Emerging technologies in business intelligence and social media are fueling
a need for innovative curricula in online, traditional and hybrid delivery
formats that meet the industry needs. In keeping with the BA Congress theme
of “Exploring the Analytics Frontier”, we seek pedagogical research
contributions, teaching materials, and pedagogical practices/cases that
address acquisition, application, and continued development of the
knowledge and skills required in the usage of business analytics in the
classroom, with emphasis on business intelligence, social media analytics,
big data analytics, high performance analytics, data science,
visualization, and other emerging analytic technologies.

Contributions could be comprehensive research or research-in-progress in
teaching and learning addressing topics including but not limited to:

- Business Analytics curriculum development with assessment methods
- Pedagogical innovation in Business Analytics
- Organizational case studies (with teaching notes)
- Tutorial exercises (with teaching notes, data sets, software, etc)
- Business analytics software in the classroom
