Case Assignment
Academic Integrity
Trident values academic integrity, and the Module 1 Case is devoted to this topic. It is important that we discuss this issue early in our course. To earn your degree, you will be required to write research papers and complete worksheets, quizzes, and tests. Choosing to do your best work with pride and ownership is important as you continue your academic journey. Think about the meaning of Academic Integrity and view how Trident defines and values integrity in academia in the University Catalog – Policy Handbook, which is available online at https://www.trident.edu/catalog/.
Chapter 7 (Box 7.2) in Thriving at Trident will help you better understand what plagiarism is and how it is a violation of academic integrity. In this chapter, you will also acquire strategies to locate and evaluate information, construct papers and reports, and use writing as a tool to learn deeply and think critically. This will help you develop as a scholar.

You are now leading a cross-functional team to move forward with the company initiative. To remain a viable competitor and meet the demands of consumers’ desire for technology, the company’s chief technology officer (CTO) has decided to implement the internet of things (IoT) into its product line.
In Milestone One, you and your cross-functional team looked at risks and benefits of each innovation option, competitors in the market, and the company’s internal capability for moving forward with the innovation. After doing this analysis, you presented your recommendation to various stakeholders about how to proceed. You chose one of the following:
Design a completely new product line, based on the recent technology (discontinuous innovation)
or
Add recent technology features into one model and then incrementally into the broader product line (incremental innovation) THIS IS THE OPTION I HAVE CHOSEN The CTO has accepted your recommendation. Now you are ready to develop a strategy for taking the innovation to market. In order to develop a strategy, you will need to look at your competitors’ relative strengths in the current marketplace, to understand how the company compares to your competitors, and to identify the total market and the market’s annual growth rate. Finally, you also need to share your thoughts on how to respond to changes in business conditions. Although no one can predict what is going to happen, it is important to think about how flexible your plan is in order to meet unexpected conditions.

1. Mission Statement that addresses minimally, what business will the company is in, who the
customers are, and how will the company’s basic beliefs define the business.
2. Strategy: How do you plan to gain a competitive advantage in the market place, or in other
words, “what are your core competencies?” Try to address the question, whether your
company will compete on, cost, quality, time (speed), or flexibility? Or a combination of two or
more of these dimensions, giving reasonable explanations.

design and testing (pilot, samples, any market tests etc.) d) Final design (components, processes,
material, machinery and other resources necessary to manufacture your product- including any
outsourcing)
5. How will you ensure consistent quality in your products and processes? How do your
company’s standards compare with the industry standards? Any bench marking etc.
6. Forecasting: Decide what to forecast. Evaluate and analyze appropriate data (industry,
regional, and national including demand data from a similar company). Select the forecasting
method (quantitative, not qualitative) and justify your selection. Generate forecasts (please

management policies and ERP implementation, if any. -
Title: Information Literacy and the SQ3R System: Analyzing a Chapter from a College Textbook “Tools for Student Success: Navigating Microsoft Office, Tutor.com, Turnitin, and ReadSpeaker”
Information Literacy
One attribute of a self-reliant, lifelong learner is information literacy—the ability to locate, evaluate, and use information. When you are information literate, you are a critical consumer of information who knows how to access accurate and relevant information whenever you need it.
Chapter 5 of Thriving at Trident (p. 102; Box. 5.2) introduces a popular system for organizing and remembering effective reading strategies—the SQ3R system. SQ3R is an acronym for key steps that should be taken when reading college textbooks. Research supports the effectiveness of the SQ3R system for improving reading comprehension and exam performance. The system consists of the following five-step sequence:
Survey
Question
Read
Recite
Review
This system will be used in completing the Module 1 SLP assignment.
