Operations Management

Participate in a discussion on the Blackboard site – Discussion No. 4. The discussion concerns your ability to do basic research to better understand the principles of operation management. Your task is to find one reference article (electronically, using the BU Library – www.bu.edu/library - do not use Google Search) that concerns a topic covered previously in this course. It should not be an article mentioned in class or referenced to by another student in the discussion board.
To help organize the discussion board, input the title of your article as the title of your post. This way, you can be sure than no one else has used your article beforehand.
For the article that you choose, explain:
• What course topic your article addresses,
• How the article’s coverage differs from what was included in the course notes, and
• Why it adds to our understanding of the course material.
Use between 150 and 250 words for your post. Do not just copy from the paper or its abstract. Read the paper and think about the three bullets above.
In addition, list the reference citation for your article using the APA format, and attach a pdf of the article. This link helps you better understand the APA writing style, in particular, how to cite and reference correctly (http://library.bu.edu/citeys). A link to an excellent guide is provided here (https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/).
For this discussion, you should not respond to the post of another student. So, there should be one post per student, each with the title of an article as the title of the post.
