Overview Every organization must consider the mandatory and reco.docxalfred4lewis58146
Overview
Every organization must consider the mandatory and recommended practices when creating its information security program and/or security policies. Legislative documents such as FISMA are mandatory, yet standards documents such as FIPS 200 can also be mandatory. The selected organization used one or more standard when creating its information security program. For this project, you will identify a standard used by your organization in its information security program, then compare and contrast with another similar standard.
Learning Objectives
After completing this project, students will be able to:
1. Identify recognized US Standards Organizations
2. Describe at least two technical standards
3. Compare and contrast technical standards for information systems security technologies.
4. Describe how the technical standards impact the selected organizations' information security programs
Deliverable
Your research paper should be at least three (3), full pages, double spaced, 1-inch margins, in New Times Roman 12-pitch font, with a cover page (name, course number, date, title of paper) and a reference page. The cover page and reference page are not included in the three-page minimum. Papers not meeting the three full-page minimum will lose points. You must have at least three scholarly sources, correctly formatted per APA guidelines. Submit your research paper to the appropriate TurnItIn assignment area by the due date.
Detailed Description of Learning Activity
1. Review your organization's information security program documentation and determine what standard(s) the organization used to create the program.
2. Pick one of the following three standard options for your comparison:
FIPS 200 and ISO 27002
FIPS 140-2 and ISO 19790
DES/3DES/AES (if you select this option you must compare all three standards against each other)
3. Select three (3) to five (5) points of analysis (POAs) from the FIPS 200, FIPS 140-2, or AES standard.
4. Find the equivalent POA in the ISO 27002, ISO 19790, or 3DES/DES standard respectively.
5. Write your research paper. At a minimum, the paper should include
an Introduction that includes the purpose of your paper, introduces the organization, and explains why you selected the standards you are researching
a Standards section that describes from a general standpoint, the two standards you selected for the paper
a Points of Analysis section that describes your three to five points, from a general standpoint
a Compare and Contrast section explaining the diffrences between the two standards, using details and specifics
Use spell and grammar check before submitting. It is also a good idea to have someone else read your paper.
Submit the project to TurnItIn by the due date. Put your Turnitin score on the cover page. It cannot exceed 20%
6. Examples of POAs:
Cryptographic Key Management (FIPS 140-2)

Due Date: Oct 20, 2015 23:59:59 Max Points: 145
Details:
Doctoral researchers must be able to manage statistical data in order to draw conclusions about the data from a research study. This assignment will allow you to practice your skills in working with standard deviation, hypotheses, and standard error.
General Requirements:
Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:
· Read each segment of this assignment carefully. There is information in the segment that will guide your completion.
· Instructors will be using a grading rubric to grade the assignments. It is recommended that learners review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment in order to become familiar with the assignment criteria and expectations for successful completion of the assignment.
· Doctoral learners are required to use APA style for their writing assignments. The APA Style Guide is located in the Student Success Center.
· This assignment requires that at least two additional scholarly research sources related to this topic, and at least one in-text citation from each source be included.
Directions:
In an essay of 250-500 words, thoroughly address the following items and respond to the related questions:
1. Define the term standard deviation. Why is it important to know the standard deviation for a given sample? What do researchers learn about a normal distribution from knowledge of the standard deviation? A sample of n=20 has a mean of M = 40. If the standard deviation is s=5, would a score of X= 55 be considered an extreme value? Why or why not?
2. Hypothesis testing allows researchers to use sample data, taken from a larger population, to draw inferences (i.e., conclusions) about the population from which the sample came. Hypothesis testing is one of the most commonly used inferential procedures. Define and thoroughly explain the terms null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis. How are they used in hypothesis testing?
3. Define the term standard error. Why is the standard error important in research using sample distributions? Consider the following scenario: A random sample obtained from a population has a mean of µ=100 and a standard deviation of σ = 20. The error between the sample mean and the population mean for a sample of n = 16 is 5 points and the error between a sample men and population mean for a sample of n = 100 is 2 points. Explain the difference in the standard error for the two samples.
Rubric-
The term standard deviation is defined correctly in a thorough manner. All of the follow-up questions are correctly answered in a thorough manner.
The terms null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis are defined correctly and thoroughly. The application of these terms to hypothesis testing is thorough and indicative of deep understanding of the concepts.
The term standard error is defined correctly in a thorough manner. All of the follow-up ques.

