I. Description
The student will find a topic of interest and perform in-depth work on that topic. The project must be sufficiently complex to require the expertise of a junior-senior level student. The student must narrow the topic from the broad topics listed below:
Project topics must not be those previously developed in the mid-term group projects. Topics may be in the areas of :
Technology Issues in the Workplace;
Social Institutions and the Effect of Technology;
International Perspectives and Issues;
Anonymity, Security, Privacy, and Civil Liberties;
Intellectual Property Rights and Computer Technology;
Software Issues: Risks and Liabilities, Computer Crimes, Technology Ethics, and Privacy; and Preservation of Data for Future Use.
A student should first check the thread before posting his/her topic. The first student to notify the instructor by email will take precedence over any other student. For example, if “A Comparison of IT development in Singapore with IT development in France” is chosen, then the second student will have to choose another topic.
All topics require the approval of the instructor. Discuss questions relating to the paper with the instructor at any time necessary. E-mail your instructor at any time.
II. Learning Objectives
Read and research problems created by technology in society and some ways to modify or prevent these problems. Discuss these in the paper.
Demonstrate an in-depth understanding of the topic by comparing/contrasting data.
Gather information by:
reading the course textbooks, reading documentation materials
contacting “experts” on the topic
researching library materials
using the Internet
All of the above information gathering sources will be documented in the research paper following MLA or APA format (not a combination of both). The content of the research paper is fairly open. See the description above.
III. Criteria for the Paper
Note a few of the common reasons why the Individual research term paper would not meet the minimum standards:
Too easy. As stated above, the work must be “sufficiently complex to require the expertise of junior-senior level students.”
Too little time spent in research and writing.
Overlap of another course. If the content of the research paper involves concepts covered in another course(s), then it must be of a different or more complex nature. It includes the understanding that the stu.

Assignment 2: Community Violence in the U.S.
In the increasingly violent times that the U.S. is experiencing, it has been observed that children in some areas are terrorized by street violence. Gang warfare can easily turn a quiet neighborhood into a war zone, where children might become inadvertent victims. Although some children can’t cope with the fear, a few are able to rise above it and confidently move ahead.
What are risk factors for children to become involved in gang activity?
Describe some of the effects of gang violence on children.
Describe some of the characteristics of children who grow stronger by surviving in these environments.
Discuss how parents in these neighborhoods could foster these characteristics in growing children.

Unit 2 Due Jan 18 2015
This assignment has 2 parts.
Part 1
When you look at ancient art, particularly ancient sculpture, you see progression in how the body in motion is represented. For this assignment, find 3 different sculptures, all from the ancient period (created between 30,000 BCE and 500 CE), which show progression of how the body is depicted in motion. For example, your first sculpture may be largely stationary, the second shows some motion, while the third shows an active body.
You may choose examples of sculpture from any of the following museums:
•
A New York art museum
•
A Paris museum
•
Select galleries in a Washington, DC museum
•
A Boston Museum
Paste images of all 3 sculptures into a Word document, and include details about each work: the title of each sculpture, the artist (if known), the year made, the materials used, and the size of the work. Be sure to include a reference for each work, showing which museum it was found in. Present 2 or 3 paragraphs for each work that clearly describe what the viewer sees and the content of each work. Finally, choose 3 adjectives (for each work) that express the core ideas of what the works were intended to communicate or convey to the viewer.
Part 2
Create a simple drawing of each sculpture. Draw a line down each work to indicate the center of balance. Use arrows or lines with arrows to indicate the direction of motion and movement within the sculpture. Scan or photograph your drawings and paste them into the Word document from Part 1. You can insert images into documents by placing the cursor where you want the image to be, going to “Insert,” then choosing “Picture,” and selecting the picture from your computer. Be sure to scan or photograph your drawing first and upload it to your computer.
Part 3
For each sculpture that you have chosen, choose a photograph, cartoon, movie poster, or any other image which uses the same stance, or bears remarkable similarity to the sculpture you chose in Part 1. Present at least 1 of these modern-day equivalents, with appropriate comments discussing any relevant details.
Submit 1 Word document for this assignment.
You are required to comply with APA style format for quotations, internal citations, and a reference list. For additional information and resources on APA style, visit the APA section of the Library, which is available under Library Features.

