1st classmate comment :
A CRM system is a way to collect and use a person's information regarding that brand. This can be from signup sheets that are being used for voting, or even for ordering products online.
Cloud computing is a way to access information and implementations online instead of having to access all this information through a company's/person's personal hard drive. It allows for free use of storage and does not limit the people who need all the information they can have. It also is completely autonomous meaning that a person who wanted to access the cloud would not need to bring their floppy disk with them to access the data, but rather can have complete access to it through the cloud. Another great take away is the cloud computing is scalable allowing companies or users to intentionally cut down, or up how much usage they want from the cloud provider unlike floppy disks or even memory cards that have a set number of Gigabytes in them.
However, CRM is also great for collecting data from its customers to help create a greater relationship between the brand, and their customers. Some of the data collected includes client's personal preference of communication, email, phone number, and social media data.
Not just for customers are their benefits, but also for the companies that use Cloud based CRM platforms to. A couple of those being affordabi.

However, CRM is also great for collecting data from its
customers to help create a greater relationship between the
brand, and their customers. Some of the data collected includes
client's personal preference of communication, email, phone
number, and social media data.
Not just for customers are their benefits, but also for the
companies that use Cloud based CRM platforms to. A couple of
those being affordability, easy instillation, secure use, and
incredible reliability.
In my personal opinion I think that CRM is already being used
heavily. I am currently also enrolled in a CRM course this
3. quarter and while taking that class I began to understand the
importance of CRM. Especially when it comes to creating that
trust between the brand and the customer. Such things as loyalty
programs would have been unheard of 20 years ago, but now
they are a primary source for a company to understand who they
are selling to.

Chapter:
Chapter 1 - Defining Terrorism
Article Title:
“Terrorism”
Chapter 1 of the text goes into much detail about defining
terrorism and the types of terrorism.
What exactly constitutes terrorism and why does it seem so
complicated to define? This article
from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI, 2021) defines
terrorism as a "contested term, with
no set definition for the concept or broad agreement among
academic experts on its usage "
(para. 1). Is it really that difficult to define? It’s a word and as
such it should just be in any old
dictionary or textbook glossary and boom there's the definition.
Is it more complicated than that?
To answer my own question, yes, it is very complicated. But at
least I’m not alone in the
complicatedness of defining terrorism as it seems like the FBI is
having problems too. The article
6. notes that “the recent spate of extremist attacks in the United
States and Europe have highlighted
the difficulty of defining what constitutes ‘terrorism’” (FBI,
2021, para. 2). Here, The FBI
focuses on recent examples extremism to attempt to answer the
question, even giving the readers
an account of some of the recent terroristic attacks and how the
relate to terrorism and
extremism. By the end of the article the question remains
unclear and unanswered, making this
task of defining terrorism that much more confusing.
The pro of this article is that there were some real-world
examples. These help show the
complicated nature of defining terrorism.
The article would have been more interesting if there were some
frontline details, like the
definition from the FBI’s perspective, especially given it’s the
leading legal enforcement
mechanism in the country.

Sample Discussion Board Post for Criminal Justice
Submitted by Melissia Anderson
Effective writing is so important to criminal justice
professionals for many reasons. According to
Wallace and Roberson (2009), it is estimated that we use 70%
of our time communicating. This may be
accomplished either verbally or in writing. A verbal
communication is considered less formal, while a
written statement is lasting and given more significance.
Because written statements are permanent,
they are assessed as more significant. A report filed by a law
enforcement agent can be used for the
prosecution or defense of a defendant in a court of law.
Inaccuracies in a written report can result in the
failure to convict an individual of a crime. The legal
ramifications of unclear or imprecise writing can be
substantial. An officer must be able to explain the reasons a
8. report is written and filed. They must be
able to defend errors in their reports. Under oath, they will have
to testify from the contents of the
report. Criminal justice professionals must be able to not only
file written reports, but to draft narratives
that are comprehensible and logical for others to grasp (Wallace
& Roberson, 2009).
Working in Pretrial Services I know that clarity is particularly
essential. If our court officers do
not precisely note the judge’s terms or conditions of release, a
defendant may inadvertently violate
their release. It could cost the individual their freedom. Many
times, the judiciary may be vague when
defining terms of release. In this instance court communications
must be sent to distinguish the original
intent from the judge. It wastes valuable time and court
resources to clear up ambiguous conditions.
Plagiarism involves stealing another person’s ideas or works
and using them as your own.
Sometimes this can be blatant, like copying sentences word for
word without using quotation marks. In
other situations, it may be less obvious, such as paraphrasing
content from another source but not citing
it. This; however, is still plagiarism because that content
originated from someone else's ideas or
research, not your own. Plagiarism in this instance can be
avoided by simply using an in-text citation at
the beginning or the end of the paraphrased content. It is always
a good idea to cite a source rather
than chance an allegation of plagiarism (Keiser University,
n.d.). Stealing from another can destroy the
credibility of any criminal justice professional. Because they
represent the law and courts, law
enforcement agents need to be above reproach.

Chapter 12: Structure for Managing Emergency Response
Article Name:
“Florida officials seek tourism boost after Alberto blows
through”
Article Review:
The Emergency Operations Center should be the most important
building of any community.
This is where all the knowledge and nuts and bolts to keep the
safety, economy, and welfare of
all the citizens and dynamics of a city or county, flowing. Every
part of our country has its own
hazards, from California and earthquakes, wildfires and tsunami
threats, to hurricanes, tornadoes,
and floods in the South and Midwest. Every EOC has its own
23. set of emergency plans based on
the threat assessment.
I bring up economy because you see it every storm season,
disasters blow in and everyone flees,
including the tourists which would have spurred the economy
but now are gone, and so is the
economy. Disasters not only pull down the economy, and the
lack of needed tourism, but then is
the increased cost of preparing, mitigating, and recovery of
disasters and emergencies. Hurricane
season started in the south, and now Florida is trying to pull
back in tourists in between storms. I
understand that, but I also see a risk involved. According to one
source, “As winds and rains let
up from Subtropical Storm Alberto, Florida officials Tuesday
were quickly spinning ways to
draw tourists to areas that may have missed out on Memorial
Day crowds” (Turner, 2018, para.
1). The Governor of Florida visited an EOC to thank them for a
job well done for this first storm
as he was questioned about tourism efforts. He said, “The
Legislature gave us $76 million again
this year (for visit Florida), and part of that money is to work
on when we have something like
24. this, to let people know we’re back open for business” (Turner,
2018, para. 5). The EOC is the
hub and is excellent at tracking emergency and disaster
situations before they happen, when
possible, and that success is shown by minimal loss of life and
property.
When greed steps in, that is when you see tourism take a back
seat, but most who have been
through the big storms know those risks, and you see a good
attitude with the Governor of
Florida in this article who knows what his State is facing. It
shows a good leader also who shows
appreciation to those he knows keeps the public safe.