Course Project Outline with Title and References Pages Assignment Instructions
In Week 3 you began the process of developing your Course Project by brainstorming a list of people who are leaders somehow related to your field of study and who might be good role models for you in your quest to become a leader in your career field. By this point you should have selected a role-model leader. Now you are ready to start gathering information and putting together your actual Course Project (due Week 8).
You will need to do some real research to gather information on the required elements as we explore the topic of leadership. Using the library databases (LexisNexis, EBSCO, ProQuest, etc.), you should identify and gather information from at least three good research sources. Use what you learned from your textbook (Chapter 5) and the Week 4 class discussion to help you find good sources.
Since this project is not just a biography of some famous person, you may only use one source from a biography database. Research to find and gather information on how your leader worked to become a recognized leader and how this person has demonstrated leadership in the field. You must also find information on the definition of leadership and key leadership skills, the role of individual accountability as it relates to leadership, and the process you might follow to develop leadership skills and become a leader.
For Week 5, you are to prepare an outline with a title page and a references page. This assignment will be scored out of 100 points. A thoughtfully-prepared outline will help you organize all of your ideas and establish a framework for your well-supported, meaningful research project.
Your outline should be one to two pages long and should cover all required elements of the project in a logical manner. Each body section of your outline must include cited, researched support from quality sources found in the academic databases.
You must use at least three sources now, though you will most l.

Due Date: Oct 20, 2015 23:59:59 Max Points: 145
Details:
Doctoral researchers must be able to manage statistical data in order to draw conclusions about the data from a research study. This assignment will allow you to practice your skills in working with standard deviation, hypotheses, and standard error.
General Requirements:
Use the following information to ensure successful completion of the assignment:
· Read each segment of this assignment carefully. There is information in the segment that will guide your completion.
· Instructors will be using a grading rubric to grade the assignments. It is recommended that learners review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment in order to become familiar with the assignment criteria and expectations for successful completion of the assignment.
· Doctoral learners are required to use APA style for their writing assignments. The APA Style Guide is located in the Student Success Center.
· This assignment requires that at least two additional scholarly research sources related to this topic, and at least one in-text citation from each source be included.
Directions:
In an essay of 250-500 words, thoroughly address the following items and respond to the related questions:
1. Define the term standard deviation. Why is it important to know the standard deviation for a given sample? What do researchers learn about a normal distribution from knowledge of the standard deviation? A sample of n=20 has a mean of M = 40. If the standard deviation is s=5, would a score of X= 55 be considered an extreme value? Why or why not?
2. Hypothesis testing allows researchers to use sample data, taken from a larger population, to draw inferences (i.e., conclusions) about the population from which the sample came. Hypothesis testing is one of the most commonly used inferential procedures. Define and thoroughly explain the terms null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis. How are they used in hypothesis testing?
3. Define the term standard error. Why is the standard error important in research using sample distributions? Consider the following scenario: A random sample obtained from a population has a mean of µ=100 and a standard deviation of σ = 20. The error between the sample mean and the population mean for a sample of n = 16 is 5 points and the error between a sample men and population mean for a sample of n = 100 is 2 points. Explain the difference in the standard error for the two samples.
Rubric-
The term standard deviation is defined correctly in a thorough manner. All of the follow-up questions are correctly answered in a thorough manner.

Course Project Outline with Title and References Pages Assignment Instructions
In Week 3 you began the process of developing your Course Project by brainstorming a list of people who are leaders somehow related to your field of study and who might be good role models for you in your quest to become a leader in your career field. By this point you should have selected a role-model leader. Now you are ready to start gathering information and putting together your actual Course Project (due Week 8).
You will need to do some real research to gather information on the required elements as we explore the topic of leadership. Using the library databases (LexisNexis, EBSCO, ProQuest, etc.), you should identify and gather information from at least three good research sources. Use what you learned from your textbook (Chapter 5) and the Week 4 class discussion to help you find good sources.
Since this project is not just a biography of some famous person, you may only use one source from a biography database. Research to find and gather information on how your leader worked to become a recognized leader and how this person has demonstrated leadership in the field. You must also find information on the definition of leadership and key leadership skills, the role of individual accountability as it relates to leadership, and the process you might follow to develop leadership skills and become a leader.
For Week 5, you are to prepare an outline with a title page and a references page. This assignment will be scored out of 100 points. A thoughtfully-prepared outline will help you organize all of your ideas and establish a framework for your well-supported, meaningful research project.
Your outline should be one to two pages long and should cover all required elements of the project in a logical manner. Each body section of your outline must include cited, researched support from quality sources found in the academic databases.
You must use at least three sources now, though you will most l.

