Description
This track features
teaching case studies. Submissions to the teaching cases track may address
any aspect of information systems, although managerial issues in IS comprise
the most common domain. The defining characteristics of a good quality IS
teaching case are that it describes an interesting, challenging
IS issue, or set of issues, based on a real organizational setting,
featuring real individuals (which could be camouflaged). Case studies
that are based on firsthand accounts from the author’s own original research
are preferred. However, case studies based on a large number of publicly
available sources such as newspapers, journals, and web sites (including the
company’s web site) will also be considered, especially if these sources
provide some relevant quotations, include some recent references, and allow
for enough detailed description for a useful learning experience.
Submissions should include
two distinct components:
-
the teaching case
-
the teaching note with
accompanying case analysis
The teaching case should
present one or more clear management challenges or decisions to be made so
that students can be asked: “what would you do in this situation?” It should
be limited to a description of the case situation, organizational
background, case issues, and so forth. The case should not include
your analysis; these types of comments should be included in the teaching
note.
The teaching note should
address the management challenges in the case, drawing on whatever
literature, analytical tools, and methods you think appropriate. The note
should also include other information that might be useful to someone using
the case in a classroom context, e.g., potential usage in undergrad or
graduate courses, assignment questions, useful web sites, and—when
possible—a brief indication (“epilogue”) of what actually happened regarding
the issues raised in the case itself.
Authors of accepted
teaching cases will be invited to have their submissions published in a
special issue of the Journal of Information Technology. Also, the
Communications of the AIS frequently publishes good-quality teaching cases
and authors of accepted cases may wish to submit their case study to CAIS
for consideration.
