Kompetenzen
- explain the fundamentals of IS research, especially its roots, areas, and topics, and describe the seminal concepts and theories used in IS research
- distinguish between behavorial science and design science (e.g., theory-building and testing vs. IT artifact design and evaluation)
- describe basic research strategies in IS (e.g., qualitative and quantitative/inductive and deductive strategies) and techniques for collecting (e.g., interviews, questionnaires) and analyzing (e.g., coding, statistics) empirical data
- know where to find and access academic outlets that publish IS research, and explain strategies for collecting, evaluating, and synthesizing academic literature in IS
- identify research ideas in the area of IS research and refine them into research problems and questions
- identify relevant theories and concepts used in IS research
- apply appropriate research strategies and methods using different software products (e.g., NVivo)
- conduct systematic literature reviews and apply concept-centric approaches to analyzing and synthesizing the literature
- work in groups, communicate as a team, and help each other in the process of reviewing the course contents and reading and understanding the literature they are provided with
- assess their learning progresses and evaluate their participation in class autonomously
