The document discusses several topics related to ethics in internet research. It begins by discussing how internet research allows for a global reach but also comes with great responsibility. It notes that while the internet can enable medical advances and learning, it can also enable harmful activities like terrorism. The document then discusses how institutional review boards need specific guidelines for internet research to maintain integrity. It also examines advantages and disadvantages of internet research, such as lower costs but lack of control over settings. Finally, it discusses how ethics must be considered as internet research grows given differing privacy standards globally.

After reading this journal article regarding
ethics of internet research, I have discovered different viewpoints of research and determined some ethical concerns.
As this type of “web-based” research grows, researchers will face ethical concerns that are different from traditional research ethical issues, (Denissen, Neumann & Van Zalk, 2010)
The main attribute of internet research, as I see it, is the ability to have a global footprint; meaning almost any one that has a computer and connectivity can access all types of information and data. Along with this power, comes great responsibility. The web can be a wonderful tool which can afford individuals, organizations, communities, and others tremendous access into good and bad places. This access can afford humans into medical breakthroughs, how to guides on repairs and building, how to get from city to city, and a multitude of positive ways to learn and grow.
Internet research use is growing at a fast pace and consequently, is creating ethical dilemmas.
At the same time, it can be a way to link terrorists’ organizations, promote child pornography etc. As you can see, internet research can be used for the greater good, or to our detriment.
This is where the ethics comes into play, and guidelines are set up to monitor ethical issues which occur due to this process. Institutional Review Boards at institutions conducting this type of
research
need specific guidelines for researchers to follow in order to maintain the integrity of
research.

With the rapid increase of technology has come tremendous opportunity. Information is more easily accessible than ever before, which also creates ethical concerns. This week’s lecture describes research that is ethical as one “that the researchers are protecting the privacy of the participants and any research data collected about them.” The journal article, “The Ethics of Internet Research” examines internet research and the ethical issues that arise.
The advantages of internet research over traditional methods are that it is less costly, less of a time commitment, more controlled by the researcher, higher accuracy in data collection, and the ability to easily provide follow up and feedback (Williams, 2012). In a lot of aspects, internet research can be more efficient and less costly. However, there are many disadvantages that the article addresses on internet research. One is lack of control over the test setting (Williams, 2012). It is difficult to verify if the subject is in fact who they .

Abstract
Research conducted on the internet is a cost effective form of recruitment, data
collection, and analysis. Researchers can access individuals worldwide for studies
in remote areas where there is a lack of or inability to conduct research. With this
opportunity come ethical concerns such as determining a safe environment to take
a survey, research in a virtual environment, data security, confidentiality, and
performing secondary analysis on archived support group information.
Researchers should be aware of laws regarding minors and respect the core
ethical principles of beneficence, respect for persons and justice. Institutional
Review Boards at institutions conducting this type of research need specific
guidelines for researchers to follow in order to maintain the integrity of research. It
is important for future nurse researchers to incorporate new therapeutic models
and specific steps to protect the public when participating in internet research.

Introduction
The Internet or World Wide Web is changing the way people function on a daily basis. As of September 2010,
76% of Americans had either a laptop or desktop computer (Pew Internet American Life Project, 2010). Smith
(2011) identifies that 35% of Americans own a smart phone in a study conducted by the Pew Internet American
Life Project. Similarly, Kim (2011) states that “by the end of 2014, one in every three Americans, or 90 million
users is expected to have a tablet” (p.1). This capability to communicate with others online has opened many
opportunities for a researcher to recruit study participants and to collect data (Longo, 2010). An example of this
technology is tracking the progress of clients with chronic illnesses or following clients involved in longitudinal
research studies (MobileActive.org, 2012). As this type of “web-based” research grows, researchers will face
ethical concerns that are different from traditional research ethical issues (Denissen, Neumann & Van Zalk,
2010). The purpose of this article is to discuss the topic of internet research and the ethical issues that emerge
because of this process. The review of literature will present different views of this area of research and specific
ethical concerns. The article will include strategies to address these ethical issues and the status and future
directions of internet research.

