Technology makes vast amounts of information (and misinformation) readily available. The challenge is navigating this sea of information. Our goal for your general science education is to develop your scientific literacy. A critical skill you must develop is the ability to find reputable sources for scientific information. There are many sources of high-quality scientific information on the open web; you just need to learn how to spot them.
For this week’s discussion:
Select a source of chemistry information from the open web (the topic can be any topic related to chemistry or that of your research topic).
Evaluate the source and explain why it is or is not a credible source of information.

Balanced scorecard is a management tool which is used by companies to gain complex information at a glance. According to Kaplan and Norton (1992), balanced scorecard is a set of measures that gives top managers a fast but comprehensive view of the business. The balanced scorecard allows managers to look at the business from four main perspectives: Customer perspective, internal perspective, innovation and learning perspective and financial perspective. This project will critically examine the usefulness of balanced scorecard with the four main perspectives as a base and a view of longer term perspective. I have used a case study of Tesco PLC in order to examine the usefulness of balanced scorecard.
