Track: IS in Education, IS Curriculum, Education and Teaching Cases (SIGED) Mini-track: Ethical and Social issues in the IS Curriculum

Submission: https://amcis2023.aisconferences.org/track-descriptions/#toggle-id-20

DESCRIPTION:

In today's business world, students are concerned about environmental, social, and governance issues that affect society. The heightened awareness about climate change, gender equality, diversity, equity, inclusion, and social justice influences their lives and choices. In the same way that corporations are expected to produce high-quality products, observe professional and industry standards, promote corporate interests in a way that is professional and observant of societal norms, and exhibit good public policy values, business school faculty are expected to excel in their teaching and research to impact society positively. They are also expected to graduate students who exhibit professionalism and who are conscious of their role in society. The 2020 AACSB standard nine explicitly states that through their activities, schools have the opportunity to make a difference in society and to address significant issues on a local, national, or international scale. The IS curriculum must therefore prepare students to engage in ethical and socially responsible learning in an increasingly globalized world. This mini-track will address ethical and social issues in the IS curriculum and recommend ways to incorporate them in teaching taking place inside and outside the classroom and in research.

Potential topics for this mini-track include, but are not limited to:

· Including and incorporating ethics and ethical issues in the IS curriculum

· The influence of culturally responsive teaching on student engagement, learning outcomes, and student retention
