Doctoral students
Voraussetzungen
Doctoral students are expected to come to each class prepared and ready to participate actively in discussion. This means reading the assigned articles carefully and thinking critically about the ideas and concepts they present. Thorough analysis of the readings will often require multiple readings. You should understand the objectives, theoretical arguments, and logic of each paper in sufficient depth to discuss and critique it thoughtfully during class.
Lernorganisation
Each student will serve as the discussion leader for at least one assigned paper. Your role is to stimulate and facilitate class discussion rather than deliver a lecture. Assume that everyone has read the paper carefully and is prepared to participate. Your objective is to encourage thoughtful discussion and critical analysis of the paper and its implications for Information Systems research.

Please review the papers on pages 4 & 5 in the syllabus and send Dr. Mary Beth Watson-Manheim your top 3 choices by September 22. She will assign your paper for discussion by September 25, so you have time to prepare your presentation.
Leistungsnachweis
A short reflective presentation is due on Thursday, the final day of the seminar. The purpose of this assignment is to encourage you to reflect on the workshop readings in the context of your own research. You will present your reflections to the class and lead the discussion that follows. Your presentation should be approximately 15 minutes, followed by 10 minutes of class discussion and Q&A.

Kommentar/Beschreibung

The objective of this workshop is to help you develop a foundation for conducting research in Information Systems, placing particular interest on the critical role of theory in conducting research. Theories are used to help design a research question, guide the selection of relevant data, interpret the data, and propose explanations of the underlying causes or influences of observed phenomena.
