Learning takeaways on MIS Key Concepts

Share what you have learned from Module 1.

In this session I remembered some of the things taught by

our professor last sem and I gained even more knowledge
about it. I also learned how to apply it to situations and
how it compares to our lives. There are also some words
that I have only just heard and know what they really mean.
I learned that management information system is a
discipline which focuses on the management of information
and communications technology elements within business
organizations. As an MIS student, you can expect to gain an
understanding of computer databases, networks, computer
security, but also learn how to help people better use
technology. I also learned that MIS provides information
about internal operations to managers for decision making,
planning, and analysis. The system helps to compare this
data to facilitate decision-making and answer questions.
TPS, on the other hand, performs routine operations for
supervisory executives which include storing, retrieving,
possessing, creating and formatting data. The users of TPS
come on the lowermost level in the management hierarchy
while the users of MIS are the mid-level managers.
