Tech Alert

Tech Alert on Chapters 3 - 5 relating to IT, Moore's Law, and business strategy: Submit your document in Microsoft Word format. 
Carefully read through the tech alert requirements. Please realize that the notes in the ‘callouts’ on Page 3 of the Homework Assignment Handout are REQUIREMENTS, not suggestions. For this week’s assignment, find one or more articles that relate to the content covered in Chapters 3 - 5 in our text. Read the chapters BEFORE you look for articles and choose one of the following approaches:

  • Summarize recent ‘real-world’ examples that illustrate one of the topics presented in these chapters or find related articles that extend the book’s discussion on IT and strategy, and/or;

  • Discuss or provide examples of some of the key terms shown in the book margins from Chapters 3 - 5.

  • Look at the discussion questions at the end of the chapter sections and find an article or two that helps you answer a question that is posed, or;

  • Follow-up on a specific case study that is presented in the text or find comparable examples. If you choose this option, you must focus on new information about the organization that is not included in the text.

Upload your paper then check the similarity results. Papers will receive a 1% grade reduction for each similarity % above 15%. Example: Paper submitted with a similarity rating of 18% receives a grade of 90. Grade of 90 is reduced 3 points (18-15) for a final grade of 87.

The best way to lower your similarity rating is to add more original content.
