Individual Assignment Instructions:
For the individual assignment, create an
“integration essay” addressing the concepts related to reverse
logistics and/or OEM reverse logistics. To accomplish integration, locate
multiple articles. They can be periodical magazine articles or
journal articles. Compare and contrast the ideas of multiple authors. Brief
summaries of the authors’ ideas are appropriate. However, most of the essay
should match to the verbs in the Bloom’s Taxonomy diagram. Select the
application and analyze a portion of the diagram to develop an acceptable
master’s level essay. Notice the product content of the article.
Be sure to apply APA formatting and include scholarly
articles to develop the essay discussion points.
