigned in your Recitation Section for the team project. We have set aside some recitation sessions to work on the Team Project as a team with your TA providing guidance. Grading for the team project will be determined by both quality of project results and participation by individual team members on the team. Any team project handed in late, but within 24 hours of the due date will receive, at best, a low pass for the grade. Assignments Scoring We will have several technology skill assignments that focus on integrating Information Technology and business skill development. Business Process Modeling, Microsoft Access database software, Decision Support using Excel, and Wikis are several of the technologies we will learn during the assignments. Any assignment handed in late, but within 24 hours of the due date will receive, at best, a low pass for the assignment grade. There may also be additional technology skill assignments which will be announced as in-class assignments within Recitation. Extra Credit points will be awarded for completion of these in-class assignments. Participation Scoring Participation points will be awarded for completing and submitting the two MISource Assignments. Students are expected to learn Excel and Access by first using the MISource CD in a self-taught manner. Students will be required to complete these Participation Assignments prior to seeking assistance with their Assignments during Office Hours. Additional Participation Points may be offered as Extra Credit and these exercises will be announced during each corresponding lecture or recitation. Attendance during lecture or recitation is required to earn full credit Participation Points. Students who miss a Participation Exercise, but who have submitted an approved and signed excused absence to the Instructor prior to class, will be considered for full credit of participation points, pending on Instructor discretion and approval. Attendance Lecture and recitation attendance is expected and is essential to do well in the class. Attendance will be taken electronically (using ID scanners throughout lecture hall) on Mondays and Wednesdays in lecture. Please be certain your current MSU ID works in the card reader and scan in between the time period of 20 minutes prior to class to 5 minutes after class begins. If you don?t hear a beep, a new MSU ID can be obtained at the . Attendance will ONLY be tracked electronically using the card scanner. Scanning another student?s ID for them when they do not personally attend class and/or scanning your ID without attending class are violations of Academic Integrity. Attendance is not factored into your grade directly; however, students achieving excellent attendance of over 90% of classes will be rewarded if their course grade is a borderline case within 10 points or 1.0% of the next higher grade. Many lectures will provide insights regarding assignments and exams and therefore attendance during lectures is highly recommended to succeed with the class. For recitation, you must attend the recitation section for which you are registered. 1 100-92% 4.0 74.9-70% 2.0 91.9-87.0% 3.5 69.9-65% 1.5 86.9-80.0% 3.0 64.9-60% 1.0 79.9-75.0% 2.5 59.9 and below 0.0 Exams (3) 450 points Team Project: Cohesion Case 220 points Assignments (6) 330 points Total 1000 points ASSIGNMENT TOPIC POINTS #1A & #1B MISource (2 Participations) 30 #2 WBI Business Process Modeler 60 #3 WBI Business Process Modeler 60 #4 Access ?