Data mining does not stand alone in businesses. It is unusually part of a larger business intelligence initiative. The goal is to uncover hidden patterns. Privacy concerns arise due to data mining techniques and goals. An example is when Google was facing a lawsuit in 2014 for scanning emails sent by students using Apps for Education. The claim was that Google's data mining practices violated the principles for students' educational privacy. This is just one example of many that shows the privacy implications of data mining.
What are some other examples of data-mining privacy violations? What are the possible implications of these violations?

David Freeman argues in Messy Desk Means Something’s Getting Do.docxtaminklsperaw
David Freeman argues in
“
Messy Desk Means Something’s Getting Done”, that although we often admire neat-freaks, it's often the disorganized who are the most productive. He says, “About two out three people in the U.S. feel shame or guilt over their messiness, and almost all of us think poorly of messy people and highly of the neat and organized.
”
He continues Sure, most of us are messy, but only moderately so, and we do just fine with it
-
other than feeling bad about it or getting grief from others. Once people start thinking about it, they realize there's often a good side to their messiness. Moderately messy people don't spend two or more hours a day straightening up, the way some of their neatnik friends and colleagues do. Their houses and cubicles feel friendlier, lived in and personalized. They've got the stuff they like at hand. They make serendipitous discoveries when they excavate through their piles. And, surprisingly, they usually know where everything is. Messy people let things spread out and stack up in ways that naturally suit the way they work and think. There's evidence that messy people are more improvisational, maintain more impressive workloads than their neatnik colleagues and reap other benefits from their relaxed sense of organization. *
*Freedman, David H. messy desk means something's getting done. Los Angeles Times 29 Jan. 2007: A20.
In a well-organized essay, discuss Freeman's thesis that messy people are more productive than neat people. Do you agree or disagree? In answering this question, you may want to describe your own organizational habits, and those of people you know. Specific details will probably make your essay more interesting and your argument more persuasive.

There's evidence that messy people are more improvisational, maintain more impressive workloads than their neatnik colleagues and reap other benefits from their relaxed sense of organization. *
*Freedman, David H. messy desk means something's getting done. Los Angeles Times 29 Jan. 2007: A20.
In a well-organized essay, discuss Freeman's thesis that messy people are more productive than neat people. Do you agree or disagree? In answering this question, you may want to describe your own organizational habits, and those of people you know. Specific details will probably make your essay more interesting and your argument more persuasive.

Data Analysis—Small Group DiscussionAs a nurse engaged in evidence.docxtaminklsperaw
Data Analysis—Small Group Discussion
As a nurse engaged in evidence-based practice, it is important to recognize how statistics and other data analysis tools are used to generate and assess evidence. Most nurses need only a foundational understanding of statistical tools and terminology to understand the majority of research studies. As a nurse, you should be able to recognize the most commonly used statistical tests, how and when they are used, and how significance is determined.
In this Discussion, you examine different types of statistics and statistical tests, when and why these particular tests would be selected for use, and, most importantly, what the results indicate.
To prepare:
·
Review the information in your assigned chapter (Chapter 23, “Qualitative Data Analysis”)
Polit, D. F., & Beck, C. T. (2012).
Nursing research: Generating and assessing evidence for nursing practice
(Laureate Education, Inc., custom ed.).
Philadelphia, PA: Lippincott Williams & Wilkins.
·
Develop a 1-page study sheet that includes the following:
o
The key concepts of the chapter: Focus on the basic concepts that are important for nurses to understand as they review research studies.
Discuss why it is important for nurses to understand the basics of these statistical methods.
o
A description of the statistical methods covered in the chapter, what they measure, and under what circumstances they are used. Identify examples of how the statistical methods have been used in research studies.
o
An explanation of the key statistical tests and how they measure significance (if applicable).

Chapter 23, “Qualitative Data Analysis”
The focus of this chapter is qualitative data analysis, which is more difficult in some ways than quantitative analysis, because there are not specific tests that can be used. Instead, much of the analysis is based on the researcher’s ability to identify patterns of behavior or similarities in events. Suggestions are provided for analysis of each of the major types of qualitative studies and how to document findings.

