In this unit, you have learned about management information systems
(MIS) and the importance of it. For this assignment, compose a paper
that discusses the key differences between data, information,
information technology (IT), and information systems (IS). Your paper
should address the components listed below.

Define what is meant by information.
Define what is meant by data.
Create two matrices (one for data and one for information) that
illustrate the key differences between information and data, place the
matrices into your paper, and briefly discuss the differences in one
or two paragraphs. Each matrix should contain characteristics and/or
facts  about the subjects (data and information) that show how they
are different.
Define IT.
Define IS.
Using the five-component model as an example, discuss some differences
between IT and IS.

If you are using Microsoft Word, you can develop a matrix using this
program. For an example of how to create a matrix using Microsoft
Word, see the Microsoft.com explanation by clicking the link below.

You may use another computer software program that you are familiar
with to create the matrices. However, you must submit your assignment
in a Microsoft Word document, and the matrices should be included in
the body of your paper.

Your paper must be a minimum of two pages in length (not counting the
title and reference pages), and you must use at least two resources as
references. Any information from these resources must be cited and
referenced in APA format.
