I was immediately successful in locating a great introductory source. The Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), a professional organization in the IT field, put together what they refer to as Tech Packs as a form of overview for a select group of topics. In the library of Tech Packs I found a Tech Pack for BI. This set of overviews and annotated bibliographies provided a great introduction to the BI field and included many references for further reading. Using this Tech Pack I was able to confirm my understanding of the topics and now feel I have a good solid foundation to begin working with my textbooks to teach the course.
I still have a lot to do to prepare for the course and a lot of learning along the way. Since this is my first iteration with this new course it will be a JIT (just-in-time) design and development over the semester. I'm looking forward to the challenge of the course and the excitement to be learning more about BI.
