Unlike any other MIS text, Business Driven Technology, 8e, 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 contains 19 chapters (organized into five units), 12 business
plug-ins, and 11 technology plug-ins offering you the ultimate flexibility in tailoring content to
the exact needs of your MIS 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.
