Management Information Systems for the Information Age February 19, 2001 Robert T. Pitlak (Poultney, VT USA) 16 out of 18 found this review helpful
I have used (and continue to use) this text for a college class on MIS. It's among the best textbooks I've ever come across. The book is filled with real world stories of real companies and how they have improved their competitive positions using IT. It also contains numerous 15-25 minute group activities and "On Your Own" assignments. Each chapter ends with a list of Key Terms, as well as several short answer and discussion questions.Finally, and what I like most about the text, is a section on "Real HOT Group Projects." Many of these require creation of database reports or spread sheet pivot tables. So, you may find yourself diverting some time to teaching spreadsheet and database skills. But how can you teach the application of technology to managing and creating information, without actually using technology to do just that?

This book is an asset. Even after finishing my course, I haven't sold it back. I know I am going to use it for reference later on.
Easy language, various examples and online study guide. All are helpful in becoming an excellent Operations Manager.
