by Judy L. Wynekoop, Kazuo Nakatani
International Journal of Teaching and Case Studies (IJTCS), Vol. 1, No. 1/2, 2007

Abstract: In light of the recent discussion on whether Information Systems (IS) as a field should stay focused on its technology core, a survey of IS instructors was done to determine the current and growing emphases of the introductory fundamentals of IS courses.

Purely technological topics are currently seen as the least important and not gaining in importance.
