Why Business Majors Should Take Technology CoursesExcella
On Monday, December 9, Excella Partner Doug Sampson spoke to Dr. Katherine Stewart's University of Maryland "Intro to Information Systems" class about why business school students should consider more (rather than fewer) technology classes in their college education.
CSF analysis is a method developed to guide businesses in creating and measuring success. It is widely used for technology and architectural planning in enterprise IT. Critical success factors are those factors which the management of organizations must focus and manage effectively.

Visualizing BI technical cyber risks. Enterprise Risk and SecurityBiZZdesign
Method for business impact analysis of technical risks is explained, which combines the disciplines of technical risk analysis and Enterprise Architecture. Our method is supported by software tooling to (semi-)automatically import results of a penetration test into an Enterprise Architecture model, and to analyze and visualize the business impact of these technical risks. This both enhances the value of penetration testing and increases the return-on-investment of the Enterprise Architecture effort.

The presentation is for the teacher and the student to learn and grow with their projects applying systematic thinking along with methodologies that foster such thinking. I used emerging business technology applications to serve as examples to highlight the extensive preparation that goes along to achieve any successful product. I just focused on the influence of the smart phone, social, mobile, cloud convergence with a few examples from education, daily digital routines and healthcare.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
