Abstract
This study builds on research indicating significant variability among topics covered in the teaching of systems analysis and design, and identifies topics that practitioners consider important. Shannon’s entropy is used to analyse the opinions and measure the agreement or disagreement among survey respondents. The findings indicate agreement regarding which traditional topics are not important and agreement among which object-oriented and structured analysis subtopics are important. The results indicate enough variance to cause concern that IS graduates may not have the knowledge, skills, and abilities desired by their potential employers. This analysis provides a basis for future comparisons.
