MAT 543 Strayer University Quantitative Analysis Report

Expectations of you:
- Write a two to three (2-3) page paper in which you:
- Construct a fish-bone chart using Word or MS Paint.
- Construct a run and / or control chart using Excel.
- Recommend to the ambulatory health service on how it can improve the services it offers in its walk-in urgent care clinic, based on your analysis.
- Provide a rationale for your recommendation.
- DO NOT JUST GIVE ME DIAGRAMS ALONE – BUT EXPLAIN THEM AND PROVIDE SOME INSIGHTS ON THEM – ESPECIALLY AS TO WHAT INFORMATION THEY PROVIDE.
Requirements:
- Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
-
- Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
- Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the students name, the professors name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.
Now here are some helpful hints, tips and tricks for your paper:
- Give your paper a structure that is, divide it into sections and give each section a title (e.g., Introduction, Forecasting Methods, Analysis, Conclusion, etc.). DO NOT JUST WRITE A TWO-PAGE PAPER OR THREE-PAGE WITH NO SECTION HEADINGS.
- Read the assignment several times to see what you are being asked to do. If you have doubts, reach out to me.
- Make certain that you read the questions that you are asked to answer carefully and read them several times.
- Do NOT give me 1.5 page paper. You can give me 4 pages or 5 pages (or even longer) if you want. A short paper will simply not cover all of the issues to the depth needed. In the first paper, I had several students who barely gave me 2 pages. That does not work the paper is too superficial.
- Give me substance in your paper. I want depth and not superficiality.
- The cover page and the page that has your references on it DOES NOT COUNT to your page total.

I believe that this set of youtube videos should be quite helpful to you in doing the case study in Week 9 and the homework for Week 9 as well.
If you are still a bit confused, then I would encourage you to look at Wikipedia as that generic reference source has some general comments and guidance on these topics that might be of help.
