His current research and teaching interests focus in two areas: advanced learning technologies—with an emphasis on mobile learning systems, and knowledge management—with an emphasis on knowledge sharing. He is a consistent contributor to both the information systems and educational technology literature, publishing both in highly respected journals (Computers and Education, Informing Science Journal) and at conferences (Hawaii International Conference on Systems Sciences, Frontiers in Education). Prior to joining the GSCIS faculty in 1999, Ellis was chair of the business department at Fisher College in Boston, Massachusetts, where he was instrumental in inaugurating that department and in initiating the college’s online learning program.
