Tiivistelmä
Digitalization changes the world. Information systems, software applications and other
technologies are in a central role in this change. They enable new work practices and
processes, new business models and opportunities, initiate changes in how technologies are used, perceived and interpreted, and ultimately force individuals, organizations, and even societies at large to respond to those changes. Individuals, organizations, and societies have to somehow transform and adjust their old ways of doing things.
These views pose several questions for information systems and information management research. The Global Information Systems Management-course (TLO-35306) was arranged for the third time in Tampere University in Spring 2019. The students of the course were dealing specifically with these aforementioned issues that were framed as Smart Transformation. This document contains the group exercises of the course. The course theme for this year is specifically aligned with the 42nd Information Systems Research Seminar (IRIS 2019) in Scandinavia and the 10th Scandinavian Conference on Information Systems (SCIS 2019).
Each group collaborated on finding a common topic of interest. They focused on the
adoption and/or use of a particular emerging technology in a setting of their own choosing.
As you are about to see, the findings of each group emphasize different perspectives.
These range from the negative effects of technology use to the opportunities and delights of information systems.
