Hello everyone,
I hope you all are doing well. This is Md. Shawon Akhter. I did MIS207 (E-Business) with our honorable faculty and one of the best faculties of the Department of Management Mr Adeyl Khan, in the semester Spring-2020. Since the course is all about E-Business and E-Commerce it will help you to learn and know about the real-life e-business scenario and the processes.
Due to the pandemic of Covid-19 more than half of the semester we had to finish through online and the course-related assessments like lab classes, final assignment as well. The course is a bit complicated but following steps can help you secure a good grade which I did.
- following the guidance of the faculty
- focused on the topics covered
- online research
- help from the book.
The course also refers to real-life practices of E-Business implantation so try to learn about new things about electronic business related to the course that will help you to do well in this course.
I’ll be sharing the things which I did actually throughout the entire semester, which you can reimburse to achieve your desired grade in the course.
At the very first about the Attendance:
I tried to attend all the classes throughout the entire semester. Attend all the classes and also do participate in the classes. Enter the online classes on time and also do follow this if the situation gets well on physical classes. The faculty appreciates this etiquette as well and you might get bonus marks for full attendance and your participation in the classes.
IOAs or Online quizzes:
Attend all the IOAs because it will help you throughout the semester when you’ll be sitting for mid/finals. Because most of the questions of IOAs you’ll get in the exams as well. If you do well in the IOAs there will be a higher possibility that you will be securing a good grade at the end of the semester.
Mid and Final Exam:
Due to the pandemic, we only had the chance of sitting only one mid-exam. But the best part is to try to solve previous exams questions which you’ll get from the website which are provided. In the exams, you’ll have the knowledge to solve the questions if you do so. Also do solve most recent previous exam questions for mid and finals in solve classes, for this, you will get a bonus mark.
About the Classes:
Try to participate in the classes and also do cover all the materials and covered topics in the slide. Also, take help from the book and focus on clearing the concepts except memorizing it. Because it’s a course about the real-life implementation of E-Business. Also, take help from Google if you want to gather deep knowledge about any of the concepts. The faculty will also help you if you have any kind of confusion about the topics in class. There is also office hours if you need any kind of help regarding the course.
Focused on Online classes
Don’t panic because of the situation. We all know it’s a tough time. Study the class materials on a regular basis. The thing I did was I studied very precisely, took help from the book and also checked some topics in Google for a thorough knowledge. To cope up with the other course loads the thing I did that finished my class works regularly which I did for other courses. Because of the online classes we have to be more concentrated and focused in every class and take necessary notes for home study and that will help to be very focused in classes.
GA and Term Project:
Do GAs very sincerely because it carries importance regarding your mid exams. GAs and term projects will be real-life based so you have to be very precise about what the actual topic is. Also, choose your group member in a wisely. Group members are very important for these particular assessments. Put the necessary elements in the assignments and term project. Try to take part in all the bonus presentations. There will be an entire class-session for clearing the ideas about the assessments. Use the office hours if you need any kind of help about the project or assignment. Try to solve every GAs because every single mark matters and you’ll be adding some marks which will reflect in your grade.
Lab Classes:
I did one physical lab class and one online lab class online and it was an excellent experience to attend an online lab class which was effective. Try to attend all the lab classes and submit the feedback on due time. If you get the chance to attend any physical lab class bring your laptop with you and solve the problem on it and for this, you might get a bonus mark as well.
Final Assignment:
For the first time, we all got very tense about the final assignment because it’s the first time it’s conducted online. Don’t panic because the questions will be based on what you covered in slides. Don’t plagiarize anything to solve it with your own words and give enough effort to make it precise. Take help from the book as well as the slides.
Try to get every single bonus mark because it helps a lot. Try to get help from the CRs, mine was very helpful. Follow the instructions. Wish you the best of luck. If you need any kind of advice and help, I would like very much to help you study for the course and feel free to contact me on Facebook