Current Issue Critical ThinkingRead the following excerp.docxtaminklsperaw
Current Issue Critical Thinking
Read the following excerpt from "Understanding Digital Kids (DKs): Technology & Learning in the New Digital Landscape," an article regarding learning today:
Recently, there were two recent cover stories in Time Magazine: Their conclusion was that children today are different. In fact, based on what we now know from the neurosciences and psychological sciences, what we’re now beginning to understand is that children today are FUNDAMENTALLY different than we are in the way they think, in the way they access, absorb, interpret, process and use information, and in the way they view, interact, and communicate in the modern world because of their experiences with digital technologies. If this is the case, it holds profound implications for all of us personally and professionally (Jukes, 2008, p. 14).
Reflect on this selection and respond to the following questions:
•What are your thoughts on this statement?
•Do you feel today’s learner has a different way of learning than in the past?
Defend your position.
•In your future role, how will you use this information?
•What implications does this have for your future role?

•Summary of the resource
•How it supports language acquisition in children
•How you will use it specifically for your future professional role
•An APA-formatted reference of the source so your peers can access and review it

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

business structures require continuous introduction of
innovation, effective information technology to ensure
sustainable long-term market benefits, as well as their rational
functioning. The implementation of the digital business model
is
one of the promising areas, which makes it possible to realize
28. the
activity of enterprises even more productively. The digital
business model allows businesses to react more responsibly to
the needs of potential buyers and customers, and also helps
adapt and optimize business processes over a certain period of
time to certain market conditions. That is why, the purpose of
the article is to identify the peculiarities of the influence of
digital technology on the transformation of existing business
models of organizations. In view of this, an in-depth analysis of
the main stages of the development of a roadmap for the digital
transformation of business has been carried out; business
process management software products and the most suitable
ones have been examined. The article studies digital
technologies
in the context of enterprise business groups and reflects how
relevant technologies affect the transformation of the existing
linear business model into the digital business model and
reflects
the most significant effects for business.
Keywords—information technology, digital economy, digital
technologies, information management system, digital business
model, business processes, BPM, business process management,
CRM, ERP.
I. INTRODUCTION
In this digital era, the pace of change is extremely
frustrating and each organization encounters existential
threats from new and existing competitors. In the era of the
Industrial Revolution 4.0, technology is the right of any
company to change its own business model so as to
differentiate itself from the entire world market.
The competitiveness of business structures is shaped by
the use of digital technologies, the application of the
29. information management system, reengineering and the
transformation of existing business processes into new digital
business models.
Digitalization is the use of digital technologies to change
the business model and provide new revenue and value-
producing opportunities; it is the process of moving to a
digital business [1-7].
The problem of the development of the digital economy
and the transformational processes taking place in society
under the influence of digitization has received a lot of
attention among both foreign authors [1-2, 10-12] and
Ukrainian researchers [3, 5-6], etc.

(Source: Author’s interpretation based on: Gartner)
Despite numerous scientific studies on the development
of information and communication technologies and the
digital economy, we consider that the issues of the impact of
digital technology on the transformation of existing business
models of the organization are insufficiently examined.
II. PROBLEM ANALYSIS AND MARKET TRENDS
On the one hand, in the market of information
technologies and services, there are already a lot of software
products (world and domestic) that are largely able to fill the
gaps in information technology companies. Domestic
business is in search of suitable technologies for business
automation, is familiar with the best European and world
practices of digital transformation.
The development of information technology (systems) of
management for a particular business is a project for the
31. produced (consolidation of certain sectors of the business
model).
The fulfilment of all these tasks is impossible without the
integration of information systems and technologies into the
business sphere.
We offer to consider achievement of these three tasks
through the prism of business processes of the organization
using certain information technologies (digital instruments)
(Table 1).

Using chat bots to communicate
with customers;
Forming funnel sales;
Connecting a virtual or
complementary reality to a
shopping mall, collecting
customer data.
One of the possible options for an effective and efficient
organizational information support system for the enterprise
is a system that is integrated with the technology of
operational management of business processes.

34. III. SOFTWARE TOOLS FOR MODELING BUSINESS
PROCESS
It is necessary to use informational products that enable
us to simulate business business processes, the so-called "As
Is" model (the “How It Is” Business Processes Model), which
will allow you to see “weak areas” in business, build a new
business model of business-processes, that is, model “To Be”.
These information products will allow you to structure and
automate business processes (reengineering business
processes) of the enterprise.
In the IT market there is a differentiated set of BPM
systems. That is why as the basis for the study «Gartner magic
quadrant bpm tools, 2018» [13] was considered and other
researches [11, 14]. All the information is systematized in
table 2 where TOP 10 BPM-systems are listed and their
characteristics are provided.

