Description

Today, MIS and IS Education play an important role in digital transformation of organizations, countries, and individuals. However, IS education and educators face several challenges in the current environment, including fast-changing technologies, the reoccurrence of the digital divide, preparing students for the changes in the profession, updating the curriculum to integrate new and emerging ideas and 3rd and 4th platform technologies such as artificial intelligence and machine learning, augmented and virtual reality, blockchain, and internet of things among others. The interdisciplinary nature of IS and MIS is creating significant challenges as well. Finding highly skilled faculty members, updating and standardizing curriculum based on fast-changing industry needs, accreditation of MIS departments, and adapting to the needs and expectations of Gen Z students are some of the other challenges to mention. Based on all these challenges, this track aims to provide a platform for MIS educators and researchers to exchange ideas, techniques, and applications for MIS education-related topics mentioned above. Submissions using information systems technology to advance education in other disciplines, especially in agriculture are also welcome. Topics of interest include but not limited to:
