HI6035 IT Governance and Risk - Holmes Institute
Activity 1
We have a number of class facilitation activities this week
Students should check the class facilitation schedule and be prepared to facilitate a discussion activity based on their assigned paper. The students facilitating the discussion should take approx 10-15 minutes in giving a synopsis of the paper then lead a discussion of the class on questions arising from the paper.
Students will be graded on their synopsis of the paper and their ability to lead the discussion. Additionally students in the class will be graded over the facilitation weeks 2-10 on their participation I the facilitation process and their responses or questions to the facilitators questions. The grade for the participation component will not be available until all the facilitation sessions are complete towards the end of the semester.
Discussion Topics
Some further topics for discussion in the tutorial should time permit
Question 1: Drawing on any examples you can, do you think there is a need to strict IT Governance, or should this be kept to an informal set of guidelines.
Question 2: Should IT Governance actually be considered a subset of corporate governance, or do you think it should be a separated and governed entirely by the IT department
Question 3: If we implement best practice IT portfolio management, do you believe we need to consider other aspects of IT Governance, or would that be enough?
Question 4: What do you believe might be some of the enablers and disablers of good IT Governance
