4.0 out of 5 stars
directed towards supervisors,
By
This review is from: Research in Information Systems: A handbook for research supervisors and their students (Hardcover)
Despite the title, the book is more directed towards supervisors rather than their students. The author was motivated by the realisation that simply finishing a PhD was insufficient in itself to qualify that person as a good supervisor. There are issues in being the latter that simply don't arise when you were a graduate student. Avison offers this book to bridge the gap.
Over half the book concerns matters than could arise in any research field, not just information systems. For example, any cultural differences between the supervisor and student. Or perhaps gender issues? This is fraught with difficulties and perils for both sides. Later in the book is a discussion of items specific to information systems. This section actually seems the less useful to me. |
