Description
Summary:Real world information technology projects cut acrossmultiple business domains and processes, involve large amounts of data and anassortment of different technologies. Advancedcourses within an IS programs must include projects that help students gain aholistic view of an enterprise by exposing them to business domains,business processes and technical knowledge and skills that will help them design and deliver enterpriseprojects. In order to guide the instructor to effectively design and implementsuch enterprise project experiences, in this paper, we propose an enterpriseintegrated project environment (EIPE) framework based on business domains andbusiness processes. Additionally, we share our experience in implementing thisframework in the Data Warehousing and Business Analytics course. The analysisof the student feedback for this course demonstrates the benefits of EIPE inenhancing student learning experience. We share the project details andchallenges and discuss our findings and lessons learnt in designing andimplementing EIPE. Thus providing one pathway for Information Systemsprofessors to, design an enterprise integrated project in their courses.
