Abstract
2024 College of Senior Scholars' Forum.
This session will propose that future studies should be included more prominently as a portion of the accumulated knowledge in the information systems discipline. It will also acknowledge some of the barriers that keep this from becoming implemented. As part of this discussion, we will inform in detail regarding how future studies are relevant to information systems and provide pointers to the methodologies, journals, and some well-known contributors to the futures studies discipline. Whether or not session participants are persuaded of the value of future studies or its appropriateness as a reference discipline for IS, we plan to increase awareness of its potential.
