AIS World subscribers:
I am extraordinarily pleased to announce that CAIS has begun
publishing to our AIS Digital Library papers accepted for our
Special Section: COVID-19, Learning, Pedagogy, and Educational
Systems. Thank you to the special section co-editors, Craig Van
Slyke, Heikki Topi, and Mary Granger.
We will be adding papers as soon as they are completely through
the editing processes. We have already published the first 5
papers and have more scheduled. Eventually we will have
approximately 33 papers on topics ranging from adjusting to
distance teaching of particular courses, particular IS content
such as programming, working with teams, tactical issues such as
creating engagement, and global access issues such as making sure
all students have the technology to connect with the teaching
content. The special section will conclude with an editorial
discussing overall themes, remaining challenges, and acknowledging
the hard work that went into preparing this special section in
just a bit more than half a year.
We believe that almost everyone teaching in the IS field from
those who never taught outside the face-to-face setting to those
entirely teaching remotely have learned lessons with the dramatic
shift necessitated by the Covid 19 pandemic to fully computer
mediated education. Our thinking is that we each learned lessons,
but not the same ones. By recording and sharing our individual
lessons learned (and sometimes things we learned to avoid) it is
our hope that we can profit collectively from our own and each
other’s new knowledge to accelerate our ability to integrate all
manner of communication forms into our emergent stronger, better,
and more effective teaching, curricula, and systems.
Please note this special section is in addition to our on-going
interest in receiving submitted IS educational papers and teaching
cases.
Best,
Fred Niederman, editor in Chief CAIS
