Broaden View of MIS Research and Disciplinary • 雲科大資管系:方國定
我國研究的隱憂 • 1. 研究的完成,只在於『為研究而研究』; • 2. 研究的歷程不在於解決問題,而只是『玩 弄工具』; • 3. 研究結果只是『研究工作的結束』,並 • 未有『確實的結果』出現。 4. OEM的學術研究 • 5. 無關痛癢
Characteristics of Goods Research 1.Purpose clearly defined 2.Research process detailed 3.Research design thoroughly planned 4.Limitations frankly revealed 5.High ethical standards applied 6.Adequate analysis for decision maker’s needs 7.Findings presented unambiguously 8.Conclusions justified 9.Research’s experience reflected
Research Relevance的要求 • 主題:必須為實務界關心的議題 • Implementable: 研究結果必須為確實可行 • Critical Thinking: 研究結果必須提出前瞻的觀點與創新的典範 • Style and Tone: 報告必須通俗易懂
