-- COURSE'S CONTRIBUTION TO PROGRAM

NO	PROGRAM LEARNING OUTCOMES	1	2	3	4	5
1	in-depth study of one context (or of a range of contexts) relevant to the field of Information Systems (IS) and understanding of the field of IS					X
2	through the project you will develop a critical awareness of current problems and/or new insights, much of which is at, or informed by, the forefront of practice in IS					X
3	analyse information systems in a variety of contexts (social, organisational) using a range of appropriate approaches and methodologies			X
4	understand and integrate concepts from a range of academic disciplines contributing to IS (including, but not limited to, IS strategy, organisation behaviour and systems thinking) and context domains	X
5	critically evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of Information Systems methodologies and to be able to predict aspects that are likely to lead to failure					X
6	formulate and test arguments, identify weaknesses and counter arguments. Critically evaluate and reflect upon own work					X
7	articulate and demonstrate use of methods and concepts in practice					X
8	demonstrate the ability think and work originally, to be able to exercise own judgement about the value of information					X
9	develop solutions to problems and compare options					X
10	work independently, reflecting on your own actions and thoughts, and making effective use of constructive feedback, plan and schedule work					X
11	develop solutions to problems and compare options					X
12	solve problems by identifying and analysing issues to determine the optimal practical solutions to improve IS performance					X
13	communicate effectively using written and graphical presentations as appropriate, producing detailed critiques and coherent project reports				X
14	seek relevant information from appropriate sources					X
15	work independently, reflecting on your own actions and thoughts, and making effective use of constructive feedback, plan and schedule work					X
16	reflect on your own practice and evaluate practice within the field of IS from a sociotechnical perspective					X
17	Apply professional values and ethics relative to information systems					X
