摘要:This paper describes the results of a study designed to assess the practical relevance of learning
objectives for a course that corresponds to the IS 2002.4 recommended guidelines for an information
technology hardware and systems software course. This study represents the first step in
identifying the baseline technical knowledge that IS majors should possess upon entering practice.
The survey reveals a general consensus among survey participants, consisting of experienced
IT academics and practitioners, that learning objectives associated with systems thinking, systems
administration functions, and information assurance practices are useful. However, the survey
revealed that study participants had notably different perceptions concerning the value of learning
objectives associated with achieving a deeper understanding of technical concepts concerning the
design and functioning of hardware and systems software. The identification of these systematically
differing perceptions among IT professionals is provocative and warrants further investigation.
