STAT101 SEU Statistics Discussion
Description
Report Instructions: In this report, you must examine how IT is used in an industry that you are interested in.
You must define the industry, describe key issues and current IT trends. A secondary goal is for you to learn about and use sources like ONET, IBIS World and Gartner. (Length: 2.25-2.5 pages: please do not go over or under).
Introduction: Discuss what the paper is about
A small section on your Career and Industry:
For your career– What kind of career are you interested in?
(Feel free to discuss your entry-level career and your career 10 years down the road!). Use ONET or a similar site
(and be sure to reference it at the end). As far as your industry, the IBIS source is great to use. Include the
following:
*Industry NAICS title and code. Please include a source citation.
*Industry Size (typically measured in billions of dollars). Please include a source citation.
*Industry Competitors (two to three sample firms). Please include a source citation.
A larger section on the one (or two–no more) strategic IT Trend (from Gartner articles) that impacts you
10 strategic IT trends impacts your industry the most? For your industry, look up each strategic IT trend and note
which ones produce the most/best results. Another strategy to try is to use other sources (Google) to identify
trends in your industry and then use Gartner to learn more about one or two of the trends. Be specific in this
section. Use Gartner as a source (and be sure to cite it in your post and reference it at the end) and include
source citations. Include specific examples of that trend affecting specific firms in your industry.
Conclusion: wrap up your report
Format: Microsoft Word document, double-spaced, 1-inch margins, Times New Roman 12-point font. Word Count

In-Post Citations, References and Quotation Marks: You should have at least five cites (citations) WITHIN the paper
AND five corresponding references at the end. One cite and reference needs to come from Gartner.
