Applications of Human-Computer Interaction in Management Information Systems

In this introduction to the second of the two complementary volumes, we provide a general context of applications of HCI research in MIS and then preview all papers in the second volume. This volume represents applications of HCI from the point of view of MIS research. Applications take particular courses that are carved out by researchers; we find that MIS researchers have taken HCI work in the directions of electronic commerce, team collaboration, culture and globalization, user learning and training, user-centered system development, and information technology in health care. Two reflective pieces at the end of this volume provide ample food for thought for researchers in this area
