The term computer describes a device made up of a combination of electronic and electromechanical components. By itself, a computer has no( )and is referred to as hardware, which means simply the physical equipment. The hardware can&39;t be used until it is connected to other elements, all of which constitute the six parts of a computer-based information system, hardware, software, data/information, people, procedures and communications. A system is defined as a collection of related components that( )to perform a task in order to accomplish a goal. Any organization that uses information technology will have a computer-based information system to provide managers (and various categories of employees) with the appropriate kind of information to help them make decisions. Systems analysis and design is to ascertain how a system works and then take steps to make it ( )Often, a system approach is used to define, describe, and solve a problem or to meet a(an)( ) From time to time, organizations need to( )their information systems, in, response to new marketing&39; opportunities, modified government regulations, the introduction .of new technology, merger with another company, or other developments. When change is needed, the time is ripe for applying the principles of systems analysis and design.

Constructing a model from the five components of an information system is an example of abstract reasoning. AACSB: Information Technology Difficulty: 1: EasyCourse LO: Describe the components of an information system (IS).Learning Obj: LO 1.2: How will MIS affect me?Classification: ConceptWhat is systems thinking?Answer: Systems thinking is the ability to model the components of a system, to connect the inputs and outputs among those components into a sensible whole that reflects the structure and dynamics of the phenomenon observed. It shows how components* inputs and outputs relate to one another.AACSB: Information TechnologyDifficulty: 1: EasyCourse LO: Describe the components of an information system (IS).Learning Obj: LO 1.2: How will MIS affect me?Classification: ConceptWhat is collaboration? How can one ensure effective collaboration?Answer: Collaboration is the activity of two or more people working together to achieve a common goal, result, or work product. It means to develop ideas and plans with others in a team and to provide and receive critical feedback. Effective collaboration is not about being nice. Surveys indicate the single most important skill for effective collaboration is to give and receive critical feedback.AACSB: Information TechnologyDifficulty: 1: EasyCourse LO: Describe the components of an information system (IS).Learning Obj: LO 1.2: How w川 MIS affect me?Classification: ConceptWhat is experimentation? Explain its importance.Answer: Experimentation is making a reasoned analysis of an opportunity, envisioning potential solutions, evaluating those possibilities, and developing the most promising ones, consistent with the resources one has. Fear of failure paralyzes many good people and many good ideas. This can be overcome by having the ability to experiment.AACSB: Information TechnologyDifficulty: 2: ModerateCourse LO: Describe the components of an information system (IS).Learning Obj: LO 1.2: How will MIS affect me?Classification: ConceptDifficulty: 1: EasyCourse LO: Discuss best practices for using and managing databases.Learning Obj: LO 5.1: Why do you need to know about databases?Classification: ConceptThe purpose of a database is to.A) test and troubleshoot newly installed softwaredesign the source code for computer programsB) describe and build computer architecturesstore lists of data involving multiple themesAnswer: DAACSB: Information TechnologyDifficulty: 1: EasyCourse LO: Discuss best practices for using and managing databases.Learning Obj: LO 5.1: Why do you need to know about databases?Classification: Concept3) Google is a database that is used by Facebook and Twitter.Answer: FALSEAACSB: Information TechnologyDifficulty: 1: EasyCourse LO: Discuss best practices for using and managing databases.Learning Obj: LO 5.1: Why do you need to know about databases?Classification: ConceptDatabases are static and it is only the information systems that change.Answer: FALSEAACSB: Information TechnologyDifficulty: 1: EasyCourse LO: Discuss best practices for using and managing databases.Learning Obj: LO 5.1:
