課程概述

In this course, we will cover a broad range of topics related to information systems and management as well as research methods commonly employed in IS research (e.g., survey, experiment, analytical modeling, design science, etc.). Most articles discussed in class are published in top-tier IS journals. Besides the lectures by the instructors or guest lecturers, the course will also be conducted in the paper-presentation-and-critic format. Through reading and presenting assigned papers, students are expected to gain an understanding on contemporary IS research and to establish appropriate perception about what a research is. Complementarily, through paper discussions and critics, students are expected to improve their critical and logical thinking and to develop their competence in identifying and justifying interesting and valuable research questions, both of which are essential research capabilities that doctoral students need to learn.
 

課程目標
The objective of this course is to give students an overview of research on information systems and management (or IS research for short). Information systems/technologies adopted by and deployed in firms generally have implications for improving firm performance and competitive advantages as well as enabling business innovation and transformation. However, how to realize these benefits relies on firm’s effective management of such information systems/technologies. Hence, IS research focuses on the effective and efficient management, development, deployment, and utilization of information systems/technologies by individuals, groups, organizations, or society for the improvement of the business, the economy and/or social welfare.

Paper Presentations 
40% 
For each week having paper presentations and discussions, two articles (or three articles, depending on the size of the class) will be assigned. For each article to be presented, one student will be assigned as a presenter to go over the paper. The presenter needs to prepare a 50-minute presentation on the assigned article. All other students in the class are also expected to finish the reading and participate in discussions. Besides presenting the material reported in the assigned article, the presenter needs to highlight the following: - What is the research gap(s)? What are the major contributions (both academic and practical) of the study? Justify. - What are the major research questions/objectives? Have the research questions been addressed adequately? - What are the major strengths? - What are the areas of concern (challenges to the contribution or to validity of the research)? What can we do to address these areas of concern if we were to conduct the same research. - What are the shortcomings of the study? - How can this study be improved and what are the possible extensions of the study? - What is the evolution of research relevant to the topic investigated in this study? To answer this question, you may need to conduct additional literature search, review, and summary. After each paper presentation, the instructor will facilitate in-class discussions. Thus, besides understanding the details of the research study reported in the article, all students in the class should also focus on the aforementioned questions. 
2. 
Research Project Proposal and Presentation 
10% 
You are required to undertake individually a term research project related to IS research. Your term project needs to clearly address a research question and provide useful research results to the topic under investigation. Before you decide the project direction and scope, you are encouraged to discuss your thoughts and plan with the instructors. In your project proposal and during the project proposal presentation, you are required to 1) clearly state the motivation and importance of your research project, 2) provide a preliminary literature review, 3) propose your research model (or design), and 4) conclude with expected research results. You are expected to prepare a 15-minute project proposal presentation and a 5-page written project proposal. 
3. 
Research Project Report and Presentation 
35% 
At the end of semester, 30 minutes are allocated to each project presentation. Again, you are expected to report the research motivation and objective, literature review, detailed research model (or design), and your plan for data collection and data analysis. In addition, you have to show the significance of your research project by discussing your contributions to the topic under investigation and other areas related to your research project. 
4. 
Participation 
15% 
Students are strongly encouraged to participate in class discussions. Levels of participation will be evaluated based on each student's contribution to class discussions, not just on class attendance.
