amazing

The product was exactly what I expected it came quickly and i am very ahppy with my purchase.

In depth knowledge of MIS

This book is an asset. Even after finishing my course, I haven't sold it back. I know I am going to use it for reference later on. Easy language, various examples and online study guide. All are helpful in becoming an excellent Operations Manager.

Very easy to read.

I like that I can read this easily and quickly. Language is simple and straightforward.

Best web support

I wish all my books were from McGraw Hill - the support is awesome! A full glossary online and sample tests and key study points all ready to copy and paste into your own study notes!!! Really wonderful company.

Management Information Systems for the Information Age

I have used (and continue to use) this text for a college class on MIS. It's among the best textbooks I've ever come across. The book is filled with real world stories of real companies and how they have improved their competitive positions using IT. It also contains numerous 15-25 minute group activities and "On Your Own" assignments. Each chapter ends with a list of Key Terms, as well as several short answer and discussion questions.Finally, and what I like most about the text, is a section on "Real HOT Group Projects." Many of these require creation of database reports or spread sheet pivot tables. So, you may find yourself diverting some time to teaching spreadsheet and database skills. But how can you teach the application of technology to managing and creating information, without actually using technology to do just that?