Each of the above systems deserves attention. However,
we offer in practical examples a more detailed analysis of the
most suitable software products. The following perspectives
are taken into account: the features of the system, prices and
simplicity of its use (Erwin Business Process, Bitrix24,
Bizagi BPM, ELMA BPM, Pegasystems, Bonita BPM).
(Erwin Business Process, Bitrix24, Bizagi BPM, ELMA
BPM, Pegasystems, Bonita BPM).
IV. PRACTICAL RESULTS
After the practical use of these six BPM systems, we have
chosen two systems that are cost-effective, the most simple
and easy to use.
The advantages of BPM system Erwin Business
Process:
1. Clear, standard, and concise representation of the
elements. To ensure the unity of representing elements of data
models in ERwin, standardized representations of object
names, standardized data types, and standard model samples
(reference models) are used. Visual representation of large
data arrays. Due to the powerful graphic system and
navigation system (IDEF0, IDEF3, DFD);
41. 2. The ability to interact with users. ERwin provides
various opportunities for sharing information among all
members within an organization. Collaborative work with
Depositary Users. ERwin provides automatic version control,
access control, conflict management, and model modification
to work together effectively. At the expense of the web portal,
business analysts, technical specialists and others can access
data models in understandable configurations for them;
335
3. Application of open architecture. ERwin provides
extensive integration opportunities with other process
modeling and information system development tools (more
than 120 different tools).
Fig. 4. BPM for Agroholding Mriya (IDEF0, IDEF3)
BPM ELMA system has a sophisticated yet clear
interface. It is distributed in three versions intended for
organizations with different needs and staff numbers. In
addition, there is a free version for five jobs, which makes it
possible to use it fully in the activities of small businesses
(Fig. 5).
When an enterprise establishes the necessary
configuration of all business processes and coordinates it with
the organizational system, it is at this stage that makes it
possible to decide on the application of certain digital
technologies in the context of different groups of business
processes.

Mriya»
42. (system BPM ELMA, BPMN)
It is precisely the implementation of certain information
management systems in the existing business model that will
lead to data transformation and the emergence of a new
digital business model (Fig. 6).

business models

With the use of modern information technology business
transforms into a new business model and receives significant
benefits:
- access to new markets;
- added value of the product through technology
- intensification and automation of existing business
processes;
- consolidation of key resources (6), key activities (5),
customer relationships (4) and sales channels (3) in integrated
digital business processes based on certain digital systems
(platforms);
- change of business culture;
- formation of a single ecosystem;
- intelligent analytics and forecasting;
- effective cooperation with clients, customers and
43. partners;
- optimization of system management (including
reduction of funds);
- acceleration of economic cycles;
- efficient use and release of production and warehouse
capacities as a result of reduction.
V. CONCLUSIONS
It is determined that the emergence of the digital economy
has opened new opportunities for the development of
business structures.
New digital technologies have affected the transformation
of existing business models of organizations. Digital business
models have begun to penetrate large and small companies in
different sectors.
That is why in the article the features of application of
modern information technologies in the context of groups of
business. That is why in the article the features of application
of modern information technologies in the context of groups
of business processes and components of business models of
the organization are explored. In view of this, an in-depth
analysis of the main stages of the development of a roadmap
for the digital transformation of business has been carried out;
business process management software products and the most
suitable ones have been examined. The research reflects how
relevant technologies affect the transformation of the existing
linear business model into the digital business model and
discovers the most significant effects for business.
In a future version of this article, we intend to propose to
consider current models and methodologies for calculating
44. the digital transformation index of EU countries and the
world. We will analyze the general structure of the indicators,
we will pay special attention to the analysis of indicators of
the index of digital transformation of business structures and,
based on this, we will work towards adapting and developing
our own methods and methodologies for digital
transformation for the domestic economy and business
structures.

