Resources for instructors of data mining courses in b-schools

With the increasing popularity of data mining courses being offered in business schools (at the MBA and undergraduate levels), a growing number of faculty are becoming involved. Instructors come from diverse backgrounds: statistics, information systems, machine learning, management science, marketing, and more.

Since our textbook Data Mining for Business Intelligence has been out, I've received requests from many instructors to share materials, information, and other resources. At last, I have launched BZST Teaching, a forum for instructors teaching data mining in b-schools. The forum is open only to instructors and a host of materials and communication options are available. It is founded on the idea of sharing with the expectation that members will contribute to the pool.

If you are interested in joining, please email me directly.

Student network launched!

I recently launched a forum for the growing population of MBA students who are veterans of our data mining course. The goal of the forum is to foster networking, job-related communications (not too many data mining-savvy MBAs out there!), to share interesting data analytic stories, and to keep in touch (where are you today?).
