Do I Matter?: The Impact Of Individual Differences On Training Process, Saurabh Gupta, Robert Bostrom, Robert Anson
Do I Matter?: The Impact Of Individual Differences On Training Process, Saurabh Gupta, Robert Bostrom, Robert Anson
Saurabh Gupta
The increasing investment in technology for training and learning in organizations underscores the fundamental importance for researchers to understand and investigate technology-mediated learning (TML). Currently, a great deal of Information Systems (IS) training for both IS professionals and end-users has a TML component. With the continuing growth of TML and advances in information technology, there will be a likely increate in TML-based IS training in the future. Advances in technology have created opportunities to deliver mass training as well as to personalize learning. To facilitate understanding in this area, this research analyzes the impact of individual differences on end-user training …

End User Training: What We Know, Need To Know, Saurabh Gupta, Robert Bostrom, Mark Huber
Saurabh Gupta
End-User Training (EUT) has enjoyed a rich tradition of research in Information Systems. However, with the growing pace of change in technology and the dynamic nature of business, organizations are spending an increasing amount of money on end-user training. Training methods are also changing with little research to support new approaches. Thus, extensive research is required in the future. To be credible, end-user training research should preserve and build upon the significant literature that exists, both in IS and Education. This paper provides a review of EUT literature focusing on training methods. It summarizes research findings, while pointing out key …

Detailed Online Quizzes: Facilitating Holistic, Integrated Learning Experience In Operations Management, Rahul Kale, Saurabh Gupta, Paul Fadil
Detailed Online Quizzes: Facilitating Holistic, Integrated Learning Experience In Operations Management, Rahul Kale, Saurabh Gupta, Paul Fadil
Saurabh Gupta
Curriculum research in business schools points out that operations management (OM) is one of the more challenging courses to teach. Instructors have always struggled to enhance the student learning experience in OM courses. This article illustrates the development and utilisation of detailed online quizzes in a core OM undergraduate course and demonstrates its potential to achieve higher levels of student learning by mapping the quiz questions to the Bloom's taxonomy. The authors' argue that such quizzes lead to enhanced student performance and a more fulfilling course experience. To substantiate this position, the results of a quasi-experiment which test student perceptions …
The Influence Of Culture And Demography On Classroom Participation: Integrating Technology Into The Pedagogical Paradigm, Saurabh Gupta, Paul Fadil, Rahul Kale
The Influence Of Culture And Demography On Classroom Participation: Integrating Technology Into The Pedagogical Paradigm, Saurabh Gupta, Paul Fadil, Rahul Kale
Saurabh Gupta
This paper explores how technology can overcome the negative influences of cultural and demographical differences on classroom participation. The authors propose a theoretically-based, pedagogical paradigm which illustrates how barriers erected by cultural and demographic differences in the classroom can be overcome by utilizing advanced information technology. Finally the influences of classroom participation on various learning objectives are reviewed, propositions are derived from the model, and future research directions are discussed.
A Meta-Theory For Understanding Systems Within Socio-Technical Systems, Robert Bostrom, Saurabh Gupta, Dominic Thomas
A Meta-Theory For Understanding Systems Within Socio-Technical Systems, Robert Bostrom, Saurabh Gupta, Dominic Thomas
Saurabh Gupta
Information systems (IS) research often attempts to examine and explain how technology leads to outcomes through usage of IS. Although extensive research in this area has resulted in a significant number of theories, limited work has been done on integrating these theories. This paper presents adaptive structuration theory (AST) as a meta-theory for examining IS within an organizational context. The two main contributions of the paper are an understanding of meta-theory’s role in IS and building a case for using AST as a meta-theory to (1) provide an overarching perspective for understanding and integrating existing literature and theories, (2) provide …

A Meta Theory For Understanding Is In Socio-Technical Systems, Dominic Thomas, Saurabh Gupta, Robert Bostrom
Saurabh Gupta
Information systems (IS) research often attempts to examine and explain how technology leads to outcomes through usage of information technology (IT). Although extensive research in this area has resulted in a significant number of theories, limited work has been done on integrating these theories. This paper presents adaptive structuration theory (AST) as a meta-theory for examining IS within a socio-technical systems (STS) context. Two main contributions are: 1) an understanding of meta-theory and how it fits with other meta-studies and 2) applying AST as a meta-theory to: A) achieve deeper domain understanding, B) provide an overarching perspective for reviewing literature …

Examining The Influence Of Strategic Online Content Delivery, Paul Fadil, Saurabh Gupta, Rahul Kale
Saurabh Gupta
This article describes the development and strategic application of online quizzes to enhance student performance and overall course experience. Although research has increased in the field of technological delivery of educational content, there is yet a dearth of studies when compared to the quantity of activity in practice. The experimental situation that this study presents is generalizable to any regional, public business school with no major in operations management. These schools tend to use operations management as an integral part of its core curriculum. Students are required to take only one required operations course in their program; thus, it becomes …

As organizations struggle with how to develop and use their inherent expertise, the importance of knowledge management and collaboration has grown in both academic and practitioner communities. This paper outlines a new concept of collaborative knowledge management (CKM), which bridges the two fields. Drawing from literature, we present a conceptual framework for understanding the concepts underlying CKM. Next, this paper explores how a new technology, peer-to-peer (P2P), fits in the CKM paradigm. A discussion on P2P tools and a comparison of these tools with client server tools for enabling the CKM process is presented. P2P has great appeal for CKM …

Theoretical Model For Investigating The Impact Of Knowledge Portals On Different Levels Of Knowledge Processing, Saurabh Gupta, Robert Bostrom
Theoretical Model For Investigating The Impact Of Knowledge Portals On Different Levels Of Knowledge Processing, Saurabh Gupta, Robert Bostrom
Saurabh Gupta
Much of the research in the area of Knowledge Management (KM) has been at the individual level. However, KM literature argues for knowledge processing capacity at an organisational level to enhance organisational performance. This paper argues that there are additional levels of knowledge processing that need to be studied such as teams and communities of practice. The paper presents a theoretical model for investigating the impact of knowledge systems on different levels of and inter-level knowledge processing. Knowledge portals are used as an example of a KM system that facilitates knowledge flows. A framework for classification of portals is presented. …

The importance of knowledge management ( K M ) has been developed in both academic and practitioner literatures. Organizations are currently searching for best practices and technologies for implementing KM. Thispaper looks a t a new technology, Peer-to-Peer ( P 2 P ) computing, and explores how itfits in the knowledge management paradigm. The paper explores the kinds of P2P applications that exist, identifying those most relevant to KM. The paper then focuses on collaboration applications, comparing P2P tools with client server tools by mapping tool usefulness in t e r n of KMp r o c e s s …