AES Coursework Assessment Brief
What
Coursework 1:
In this assessment, you will:
- design an essay title related to your subject of study.
- find five additional reliable sources related to your essay.
- write an annotated reference for two of your sources, outlining
how the source is relevant to your essay (what useful
information, arguments, data or examples it provides) and how
75. you found the source (eg. via Google Scholar, the University
library, from a reading list, following up on a reference in
another article)
- write a brief source evaluation for three further sources,
outlining how you have identified the source as suitable for
academic use.
- identify three main points which are useful from each of the
three sources, and the supporting evidence provided.
- note the part of the essay for which the points are useful.
- note the conclusions you have drawn from your reading on the
topic.
This coursework is the first stage of your AES coursework
portfolio. You will be required to present and answer questions
on your research in CW 2, and write a research-based essay of
2500 words in CW 3. There is no word limit for CW 1. You can
write in note-form, as you are not marked for the accuracy of
your language, but you must use your own words. You cannot
demonstrate your understanding of the sources you have read if
you copy from the text.
Why
CW 1 tests your ability to research and plan an extended
research essay by:
- analysing an essay title and answering it with relevant points
and ideas.
- finding useful, credible academic sources to inform your ideas
in answering the question.
- reading and identifying relevant information for your essay.
- identifying the main points and supporting evidence in
sources.
- draw conclusions from your reading.
- integrating your own ideas with ideas from your sources.
- discussing your conclusions in a tutorial.
This assessment counts for 40% of your final mark for reading.
When
Stage 1) [ENTER DATE] Complete the CW 1 planning
76. document and show it to your tutor for approval. This ensures
you have understood the requirements of the essay question
correctly, and that your choice of sources is appropriate before
you go any further.
Stage 2) [ENTER DATE] Go through the CW 1 Checklistand
Feedback Sheet to make sure you have completed the
assessment fully and correctly, and submit the draft of your
source report.
Stage 3) [ENTER DATE] Your tutor will provide feedback on
your draft in a tutorial. Make notes of your tutor’s comments on
the CW 1 Checklistand Feedback Sheet. Your tutor will advise
you on whether your submission is acceptable as a piece of
academic work, or if further work is needed. You will also be
asked in the tutorial to talk through your research so far and
show the sources you have found.
Stage 4) [ENTER DATE] Submit your CW 1.
How
Your work is submitted and marked electronically. Your tutor
will give you the marking criteria and samples of student
submissions so that you can see how the assessment is marked.
Your work will automatically be checked by similarity software
(Turnitin) to make sure you have submitted work in your own
words. You may be able to submit your work ahead of the
submission deadline in order to check the similarity score.
What if…
I don’t choose relevant or reliable sources?
- Your tutor will check your sources before you write your first
draft. Make sure you have used the best source of information
(if you find some interesting data reported in a newspaper,
follow up on the original source, rather than just citing the
newspaper, for example).
- Use the sources you are given as a starting point; follow up on
references mentioned in the texts, consult reading lists for your
subject and ask in the library for help finding relevant material.
my similarity score on Turnitin is high?
First, check your similarity report. Any wording on the template
77. will be picked up as plagiarism, so your tutor will not count
that. Check whether chunks of your writing have been
highlighted in the report; this indicates you have not
paraphrased effectively. Poor paraphrasing is a form of
plagiarism, and will result in your work being reported for
academic misconduct. You should therefore revise your work
and resubmit it before the assessment deadline. This assessment
requires you to identify and summarise key points from the text
in your own words; you should not just use direct quotations
from sources in this assessment.
You can find further information on the Academic Misconduct
process in your Student Handbook.
I submit the coursework late?
If you submit an assessment late, a penalty will be applied to
your final mark. The penalties for late submission are outlined
in your Student Handbook.
I don’t pass CW 1?
You should submit a draft of CW 1 so that your tutor can
provide you with feedback to improve your work before you
submit it.
You will need a minimum score for your overall reading mark
in order to meet your progression requirements. If you score
below 40% on CW 1, you may be required to resubmit at the
end of the module. If your CW 1 needs improvement or
development, you can resubmit a re-working of your original
submission. If you are awarded zero due to Academic
Misconduct (ie. you have submitted work which is not your
own), you will be given a new essay title to research and plan.
I don’t submit CW 1?
You must submit complete all three components of the module
in order to demonstrate that you have met all the learning
outcomes. Your final mark may be withheld if your assessments
are incomplete. If you are unable to submit CW 1 by the
deadline, you will need to apply for mitigating circumstances.
Further information on mitigating circumstances can be found in
your student handbook.
78. I miss part of CW 1?
If you only submit part of CW 1 (you complete the first two
annotated references, but not the source evaluation part, for
example) your work will be penalised according to the marking
criteria. In this example, you would be awarded zero for Source
Evaluation andUse of Sources, and Processing Text.
Can I…
use sources that I am reading for my subject?
Yes. You should not submit the same assessment for two
modules, as this is academic misconduct, but you are able to use
material you are reading in your subject module in the AES
Coursework.

