97 was the seminal release of the Information Systems Model Curriculum and formed the basis for the IS 2002 revision and for the ABET IS Accreditation Standards. From an analysis of 97, panelists will present the entities that constitute the basic building blocks of a model curriculum including accreditation bodies, employer expectations, and educational standards and practices. Panelists will then present options for relating these building blocks to create a process that will lead to a successful comprehensive model curriculum. After a presentation of the constituent entities and options for relating those entities, the panel will host a discussion and dialog wherein the goal will be to determine what the academic community really needs, beyond minimal implementation details, from Model . The panel will conclude the session by comparing and contrasting the results of the discussion with the goals expressed in the new AITP unified model curricula for IS, IT, and CS. The panel will be seeding considerable audience participation as the details of design for a model curriculum are advanced. The results of this panel discussion will then be used as one of the inputs for the AITP Unified Model Curricula design. In addition, attendees will be given the opportunity to participate in the forthcoming curriculum design process
