use the facts listed in the case study and the concepts in the textbook to draw your own conclusions demonstrate exceptional critical thinking skills
apply the relevant concepts from the textbook chapters to the case study correctly
include facts from the case study to support your own position
Your case study analysis is to be a minimum of 2 complete pages in length. Going over the minimum page length requirement is acceptable; however, I am not looking for a 5+ page essay.
