As more Information Technology systems exploit the Internet with existing web services, it is important for IS graduate students to be able to understand the development of web-based applications. The latest IS model curriculum for graduate information systems emphasizes the utilization of XML and web services as part of the IS Technology core. This paper describes a graduate course which teaches students how to create “mashups”. Mashups are web applications developed by using two or more existing applications or services. Well known companies such as Google, Yahoo, Amazon.com, EBay and others provide services to developers which are used with application specific Application Programming Interfaces (API). This paper gives a brief overview of mashups and an example of how one is created.
