'E-business in the News" Article
The Objective of the "E-business in the News" mid-term paper
assignment is to write an article that examines a trend or a topic
relevant to e-business. This should preferably be a new or emerging
trend, but can also be an established trend or practice as long as
it's relevant to the topic of e-business or e-commerce. The trend
could be technological, business, social, economic, political,
environmental or scientific in nature.
Here is a suggested approach you could follow to write your article:
* You should select a topic that is of interest to you

* Conduct your research

* Define the topic,

* Summarize your research findings,

* Formulate a point of view and provide supporting argument and evidence for it

* Conclude with YOUR OWN predictions of the trend direction: the
degree to which the trend will be adopted and implemented, fail or
succeed, grow or slow down.

The article should be at least 2 pages and at most 3 pages (excluding
the cover page and the references). Everyone should use the same
template attached. Please follow the introduction, body and conclusion
format.
You are expected to demonstrate understanding and appropriate use of
the e-business topics we coved in class.
Please take good care to properly list all your references and
absolutely avoid verbatim copy and paste from other sources. Quoted
citations should also be kept to a minimum. All your paper submissions
are required to be checked for plagiarism.
