This research employs an educational escape room (ER) game for an intervention towards informed decision-making on ICT adoption in SMEs. ER design and implementation are elaborated and consequently tested with SME practitioners, all embedded in an action-design study based on a qualitative research methodology. The result highlights a trade-off between creating immersive game experiences and achieving learning objectives. Still, the outcome implies an impact on players' perception of ICT integrated in the ER. The findings contribute to the emerging field of serious games for learning and shed light on the potential of game-based interventions for SMEs.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FitzScheeg2021, author = {Fitz, Lukas and Scheeg, Jochen}, title = {Propositions towards the Impact of Moral Values in Information System Design on Information System Success Depicted by the DeLone \& McLean Information System Success Model}, series = {Proceedings of the 18th International Conference on e-Business - Volume 1: E-DaM, Lieusaint - Paris, France}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 18th International Conference on e-Business - Volume 1: E-DaM, Lieusaint - Paris, France}, publisher = {SciTePress}, isbn = {978-989-758-527-2}, issn = {2184-772X}, doi = {10.5220/0010626101950206}, pages = {195 -- 206}, year = {2021}, language = {en} } @techreport{ScheegScheegFitz2021, author = {Scheeg, Jochen and Scheeg, Michaela and Fitz, Lukas R.

The digital transformation of businesses has become essential for their survival, and SMEs need to develop digital competencies (DC) to remain competitive in the market. Microlearning (ML), a form of learning that involves small, bite-sized learning modules, has been gaining popularity in recent years as a way to efficiently and effectively develop skills. Through a semi-systematic literature review approach, our study examines prevalent knowledge in the area of ML and DC and discusses interrelations. As a result, we propose a research roadmap consisting of six research questions targeting four dimensions of ML for DC development in SMEs: 1) context, 2) formats, 3) reward system, and 4) complexity level.}, language = {en} } @incollection{FitzScheeg2023, author = {Fitz, Lukas R.

Nowadays, many small businesses participate in digital platform (DP) ecosystems and act as value creators or complementors. Investigating the small business perspective does not have a rich tradition in platform research yet. In response, this paper presents a systematic literature review (SLR) analyzing the thematic points of focus and highlighting new avenues for information systems and small business research. We find that objectives related to digital transformation, digital strategy- and business model-development, and DP adoption are fundamental topics in the conjunction of small business and DP ecosystems. Based on the findings, an agenda for future research is developed, including propositions for practice-oriented and human-centered approaches fostering sustilience, innovation capabilities and digital leadership competencies in small businesses facing DP ecosystem participation.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{FitzScheeg2023, author = {Fitz, Lukas R.

An Ontological Discussion of Digitality}, series = {Konferenz: 29th Americas Conference on Information Systems}, booktitle = {Konferenz: 29th Americas Conference on Information Systems}, publisher = {Panama City, Panama}, year = {2023}, abstract = {"Digital" is a popular adjective for concepts related to electronic, computerized or networked processes in current research and practice. From an ontological-theoretical perspective, the prevalence of digital things triggers the question, how Digitality itself could be conceptualized. This article studies the ontology of Digitality and consequently discusses Digital Innovation (DI) from a new perspective. First, literature on Digitality is analyzed. Based on the findings, an ontological conceptual framework of Digitality (OCFD) is proposed. It describes four layers of Digitality: physical foundations, virtuality, digital culture and world, and digital metaphysics. From a human perspective, requirements to grasp and embody Digitality are highlighted, as well as the expansion of reality. Finally, Digitality is discussed as a paradigm of DI and exemplary digital phenomena are projected onto the OCFD. This paper contributes to DI research and practice through theory-building towards a better understanding of ontological characteristics and practical implications of Digitality in DI.}, language = {en} } @article{FitzScheegScheeg2022, author = {Fitz, Lukas R.
