Abstract:

This paper presents the usage of modern teaching methods such as e-learning, gamification, case studies, teamwork and projects on the Management of Information Systems (MIS) course. As the course is held in the 7th semester of the undergraduate program on Zagreb School of Economics and Management (ZSEM), it is necessary to provide interesting and engaging materials and lectures for students that are soon entering the labor market. An important part of the course is covered by student projects which focus on information system (IS) or ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning system) implementation in companies. This aspect of the course develops positive competitive motivation, teamwork and presentational skills. Other examples of engaging elements implemented in this course are gamification, where students learn through playing, and e-learning component for distance learning, very useful for students that are on an exchange program abroad, athletes, students that work, etc. All course elements (project, discussion, cases, gamification, e-learning, etc.) present their own goals and learning outcomes. The aim is to present a course with important engaging elements in today's education sector with a combination of powerful learning methods and tools. The research will focus on the result analysis of the last 4 years of course practice.
