Module 12: Critical Thinking Assignment
Aligning IT Strategies to Business Strategies (15 Marks)
Delta Corporation has been very impressed with the progress it has made with its new product line and the new marketing approach that you recommended and instigated. As a result, it is now considering expanding this approach for its other product lines, providing them with the ability to market and sell all of its products online. However, it has not considered the implications for its IT department in developing this type of plan. As the Social Media Marketing Consultant, you are familiar with integrating business and IT strategic planning. They have called upon you to provide advice. You need to:
Explain what the company needs to consider if it is going to move to a more on-line approach for its sales and marketing activities. In particular, describe the consequences for its IT department and why they need to be involved in the planning phase.
Given the likely increase in costs associated with this move, you need to outline the potential benefits and possible pitfalls of outsourcing the IT maintenance and development.
Outline some strategic technology trends that the company may wish to monitor and consider for the future.
Finally, research a company in Saudi Arabia and discuss whether they were able to align their overall strategy and their IT strategy. If they were successful discuss how they managed this alignment and what benefits they gained from doing so. If they were not so successful, explain how and why you felt that occurred.
Your well-written report should be 4-5 pages in length, not including the title and reference pages. To make it easier to read and therefore grade, make sure you clearly delineate each section of your answer so it can be matched with the relevant question. Use Saudi Electronic University academic writing standards and APA style guidelines, citing at least two references as appropriate. Review the grading rubric to see how you will be graded for this assignment.

Title: “Developing an Efficient Algorithm: A Step-by-Step Methodology”
The final project includes three deliverables:
Both of your Portfolio Milestones’ submissions combined into one document
Development of an algorithm
A Word document
For your algorithm design:
Algorithms appear almost everywhere in life. For example, a store clerk uses an algorithm with tasks such as scanning items, bagging groceries, and accepting your payment. Other algorithms, such as those that make up computer operating systems, are much more complex. In general, the goal of algorithm design is to complete a job in fewer steps. From what you have learned in the course, use critical thinking to create your own algorithm to complete a computing task. You can use C++, Java, or Python3 to create your algorithm.
Tips:
Remove unwanted comments
Use proper logic
Use fast calculating iterations
Have a clear plan before creating the algorithm
Make it small
Make it efficient
For your Word document:
There are four steps to algorithm methodology.
In a 3-4-page paper, discuss your algorithm design in relation to these four steps. Describe how you went through each step of the methodology to create your algorithm.
Your paper should be 3-4 pages in length (excluding cover page and references).
You must include a minimum of three credible, academic or professional references beyond the text or other course materials. The CSU Global Library is a great place to find these references. You can access the CSU Global Writing Center and Library by selecting “Library” on the Canvas left-hand navigation panel.
