Mini-Project Assignment #1
Short Report on Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and the Applications
Purpose of the Assignment:
This assignment has a two-fold purpose:
1. To keep you update of the current development of information technologies for management.
2. To build up your skills in searching, summarizing and presenting information in an effective manner.
Requirements of the Assignment:
Identify two related articles published RECENTLY that describe/discuss the topic of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and the Applications. One article should be ONLY published on the Internet, and the other article should be ORIGINALLY published off the Internet (but, it may also be available on the Internet).
Write a short report in APA (American Psychology Association) style on the information technology discussed in the articles, which accounts 10% of your final grade.
The report should be word-processed in Times New Roman 12 pt font, with no less than FIVE double-spaced and numbered pages (with 1” margins on all sides), excluding figures, tables, or illustrations. Fewer pages will result in points deduction. It should include the following parts:

Your name and course information (in      order to save paper, no cover page! Otherwise, some points will be taken      off).
Title of your report.
Abstract of the report (single spaced      and in between the title and the Introduction)
Discussion on the main points and issues      in the two articles via comparison and contrast.
Your reasons of choosing the two      articles, and your comments on them.
References (correct citations in APA      format for both articles, and other articles cited in the report, and not      counted for the length requirement of the report).
