bassam summary 2Summary Report for Module 2
Once again you can assume i am your boss and I have asked you to research the topics in Module 2 and report back to me with what you have found. I expect your paper to be 7 – 10 pages including the references page. After reading your paper I should have a good idea of the topical areas. Enough so that I will not look like a fool at my upcoming meeting in two weeks.
Your paper should have two main sections (please label the sections):
* Content – this section is where you present the most important concepts from the readings. Since there are three different areas covered in this modules materials you might want to label your sections:
* Section 1: Data Warehousing
* Section 2: Normal Curve and Simple Regression
* Section 3: Herb Simon
* What I learned — This section should tell me what was new to you. Assuming our backgrounds are similar you can assume what was new to you would be of interest to me, your boss.
Your references page should use APA formatting. It is important that you keep track of the important concepts and the sources for you information. This information will be extremely valuable to you when you are writing your portfolio for the final capstone course.