How far are the claims that zoos do not prioritise animal
welfare and conservation valid?
You can write in note form, but make sure it is clear what the
key points / arguments you are going to cover are.
- Who are the critics? Are they scientists?
- What are the main criticisms of zoos? What is the evidence
base for the criticisms?
- What are the main effects on animals in captivity in terms of
the space they live in? Is it dependent on the animal or the
environment?
- What are the main effects on animals in captivity of human
interaction? Does human presence bother animals in the same
way? What is the issue – noise? smell? physical contact?
- Are there issues when animals are in captivity and then are put
80. back into the wild?
- Have zoos done anything to improve conditions and respond to
criticisms? Is there evidence that the measures have been
effective?
- What are the positives of zoos / captivity? Conservation /
education. Would animals be negatively affected if there were
no zoos?
You don’t need to decide what your position is yet; this will be
informed by your reading, but if your title asks for a position,
you should show that you plan to include it.

This source is relevant because...
it offers a comprehensive overview of the topic. The books has
chapters on several aspects of zoo management in terms of their
housing, breeding, feeding, etc. from both welfare and
regulation perpectives. Chapter 13 looks at the effects of human
visitors on zoo animals, Chapter 10 focusses on the value of
zoos in conservation and chapter 14 outlines areas where further
research is needed. The book is aimed at those studying or
working in the field, so is accessible but research-based.

This source is relevant because...
it presents the argument that today’s zoos are now the lifeline of
a number of species. The article explains that due to human
interference and the resulting loss of land and biodiversity, zoos
and parks are becoming the only viable way to protect animals.
The article presents research from the World Association of
Zoos and Aquariums that suggests that greater resource should
be invested in the conservation work carried out by zoos and
parks. Conway presents and an interesting perspective that
while zoos may not be ideal, they may be essential in stopping
significant numbers of animal species going extinct due to
human activity and climate change.

Relevant points from the text
Supporting evidence / example/ data in the text
Modern zoos have five primary goals: animal welfare,
conservation, education of the public and entertainment
Add the page numbers for your evidence as it will help you find
it when you are writing your essay. Make sure you note any
secondary citations so that you can reference accurately later.
· p2 -The majority of visitors come for entertainment (Altman,
1998; Reade & Waren, 1996) but without the element of
entertainment, zoos would be unable to achieve their other
goals. The entertainment factor is essential in generating
income and raising awareness of conservation.
- p4 - Anderson et al. (2003); Hosey (2005) – entertainment
ensures that visitors visit zoos repeatedly – this generates
revenue for conservation and animal care.
- p2 - Anderson et al. (2003); Hosey (2005) – study shows time
people spend with animals leads to positive perceptions of
animals, which leads to an increased support for conservation
projects.
89. Visitor effects on animals: Noisy crowds negatively affect
animal behaviour: measured by changes in behaviour and
physiology.
Changes in behaviour:
· p5 - Mallapur & Chellam (2002) - Leopards increased ‘pacing’
when the zoo was extremely busy. Interpreted as an attempt to
maintain distance from visitors, possible attempt to escape.
· p5 - Birke (2002) - Orangutans covered their heads with paper
sacks and infants held onto their mothers significantly more
with large group of visitors
· p5 - Chamove et al. (1988) - Tamarins, Diana monkeys, ring-
tailed lemurs and mandrills - increase in aggression and a
decrease in grooming, inactivity when visitors were present.
Changes in physiology:
· p5 - Davis et al, (2005) Spider Monkeys - measure stress by
via urinary cortisol levels indicates positive correlation between
cortisol levels and visitor numbers.
Modifying animals’ living space / interaction with visitors can
mitigate some of the negative effects of human presence.
- Most studies suggest that zoo visitors produce stress, but
Margulis et al. (2003); Nimon & Dalziel (1992) suggest that
animals may adjust and become accustomed to zoo visitors.as
expected.p6- Anderson et al. (2002); Davis et al. (2005) -
Exhibits design to be ‘naturalistic’ and provide retreats to give
the animals some control in stressful situations.
- p5 - Anderson et al. (2002) - African pygmy goats and
Romanov sheep - an increase in ‘petting zoo’ visitors led to
aggressive and escape behaviour as the animals found it
difficult to form distance from humans. When a retreat space
was provided, undesirable behaviours were reduced.
- p6 - Blaney Wells (2004); Wells (2005) - Gorillas - less
aggressive and less abnormal behaviour when camouflage
netting was installed.

