Week 7 - Review and Midterm


We have completed the first half of the course. The focus has been on IT and technology adoption from a strategic data analytics standpoint. During the lecture this week and in preparation for the midterm, we will use the case of Harrah’s as a foundation for reviewing material we have covered since the beginning of the term.


There is no seminar in Week 7. In lieu of the seminar, I will hold extra office hours.
Topics and Readings for Midterm
Theory: chapter 1-4, the Whirlpool case study, material posted on Learn, and topics presented in lectures
Seminar: Appendices to chapters 1-4, material posted on Learn, and topics discussed in seminars.
