Survey Results Readability was rated average by most students No one felt it was unreadable, but survey would suggest that it could have been somewhat easier

Relevance and Length Students mostly agreed that the information in the articles was very relevant and informative However, the last article was too long and involved

Presentation On a whole the class thought the presentation was very informative. Aside from one “know-it-all” to whom it was all apparently “old hat.”

Presentation Most students agreed that the presentation was clear and a good length Interest level was average We blame ERP. It’s no Brittney Spears

Readings The CIO article entitled ABC: An Introduction to ERP (Clever) was rated as the easiest to understand. Not surprisingly, the case study was rated the hardest. All but one of the respondents felt the interactive portion was helpful. We suspect Mr. Know-it-all for this one

General Comments Most people liked the presentation and thought we were well versed Length could have been a bit shorter Final article was too in-depth and lengthy More equal participation by group members.
