Track Description

IS education and curriculum has evolved over time as new technologies and processes (e.g., learning management systems, flipped classrooms, hybrid/blended classes, and more) have changed the way we teach. Today, emerging technologies and trends open up even more pedagogical opportunities in relation to the digital learning environment. Current topics such as analytics, cloud computing, mobility, and IoT offer the opportunity to not only change what we teach, but how we teach. The success of our field is heavily dependent on success in our classroom, as it is largely through education our relevance and scientific discoveries find their ways into organizations as our students graduate. Therefore, it is imperative we meet the challenge to explore, understand, and improve the digital learning environment and the future of IS curriculum and education.

The Digital Learning Environment and Future IS Curriculum track is intended for high‐quality papers related to information systems education, learning environment, and curriculum.
