The comprehensive content on the unit's Moodle page evidently shows that this unit had been taught in Monash Universities for a long period of time. The past and current lecturers' dedication have all made this a very informative unit. The extensive content is also accompanied by various additions of web technologies, giving the unit a new and unique experience for learning. I found the Twitter live feed an excellent idea coupled with the weekly pod casts.
Week 1 lecture took a rudimentary grasp in the shoes of a systems analyst. The lecture emphasizes on possible career paths of a systems analyst as well as the importance of information systems. I now know that the role of a systems analyst functions as the middleman, assessing needs of customers and translating them into an IT project.
Week 1 tutorial gave me an insight on how analysis can be done hands on. I joined up with another student to form a group of two. We were told to analyse the water supply system in great detail and provide any substantial facts to be presented later. Such activities hinted me the life of a systems analyst; gather business requirements, work with team members to achieve a common goal and being able to see sub-components from a big-picture.
