Hello there!
This is K. M. Shaerul Abedin.
I had the luckiest opportunity to do Computer Information System (MIS107) with Mr. Adeyl Khan during the spring'20 semester. I said lucky because my background is different, as I am training to be a biochemist and information systems is something which is not a very familiar topic for me. But under our faculty's guidance, I learned some amazing facts about how modern day business operates in the real world.
I won't write about how you should study - this is something which is completely in your comfort zone. Here, I will try my best to provide you with some tips and tricks that can fuel your study approach.
First things first, bonuses! Yes, the course offers a hefty amount of opportunities. and it's simple actually. I won’t say what those are, you have to listen carefully to grab those extra juice!
Next up, online quizzes or IOAs. Half of the midterm marks straight up comes from those online quizzes. Please please please do not miss it.
Then, midterms. Will you believe it if i say it is the easiest part of the course? Just solve the old midterm questions which are already provided in the website, and see for yourself!
And then there is lab work and group assignments. Some of them are optional (which screams for bonus!) fun, right? Pro tip: please be serious with your graded group work.
Lastly, attending all the classes will bring you a nice and easy bonus of 3 marks. Rejoice!
The study part is all you, but these tips will definitely boost your course work. If you are looking for an A, then I don't need to tell you the importance of reading the book! search google and you will find free pdf. Also, do not feel hesitant to search any information through google, it helped me a lot to strengthen my understanding.
Now I must tell you, the last half of my MIS107 journey was pretty bumpy because of covid-19 situation and all. The online classes were not initially very familiar but we got a hold of it. There were class recordings which helped me a lot, especially in online lab sessions. Our final assessment was a written assignment, but it will not matter if you sit for your assessment physically or virtually, as long as your answer is precise and to the point.
I had a fun and amazing ride with our faculty Mr. Adeyl Khan in this course. I hope you feel the same! Wish you all the very best!!
