BUA 3305: MIS Analysis and Design
Summary Report Assignments Guidelines and Rubric
Overview:? Summary report assignments will be assigned in several modules throughout the course. The resources assigned for these
assignments are intended to provide thought-provoking, technology-relevant content that the textbook does not address. The textbook for this
course presents a general survey of timeless information about systems analysis and design, without specific concentration in any particular
technology area. The resources in these assignments will expose you to specific real-world technology-related concepts that are beyond the
scope of the text and are intended to connect basic system concepts to provocative theories, and in some cases, cutting-edge technologies.
Directions: ?For each summary report assignment, you will write a summary report analyzing the main arguments of the assigned article or video.
To complete this assignment, address the following critical elements in a written summary report:
? Summarize the article overall in the form of an abstract statement. This should be a succinctly written summary (two or three sentences)
to aid the reader in discerning the article or videoàpurpose.
? Describe the main points (two to three paragraphs minimum)
? Explain whether you agree or disagree with any of the points made and why (two paragraphs minimum)
? Analyze the social or ethical issues involved from your vantage point
? Finally, list 10 nuggets of information you found interesting or did not know
Guidelines for Submission:? Your summary report must be submitted as a two- to three-page Microsoft Word document plus a title page, with
double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. Resources outside of the assigned article are not required.
Instructor Feedback:? This activity uses an integrated rubric in Blackboard. Students can view instructor feedback in the Grade Center.
