The capital, San Salvador at sunset
Impacts of National Information Technology class
This course is a second year MBA class taught as part of the Management of Global Information Technology (MoGIT) curriculum of the Kogod School of Business at American University in Washington, D.C. The course is designed for students to gain the ability to conduct a national IT assessment for a nation and analyze implications for the globally competing firm.
At the class inception we were asked to choose a country
with personal connections because of the significant amount of research
required for the website. The country of El Salvador was chosen because
of my mother's decendancy. I have also had to the opportunity to
visit the country most recently in the summer of 1998. This brief
exposure provided added value in determining the validity of information
found on the Internet to construct this website.
Other Websites Constructed by the Author
As part of a core first year MBA class called Management
Information Systems (MIS), students are required to create a fictitious
store on the web. My concept was a running store with physical stores
in the Washington, D.C. area and it was creatively called D.C. Running
Company. Here is a link to the website DC
Running Company Storefront. I hope you enjoy it!
