Assignment: ePortfolio

1. Content

The ePortfolio1 consists of three items:

A. A 600-800 words reflective report on how technology may help the business in the Case Study (see below). This task requires you to critically apply your knowledge and understanding in information systems, particularly on data and knowledge management and business intelligence. This reflective report should demonstrate how you have actively engaged in the unit materials (textbook and Theory Study Guide) and online discussion forums. It should show how you have drawn ideas from these forums and the unit materials to understand the concepts you have learnt.

Your reflection must be YOUR OWN and must NOT repeat the summary notes from your textbook. It may include relevant diagrams, pictures, audios or videos, created by yourself or others with proper acknowledgement.

To demonstrate your engagement with the unit materials, include relevant references to them, for eg., references to pages or chapters in the prescribed textbook, or to other readings or online materials.

To demonstrate your engagement in online Discussion Forums, include references to three (3) of your Discussion Forum (DF) posts.
References to online materials, including DF posts, must include hyperlinks.
B. Screen captures of your DF posts

At the end of your report, include screen captures of three (3) selected DF posts of your own in Discussion Forums weeks 1 to 6. The screen captures must show the whole content of your post including the header that shows the forum title, time, date, and author, and the specific question you are replying. The text in the screen captures must be readable.

C. An Excel spreadsheet that you implement for the business in the Case Study based on a given shell. You should select to include in this spreadsheet example data and functions that are relevant and useful to the business. Further, at least the following must be included in your spreadsheet:

1. Use of SUM or AVERAGE and COUNT
