Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

1)Moore's Law was created by Gordon Moore, the co-founder of Intel Corporation. Moore's Law states that the speed of a computer doubles every 18 months. Because of Moore's Law, the ratio of price to computer performance has fallen and the cost of storage, data processing, and communication have dropped to nearly zero and any routine skill can be outsourced to the lowest bidder.

2)The text defined job security as a "marketable skill and the courage to use it". To attain job security, business professionals should develop their non-routine cognitive skills such as collaboration, the ability to experiment, systems thinking, and abstract reasoning. This course in introductory MIS requires students to learn these four keys skills because every topic will require us to apply and practice these skills.

3)1. Course gives students necessary background to assess, evaluate, and apply emerging information technology to business

2. Course leads the path to job security by educating students in marketable skills

3. Numerous MIS jobs are available
