<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-US>Sponsored by the
Association of Information Systems (AIS), the Pacific Asia Conference on
Information Systems (PACIS) is the premier annual information systems (IS)
conference in the region. It serves to provide a platform to researchers and
practitioners to share their research findings and practices in the field of
information systems and management.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-US>The theme of
PACIS 2012 is “IS Innovation in Pacific Asia” and Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam was
chosen to host the conference. In recent decades, this region has undergone
remarkable economic progress and rapid development. Amidst the dynamism of
growing change and transformation, organizations and the society at large face
unique challenges as a result of the diverse economic, political, and
sociocultural contexts in this part of the world. Their development experience,
therefore, has stood out as an extraordinary example of how information systems
and technology are being leveraged in generating new
solutions.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-US>Meanwhile, as we
deliberate on the impacts of such a diverse and dynamic context on the unique
application of IS, we should consider deeply the effects of IS innovation on the
environment. In other words, it represents an opportunity for the IS researchers
and practitioners to think about how information and communication technologies
can contribute to the advancement of the social, cultural and economic
well-being of our region.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-US>One of the
general challenges in today’s teaching and learning environment is identifying
ways to create meaningful and engaging learning experiences that go beyond a
traditional lecture.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-US>The
discovery-learning paradigm has a potential to address this challenge by
encouraging students to be active participants in their learning experience. In
this paper, we report on our exploratory study of the use of digital
storytelling to support discovery learning in an introductory information system
(IS) course. Digital storytelling, in contrast to the traditional lecture
format, encourages students to use computer-aided mixed media such as audio,
video and images to construct and convey knowledge around a topic in the form of
a story. The aim of the digital storytelling project was to encourage students
to take ownership in their learning process by giving them the opportunity to
design, create and present their own class materials. We discuss our findings on
how digital storytelling facilitates learning of complex IS concepts. The
results suggest that a careful pedagogical design around story planning, digital
story production and reflection are important to achieve positive learning
experience of students.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-US>This research
focuses on disaster recovery, as a prime example of such a complex
cross-organisational environment. Even though every disaster is unique, when
considered from the process perspective, disaster recovery could be seen as a
set of operational processes – some of which are highly structured and
predefined, while the others are knowledge-intensive. i.e. highly emergent,
ad-hoc processes that need to be designed in-situ and managed as they evolve.

and disaster recovery (DR) research communities this paper reports on the
existing research on the management of DR processes. The literature was analysed
through a theoretical lens combining two existing frameworks previously
developed and used by the BPM community. Our research provides insights into the
main characteristics of DR processes and the existing research gaps found across
BPM and DR. These insights were used to identify relevant theories that could be
used by information systems researchers to study different aspects of DR
processes, in particular: (i) sharing and co-creation of process-related
knowledge among very diverse process participants; (ii) management of data and
information flows across different types of organizations (business,
governmental and community/NGOs); (iii) flexible coordination mechanisms, and
(iv) provision of more flexible IS support for these emerging
knowledge-intensive processes.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

<P class=MsoNormal style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt"><SPAN lang=EN-US>Organizational
fit is an important project success factor; however, its importance and
relationships with key project management (PM) factors in large-scale software
projects have not been thoroughly investigated. The purpose of this paper is to
investigate of the direct effect of organizational fit factor on ERP project
success, and the moderating effect of organizational adaptation and PM factors
on the relationship between organizational fit and ERP success. A total of 69
enterprises in Taiwan were surveyed. The collected data were analyzed using the
regression analysis. The data analysis results indicate that organizational fit
has a direct and positive influence on ERP project success. Depends on project
success measures (cost, time, performance, and benefit) to achieve, organization
adaptation factors (i.e. system and business process adaptation) and key PM
factors (i.e. teamwork, top management support, end-user training, and vendor’s
advising capability)play strong moderating roles in the relationship between
organizational fit and ERP success. These findings lead to academic and
practical implications on improving ERP project success via managing these key
factors.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
