Part 2: Choosing national air quality priorities (short essay answer)
Review the background information on each of the pollutants covered under the NAAQS and, based on the available information and considering the questions you addressed above, indicate which ambient air pollutant you believe should be a national regulatory priority for the United States and why. Support your choice by describing the types of health consequences associated with the pollutant (including any susceptible populations), its major sources, and when the standards were last reviewed and/or changed. Then, provide a brief explanation of one or more global implications for regulation of this pollutant by the United States. Be sure to cite your sources.

__MACOSX/assignment/._.DS_Store
assignment/assignment.docx
The application will keep track of one student’s assignment
grade information for any number courses, and each course can
be anywhere from 1 to 16 weeks long. For each week of the
course, the assignments are (1) threaded discussion score, (2)
quiz score, (3) lab assignment score, and an exam. Not all the
7. week’s will have each of the assignment score recorded, and the
final week of the course will have a final exam score only.
A student will be able to keep assignment scores for any number
of courses, and each course will have the school name, the
course number, the course title, and how many weeks there are
in the course.
For a selected course, the application will allow the user to
enter the scores, and once the scores are entered for the week
the application will calculate the weekly total and the weekly
average, along with the course running total score, running
average, and letter grade to date (based on course syllabus grade
breakdown).
The database will contain two tables (1) Courses and (2)
Assignments, using the following table names and fields
1. Course
a. Id
b. School
c. Number
d. Title
2. Assignments
a. Id
b. CourseID
c. WeekNumber
d. TDA
e. Lab
f. Quiz
g. Test
The application will display a table that displays the following
for each course that is recorded:
1. Course Number
2. Course Title
3. Course Grade
While the application and database will be user name and
password protected, it is outside the scope of this project to
8. provide a complete, robust, and secure authentication
component. So, for the purposes of this development, you will
just store the user name and password comma separated value
text file.Design Requirements
The program design shall adhere to the following design
requirements:
1. The program will be constructed using a 3-tier architecture
(1) data, (2) business, and (3) presentation tier and each tier
will only implement the operations appropriate for the tier.
2. The graphical user interface will be constructed using a tab
panel interface, with each tab containing only those operations
related to the tab heading.
3. The order of the tabs will be in logical sequence.
4. The graphical user interface will contain a main menu bar,
and there shall be a menu for each tab that mirrors the
operations on the tab.
5. Each menu item will have a logical name and short cut key
assigned.
6. Each “active” control (i.e. radio button, command button...)
shall have a tooltip describing the operation the control
provides.
7. There shall be a logical, sequential tab order for the input
controls on the form.
8. All class members, both variables and methods, shall by
default be made private.
9. Access to any class/object data member shall only be done
through getters and setters.
10. Methods shall only be made public if it is necessary for
other objects to call the methods.
11. Private variables shall only be access through getters and
setters.
12. All setters will have validation logic to ensure the private
variable is always in a stable state.
FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS
The program operations will adhere to the following
9. requirements:
1. The maximum points of all the assignments is 1000 points.
2. Each input score item shall be validated against a lower and
upper bound.
3. The lower and upper bounds of each of the assignments shall
be stored in the database or a file.
4. The user must authenticate into the program when it starts.
5. The user name and password shall be stored in a file (which
simulates an authentication component).
6. The running total, running average, and current grade shall
only include scores that have been recorded.
7. The threaded discussion score shall be calculated by the user
being able to select whether a student attended, or posted a note
on a day of the week, for each of the 7 weeks.
8. If a student attends at least three days, the student will
receive full credit for the weekly threaded discussion score.
9. The automatically assigned threaded discussion score, can be
overridden to a lower, or higher score, but within the limits of
the minimum and maximum scores.
10. The weekly total, weekly average, running total, and
running average shall be updated any time one of the dependent
fields is updated.
11. Database operations shall be secure and be written to
minimize SQL injection or other transport type attacks.
Analysis and Design
You will create an analysis and design document that consists
of:
1. Document the current “as is” structure of the program.
2. Create a class/Object Diagram (this can be done in any
drawing tool, or even hand drawn and take a picture).
Instead of you creating a program from scratch, I am giving a
program shell with several TODO action items. You will also
be asked to document the structure and class/object diagram
given the project."
10. Because of this, I assume that these diagrams (UML) as well as
a completed TODO list (commented throughout the shell) will
need to be completed.
