Preface * xv
Unlike any other MIS text, Business Driven Technology discusses various business initiatives
first and how technology supports those initiatives second. The premise for this
unique approach is that business initiatives should drive technology choices. Every discussion
in the text first addresses the business needs and then addresses the technology
that supports those needs.
Business Driven Technology offers you the flexibility to customize courses according
to your needs and the needs of your students by covering only essential concepts and
topics in the five core units, while providing additional in-depth coverage in the business
and technology plug-ins.
Business Driven Technology, 6e, contains 20 chapters (organized into five units),
12 business plug-ins, and 12 technology plug-ins offering you the ultimate flexibility in
tailoring content to the exact needs of your MIS or IT course. The unique construction
of this text allows you to cover essential concepts and topics in the five core units while
providing you with the ability to customize a course and explore certain topics in greater
detail with the business and technology plug-ins.
Plug-ins are fully developed modules of text that include student learning outcomes,
case studies, business vignettes, and end-of-chapter material such as key terms, individual
and group questions and projects, and case study exercises.
We realize that instructors today require the ability to cover a blended mix of topics
in their courses. While some instructors like to focus on networks and infrastructure
throughout their course, others choose to focus on ethics and security. Business Driven
Technology was developed to easily adapt to your needs. Each chapter and plug-in is
independent so you can:
? Cover any or all of the chapters as they suit your purpose.
? Cover any or all of the business plug-ins as they suit your purpose.
? Cover any or all of the technology plug-ins as they suit your purpose.
? Cover the plug-ins in any order you wish.
