The first Mini-Exam is a Reflection Paper, focusing on a specific IT
application or system. You can choose any one technological alternative
discussed in Part I and examine how the technology is being applied in
public or nonprofit sectors. [For example, you can choose “Blockchain
Applications in Public Sector” and write about the uses of blockchain in
public sector.] You should provide at least three sections: (a) basic
principles of the technology; (b) uses of the technology in the public
or nonprofit sector; and (c) an in-depth empirical case study where the
technology has been applied. Obviously, all papers should have an
introduction and a conclusion. The paper can be about 6 to 8 pages for
PAD 6718 students and 4 tot 6 pages for PAD 4712 students.

. [I am asking you to use this template, so that you
become familiar with formatting using Styles in Microsoft Word. Once
you become comfortable with Styles, you can easily format a 100 page
document in just a few minutes! If you do not already have, create a
Mendeley account and make a directory for IT_EGOV or SMART_GOV. You can
add all references for the class here. Click here to know more about
where to find reference materials for PA papers and how reference
managers like Mendeley can help in organizing them. Although I wrote the
blog for helping PhD students, this would be very helpful for you to
write MPA and BPA papers as well. You do not need to bother about
formatting your bibliography in APA; you can create it with just few
clicks in Mendeley. ]
