Course Description
At the end of the course, the students should be able to:
1. apprehend the theoretical and practical examination of information system of information
system analysis and design process;
2. explore techniques for accessing the need for technology;
3. define specifications and design process involving users;
4. describe design methods including social impact statements; and
5. discuss the analysis of standard designs and their application/operation in medicine and
information management.
Course Outline
Theoretical and practical examination of information system analysis and design process. Explores
techniques for assessing the need for technology, defining specifications, and involving users in
the design process. Design methods include social impact statements, future scenarios, mock-
ups, rapid prototyping, and field- testing. Analysis of standard designs; complete and incomplete
block designs, Latin square nested, and other crossed classification design. Design efficiency,
factorial experiments, confounding and fractional replication, response surface designs and
evolutionary operation in medicine, information management, applications.
