Note: This week's discussion is being distinctively conducted as a collaborative activity, so you'll be required to address any one of the above AIS products in your first posting, and then throughout the week you must subsequently contribute at least two other postings that each reply to or follow up in some way to address comments posted by one or more of your classmates, ideally by comparing the characteristics, capabilities, and advantages and disadvantages of an AIS that your classmate described, and how this software package might compare among the others discussed.
In crafting each of your postings, please provide your thoughts, explanations, and examples. It's important to articulate your perspectives, adequately support your assertions, and be respectful of the viewpoints of others expressed in this discussion. Our intent for this group-based conversation will be to do a thorough job of facilitating some comprehensive discourse and deliberation among us, and in this collaborative process, we'll seek to elevate our collective understanding of how nuanced and complex decisions relating to the optimum choice of an AIS can be for a business.
