Information Technology Project Management, Revised

By: Kathy Schwalbe

Information is traveling faster and being shared by more individuals than ever before. Information Technology Project Management, REVISED Sixth Edition offers the behind-the-scene aspect of technology.

By weaving together theory and practice, this text presents an understandable, integrated view of the many concepts skills, tools, and techniques involved in project management. Because the project management field and the technology industry change rapidly, you cannot assume that what worked even five years ago is still the best approach today.

Information Technology Project Management, REVISED Sixth Edition, is still the only textbook to apply all nine project management knowledge areas: project integration, scope, time, cost, quality, human resource, communications, risk, and procurement management. Also all five process groups: initiating, planning, executing, monitoring and controlling, and closing to information technology projects. MS Project 2010 CD comes with the Revised 6e of Schwalbe.

Developing Grounded Theory

The Second Generation Revisited

By: Janice M. Morse,Barbara J. Bowers,Kathy Charmaz,Adele E. Clarke,Juliet Corbin,Caroline Jane Porr,Phyllis Noerager Stern

Developing Grounded Theory: The Second Generation Revisited is a highly accessible description of the rapid development of grounded theories and the latest developments in grounded theory methods. A succinct overview of the development of grounded theory is provided, including the similarities and differences between Glaserian and Straussian grounded theory. The method introduced by Schatzman, and the development of Charmaz’s constructivist grounded theory and Clarke’s situational analysis, are clearly presented. The book is divided into seven sections: each type of grounded theory is discussed by the developer (or their student), followed by a chapter describing a project that used that particular type of grounded theory. Bookending these chapters is the first chapter, which describes the development and landscape of grounded theory, and a final chapter describing the challenges to the future of grounded theory. This book is ideally suited for beginning students trying to come to grips with the field as well as more advanced researchers attempting to delineate the major types of grounded theory.

Constructing Grounded Theory

A Practical Guide Through Qualitative Analysis

By: Kathy Charmaz

Kathy Charmaz is one of the world's leading theorists and exponents of grounded theory. In this important and essential new textbook, she introduces the reader to the craft of using grounded theory in social research, and provides a clear, step-by-step guide for those new to the field. Using worked examples throughout, this book also maps out an alternative vision of grounded theory put forward by its founding thinkers, Glaser and Strauss. To Charmaz, grounded theory must move on from its positivist origins and must incorporate many of the methods and questions posed by constructivists over the past twenty years to become a more nuanced and reflexive practice.

Netiquette

A Student's Guide to Digital Etiquette

By: Kathy Furgang

There is growing concern over how we behave and interact online, from fighting, incivility, rudeness, and even criminal behaviors like cyberbullying, to simply adapting old forms of etiquette to a new landscape. This book, updated from an earlier resource, provides younger readers an introduction to this timely topic, a subject that they are both engaged in forming themselves as "digital natives," and one they also often require guidance in. It informs readers about the polite and productive use of social media networks and mobile platforms and discusses pressing issues of etiquette within families, among friends, and in educational settings.