Unit 3 Point of View Essay (2) - AssignmentThe second portion of .docx
Unit 3: Point of View Essay (2) - Assignment
The second portion of this assignment is the rhetorical analysis, which should be at least 400-500 words in length. In the rhetorical analysis, you will explain how you used the five features to make the same exact place seem so very positive in one paragraph and yet so negative in the second paragraph.
The second portion of this assignment is a two step process.
1.) Review your two paragraphs noting each of the places you used any of the tools in the Writer's Toolbox. Try to find at least two examples of each of the tools from the Writer's Toolbox employed in each descriptions (except for tell sentences and direct statements of meaning, which you should have limited to only one per paragraph). If you can’t find two examples of the other features in each of your descriptions, you’ll probably want to revise your initial description, adding more of those features.
2.) Write your rhetorical analysis, devoting at least one paragraph to each of the tools in the Writer's Toolbox. You will probably want to begin each paragraph of the rhetorical analysis with a general claim. “I used a great deal of word choice in each of my two descriptions.” Then you’ll want to follow that claim with examples. “For instance, in my positive paragraph, I described the sun as “gleaming,” which implies that the light was pleasantly bright. However, in my negative paragraph, I described the sun as “glaring,” implying that the light was too bright, and in fact painful to look at.”
Here’s a student example of the second portion of this assignment. (This is the same student who focused on Pillsbury Crossing in his positive and negative descriptions.)
Rhetorical Analysis
I chose Pillsbury Crossing for my descriptions in this paper. I enjoyed writing about Pillsbury Crossing because it seemed to offer many positive and negatives, and I had never been there before. This allowed me to record my own first impressions, both pleasant and unpleasant. The floodplain is very peaceful, yet it is scarred by humankind’s misuse of the nature park.
I wrote my first sentence as an overt statement which explained the mood of the rest of the paragraph. For my pleasant impression, I stated “Nature’s beauty surrounds me,” emphasizing the beauty on can find in a place such as this. In contrast, for my negative impression, I wrote “Death has had her way here.” The notion of death immediately makes the tone grim and unpleasant, even though death is also a fundamental aspect of the natural world.
With my tone clearly established, I next had to consider my word choice very carefully. In order to show the reader what I experienced, I had to choose words that fit the mood of the description as set by my overt statements of meaning. In my pleasant description, I discuss the sun’s rays and how they are “crisp” and “relieving.” These words make the sun’s rays seem pleasant and positive; however, in the negative description, th.

There are six groups of receptors classified by the type of stimuli that activate them: chemical, mechanical, thermal, photic, auditory, and vestibular. The general or somatic senses include touch, pressure, temperature, and pain and have receptors located throughout the body. The three types of sense receptors classified by location are cutaneous, proprioceptive, and interoceptive receptors. Pain, touch, pressure, and stretch responses are detected by nociceptors, mechanoreceptors, baroreceptors, and muscle spindles respectively.

Understanding health care information systems planning and implement.docx
Understanding health care information systems planning and implementation is an important skill for health care leaders. Technology is advancing and the adoption of information systems in healthcare has progressed from being just a cool tool to a must have in terms of quality, access, profitability, and competitiveness. It is inevitable that managers and/or leaders will be faced with technology changes and/or upgrades; making the need to understand the basics of health care information system development and the standards required fundamental. Health leaders are charged with mandating and facilitating set data/information standards (classification, codes, data, etc.) set forth by the HITECH Act and HIPAA. One such standard is the Nationwide Health Information Network (NwHIN) which enables health information exchange on the worldwide web. In a 300 word initial response, address the following points:
What processes are involved in a systems development lifecycle?
Explain each process and how they relate to one another.
Next, apply each process.
How are the processes used in health care information system development?
What are the four methods of development of health care information system standards?
How do these methods affect interoperability?
Name three organizations as well as the roles they play in standard development.

Under the common law, from the 1500s until today, the law has allow.docx
Under the common law, from the 1500's until today, the law has allowed past property owners to place limitations on the uses of real property in the future through the use of covenants (promises) as set forth in real property deeds as well as use of the fee defeasable estates (i.e. "To John Doe, so long as the property is used as a tobacco farm") and the evolution of zoning statutes and practice. Thomas Jefferson argued vehemently that no past owner of real property (dead or alive) should be allowed to restrict a future owner of real property concerning its present use; however, the Virginia State Legislature disagreed with him and land use limitation continues today. Jefferson described this practice as "Allowing the dead to control the lands of the living."
Was Jefferson right, or should we maintain the practice of allowing past property owners to place land use limitations in deeds of lands sold or gifted? Further, should the government be allowed to determine how a private property owner uses his/her respective land?

Understanding health care information systems planning and implement.docx
Understanding health care information systems planning and implementation is an important skill for health care leaders. Technology is advancing and the adoption of information systems in healthcare has progressed from being just a cool tool to a must have in terms of quality, access, profitability, and competitiveness. It is inevitable that managers and/or leaders will be faced with technology changes and/or upgrades; making the need to understand the basics of health care information system development and the standards required fundamental. Health leaders are charged with mandating and facilitating set data/information standards (classification, codes, data, etc.) set forth by the HITECH Act and HIPAA. One such standard is the Nationwide Health Information Network (NwHIN) which enables health information exchange on the worldwide web. In a 300 word initial response, address the following points:
What processes are involved in a systems development lifecycle?
Explain each process and how they relate to one another.
Next, apply each process.
How are the processes used in health care information system development?
What are the four methods of development of health care information system standards?
How do these methods affect interoperability?
Name three organizations as well as the roles they play in standard development.
