This document provides an overview of a paper submitted by Edward Knish to fulfill honors requirements at the University of North Carolina Wilmington. The paper explores methods for evaluating the value of information systems from both historical and current perspectives. It first defines key terms like information and information systems. It then reviews qualitative, economic, and financial valuation methods used historically. Current methods like IT option pricing and Tobin's Q are also examined. The goal is to synthesize these approaches into a practical model for practitioners to evaluate individual information systems based on determining scope, requirements, impact levels, and matching costs and benefits. The paper concludes that a single valuation method cannot apply to all systems due to their unique nature, requiring instead a standard evaluation approach tailored for

C. Wright Mills described sociological imagination as the ability to understand how individual experiences are influenced by broader social, political, and economic forces. He argued that sociology should seek to analyze relationships between private troubles faced by individuals and public issues experienced by many in society. As an example, he discussed how unemployment may be perceived as a personal failure, but is actually a reflection of larger problems in the economy and society. Mills believed sociological imagination was needed to move beyond common sense understandings of social problems and consider alternative social and historical explanations.
This document discusses electricity and electrical charges. It explains that electricity is a form of energy used to power devices. Atoms are normally neutral, with equal numbers of protons and electrons, but some objects can gain or lose electrons, becoming positively or negatively charged. Charges can be transferred between objects, but the total charge is conserved according to the law of conservation of charge. Opposite charges attract and like charges repel through the invisible force of electricity.