91. This article is useful for the part of my essay focussing on
whether zoos play a key role in animal conservation. (P2) The
information and evidence in this source has helped me
determine that the scientific community does not necessarily
agree with the view of zoos as simply a source of entertainment.
Relevant points from the text
Supporting evidence / example/ data in the text
Captive breeding may be the only way to save some animals by
counteracting or reducing the threat of extinction.
- p1 - Thibault et al. (2001) Captive breeding has the
potential to protect animal populations against threats like
disease or pressure from non-native species (e.g. egg predators
on islands) until reintroduction into the wild is possible.
- p1 - Other example of species saved from near extinction:
- Van Dierendonck & Wallis de Vries (1996) - Wild horse
- Belant et al.(2010) - Black footed ferret
- Meretsky et al.(2000) - California Condor
Captive breeding is not without problems – it may cause other
issues, such as hybridisation.
- p1- Barnett et al. (2006) - Facilities need to be in place to
avoid technical difficulties such as hybridisation when species
are managed together in order to reduce costs.
Further issues with captive breeding occur when animals are
released into the wild; they are more vulnerable to poachers as
their survival skills are comprised. However, some zoos are
providing animal training programmes to counteract this.
- p1 - Spalton et al. (1999); Morell (2008) - Poaching is a
problem when animals are released, for example the
reintroduction of Arabian Oryx in central Oman where local
communities were not sufficiently involved in conservation.
92. - p1 - Barnett et al. (2006) - The ability of animals to learn
crucial skills that allow them to survive in the wild (e.g., fear of
humans or predators) may be compromised.
- p1 – Possible solution - White et al. (2005) – Discusses the
establishment of training programs in zoos to prepare animals
for survival – eg. Puerto Rican parrots which are unable to
escape predators in the wild - problem solved by ‘pre-release
aviary-based stimulation and exercise program.’

This article helps in the first part of my essay, where I will
address the concerns around animal welfare (P1). It also
provides useful information for the section on the effect of
physical space / environment (P5).
Relevant points from the text
Supporting evidence / example/ data in the text
A key issue around the discussion of animal welfare is the lack
of an international standard, and also disparity between the
needs of different animals; this makes the establishment of a
‘standard’ problematic.
- Duncan (1981) – A new perspective of animal welfare is
that welfare refers to a characteristic of the individual animal.
- Hill & Broom (2009); Koene (2013) - Animals in zoos
come from a variety of backgrounds, with differing life
experiences and ability to reaction to challenges. For example,
an animal that stays in zoos its whole life and one that is
94. temporarily resident until reintroduced to the wild require
different skills or another example of an animal brought into an
urban zoo from a semi-free-ranging facility or vice versa.
Efforts have been made to establish a system of measuring
animal welfare in captivity: ‘animal-based’ and ‘resource-
based’ (Blokhuis 2008)
- p3 - Blokhuis (2008) - ‘Animal-based welfare’ focuses on
the physical, behavioural, and mental state of the animals and is
measured from the animals’ perspectives, which can be
scientifically challenging i.e. mental state.
‘Resource-based welfare’ focuses on natural history such as
the amount of space, temperature, diet, and veterinary care.
- Maslow’s hierarchy addressed Animal Rights and results in an
animal retaining and encouraging natural abilities. The
foundations for survival include physiologic needs for shelter,
water, and hygiene. Followed by the animals’ physical health
and safety needs. Finally, welfare-related activities, such as
social needs, mental stimulation, and choice.
www.waza.org/en/site/home p.4
One approach to addressing animal welfare is designing animals
spaces based on species
· p3 - Kagan & Veasey (2010) – ‘Exhibit design’ must be
species-specific, incorporate appropriate space; environmental
enrichment, natural exercise and social interactions with other
animals in the location. As outlined in Blokhuis (2008) resource
based welfare.
· p5 - Kagan & Veasey (2010) – A priority for the welfare of an
animal in captivity is that the animal should be able to perform
and behave as they would in a natural environment / the wild.
· p1 - Mench & Kreger (1996) - It is the responsibility of the
zoo to demonstrate a current and up to date knowledge of
95. animals’ needs by providing a suitable environment.
Conclusions drawn from your reading
· There are valid criticisms of zoos – particularly in countries
where regulation is weak or unclear, but there is evidence that
many zoos have invested research and resources into mitigating
against welfare issues.
· Research suggests that there are significant benefits to animal
conservation through being kept in captivity.
· The scientific community are very aware of the challenges
presented by keeping animals in captivity and are working
collaboratively to find solutions.
· There is evidence that the situation it is improving all the time
due to growing awareness of animal needs and support for
conservation projects.
