An experiment in MIS instruction

Abstract

What would you do if an instructor were to walk into your class and say this semester is yours do with it as you please? That is, in essence what Dr. T. L. Honeycutt of N. C. State University did with his Management Informations Systems class last fall, and this paper explains what we did. We decided to form a Computer Services group and this paper explains the organization that we used, the problems we encountered, and how we coped with these problems. It also evaluates the successes and failures of the experiment, and the benefits by all people involved.
