Business Process Canvas and its Usage in IS Teaching And Learning : Tutorial

• The tutorial introduces a new type of canvas called Business Process Canvas (BPC), and discusses experience of its usage in an IS course related to Business Process Modeling/Management (BPM). BPC represents a model of a business process in a nutshell that covers the most important aspects of the process, including its place in the organization, resources that it uses, and how it is driven. The canvas could be used in practice for decision making on a higher level when particular details are not important for the decision. It can also be used by process mapping experts for a pre-modeling phase to gather and systematize basic data about the process before diving into details; this could be especially useful for new, less experience process modelers. However, the primary motivation behind the development of BPC was to have a tool that facilitates both the students' understanding of the concepts related to BPM and their learning of how to model a process given a text description, or interviewing people engaged in the process. The tutorial introduces the structure of the canvas, discusses the experience of its usage, and devotes some time for exercises where the participants fill the canvas based on process descriptions.
