Description

The Journal of Cases on Information Technology (JCIT) publishes comprehensive, real-life teaching cases, empirical and applied research-based case studies, and case studies based on individual, organizational, and societal experiences related to the utilization and management of information technology. Cases published in JCIT deal with a wide variety of organizations such as businesses, government organizations, educational institutions, libraries, non-profit organizations, and so forth. Additionally, cases published in JCIT report not only successful utilization of IT applications, but also failures and mismanagement of IT resources and applications. In addition to full-length cases and articles, JCIT periodically publishes teaching notes on innovative teaching approaches and critical incidents (short cases intended for use in a single class period). As a refereed, international journal, the JCIT provides effective understanding, solutions, and lessons learned in the utilization and management of information systems applications, technology, and resources. The impact of technology in a particular setting is described, analyzed, and synthesized for the objective of offering solutions for successful strategies.

Reviews and Testimonials

I have been associated with JCIT (and its predecessor ACIT) for the past five years as an author, reviewer and, now, associate editor. JCIT provides a rich collection of IT cases on a wide range of IT topics. Over this time I've seen the rigor of the review process, and I'm confident in the quality of the end product. Faculty in the IT discipline can count on JCIT to provide valuable teaching tools for their undergraduate and graduate classes.

– Andrew Borchers, Kettering University, USA

Real-life examples of information technology are the life blood of rich postgraduate work that is challenging, relevant, and interesting for students. The Journal of Cases in Information Technology provides such real life examples and it is being continually updated and added to. The Journal of Cases in Information Technology is an important academic resource which I turn to when setting postgraduate course work.
