Instructor's Supplements:

EZ Test CD (ISBN 0073195596): Includes Word version of the Test Bank as well as the EZ Test files and software. To help instructors meet the requirements of AACSB, all questions have been tied to the Learning Outcomes in the text. In addition to the traditional test bank material, a new test bank will offer Excel and Access questions for testing purposes. Each file comes with a Captivate solution file that walks students step-by-step through the solution, which saves instructors valuable time.

Instructor's OLC ( www.mhhe.com/baltzan ): All supplements, save the Test Bank, will be available exclusively on the OLC. This will allow the authors to continually update and add to the instructor support materials. The following materials will be available on the OLC:

•  PowerPoints: BDIS offers two sets of traditional PowerPoint slides – one for instructors and one for students. The instructor edition comes complete with detailed teaching notes on each slide that offers discussion topics, classroom questions, and instructor points.

•  Additional Material PowerPoints: BDIS also offers PowerPoint slides on additional lecture material. If you want to walk your students through NetFlix' supply chain or Eddie Bauer's customer relationship management there are 10 additional sets of slides focusing on extra material.

•  Classroom Exercises: Choose from over 50 engaging classroom exercises that challenge students to apply the material they are learning. For example, if you are teaching systems development start off the class with the “Skyscraper Activity” where the students build a prototype that takes them through each phase of the systems development life cycle. If you are working on tying information technology to business begin your class with the “Magazine Exercise” where students place Post-It Notes on technology articles in popular business magazines clearly demonstrating that technology is everywhere in business.

•  Multiple Data and Solution Files: For appropriate problems, there are multiple data and solution files allowing instructors to assign the same base problem with different data files.

  •  Captivate Files: A complete set of narrated solution files for all Excel, Access, and Web development projects. These files provide narrated step-by-step detail for each project. These are a great aid to help Instructors quickly understand questions and can be posted for students to review, saving Instructor time with case reviews.

  •  Cohesion Case: The Video Connection is a running case Instructors can use to reinforce core material such as customer relationship management, supply chain management, business intelligence, decision making, and so on. The purpose of the case is to help students tie all of the information together by running their own video store business. The case has 25 separate sections covering core material from the text. Students benefit by receiving hands-on experience in business and learn technology's true value of enabling business.

  •  Videos: New videos will be downloadable from the instructor side of the OLC. Selections from our archive of videos from previous years will be delivered upon request.
