1. What do you believe are the two most important skills required by a good Systems Analyst? And Why?

A system analyst is the one who investigates, analyzes,designs, develops, installs, evaluates and maintains a company’s information systems. I think the following are the two most appropriate skills required by a good system analyst are:-

-> A good system anayst should have a clear understanding of thesystem development life cycle and its approach.

-> A good system analyst should have good listening skills and good questioning and interviewing techniques.

A system analyst plays a vital role in system development life cycle. A system analyst shoud be able to translate the business problems and requirements into information requirements and business. A system analyst is responsible for planning projects, developing schedules and estimating costs for these projects so it is neccessary for a system analyst to adopt different methods in constructing the system and also in design and implementation


2. If you were in charge of this course next term ,what changes would you make to improve the course? And why?

If i were in charge of this course next term then i would suggest the following changes
->Audio and video streaming of lectures,through which students can easily grab the required information.

->Reduce the burden of assignments by providing a extra lectures handling assignment issues.

In my opinion streaming is a very popular approach today. With streaming both text and graphic files can be streamed. This will help the students to listen and view the required information whenever they want. As a student i have realised that there is so much burden of assignments. Sometimes students get stressed because of assignments.So it is necessary to give extra classes to explain the various concepts involved in a particular assignment and giving proper feedback to students.This will help student to perform well in assignment and also help in reducing plagiarism and every student would perform their own assigments by their own.