An Introduction to Data Ethics
MODULE AUTHOR:

1. What do we mean when we talk about ‘ethics’?
Ethics in the broadest sense refers to the concern that humans have always had for figuring out
how best to live. The philosopher Socrates is quoted as saying in 399 B.C. that “the most important
thing is not life, but the good life.”2 We would all like to avoid a bad life, one that is shameful
and sad, fundamentally lacking in worthy achievements, unredeemed by love, kindness, beauty,
friendship, courage, honor, joy, or grace. Yet what is the best way to obtain the opposite of this
– a life that is not only acceptable, but even excellent and worthy of admiration? How do we
identify a good life, one worth choosing from among all the different ways of living that lay open
to us? This is the question that the study of ethics attempts to answer.
Today, the study of ethics can be found in many different places. As an academic field of study,
it belongs primarily to the discipline of philosophy, where it is studied either on a theoretical
level (‘what is the best theory of the good life?’) or on a practical, applied level as will be our
focus (‘how should we act in this or that situation, based upon our best theories of ethics?’). In
community life, ethics is pursued through diverse cultural, religious, or regional/local ideals and
practices, through which particular groups give their members guidance about how best to live.
This political aspect of ethics introduces questions about power, justice, and responsibility. On a
personal level, ethics can be found in an individual’s moral reflection and continual strivings to
become a better person. In work life, ethics is often formulated in formal codes or standards to
which all members of a profession are held, such as those of medical or legal ethics. Professional
ethics is also taught in dedicated courses, such as business ethics. ...

Social Networking Channels

SOCIAL NETWORKING CHANNELS 1
I dislike social networking sites because of the dangerous hazards connected to it.
The ProCon article vividly describes the numerous benefits that are attached to the social networking sites such as connecting people, enhancing advertising and marketing, promoting research and education, assisting to spread information faster as compared to other media, connecting employers and employees and assisting the government to identify and prosecute criminals. These are just a few examples that the article illustrates to support the necessity of the social networking sites in the society today. According to the article, the social networking channels have significantly transformed different sectors such as businesses for the better since they can sell their products and services globally (Procon.org, 2018).
However, the detrimental effects connected with the social networking channels are also numerous and most of them may lead to permanent damage to our lives. It is very clear that the education is the backbone of our lives and also the key to success. Currently, about 69% of the American population use social media channels which is a drastic increase in the usage from 2008 where about 26% of the Americans were connected to the social media (Procon.org, 2018). Most of the social networking sites users are the youths who are in their lower grade level, colleges or even universities. The research shows that using social media when handling assignments decreases the quality of work and makes the students drop in their performance. Education is a core value to a successful life and allowing social media to intrude in the academics will be detrimental since it will lead to the production of incompetent individuals who may end up causing problems in the society (Rowell, 2015).
Moreover, the social media channels expose individuals’ to privacy problems and intrusion by any interested parties. In fact, nothing which is shared in the social media channels is private. According to the survey conducted, 81% of the people surveyed believed that social media is insecure. The government through the NSA (National Security Agencies) intrudes to people’s data and communication in social media meaning that their private information ends up in the hands of the government. Many people do not know about social media privacy settings and this means that they leave their social media accounts prone to invasion (Procon.org, 2018). Viruses such as Steck. Evl can also be propagated via the social media to cause harm to the users. Most of these viruses are spies and send users priv.

The Internet has significantly changed the way people
conduct business, communicate, and live. In this article, the
authors’ focus is on how the Internet influences the practice
of psychology as it relates to testing and assessment. The
report includes 5 broad sections: background and context,
new problems yet old issues, issues for special populations,
ethical and professional issues, and recommendations for
the future. Special attention is paid to implications for
people with disabling conditions and culturally and lin-
guistically diverse persons. The authors conclude that eth-
ical responsibilities of psychologists and current psycho-
metric standards, particularly those regarding test
reliability and validity, apply even though the way in which
the tests are developed and used may be quite different.
At their spring and fall 2000 meetings, members ofthe Committee on Psychological Tests and As-sessment (CPTA) discussed issues related to psy-
chological testing and assessment on the Internet. They
recognized that as psychological test instruments become
more readily available via the Internet, issues arise con-
cerning, for example, test reliability, validity, administra-
tion, item security, and test-taker confidentiality. Members
of CPTA’s parent boards—the Board of Scientific Affairs
(BSA), the Board of Professional Affairs (BPA), the Board
of Educational Affairs, and the Board for the Advancement
of Psychology in the Public Interest—reviewed and en-
dorsed the idea of creating a task force to examine these
issues. Specifically, BSA and BPA members agreed that it
was important for the American Psychological Association
(APA) to be a leader in discussing new and emerging
technologies in psychological testing, assessment, and re-
search and in providing information about Internet-based
testing and related issues. They noted that a jointly spon-
sored BSA–BPA task force on Internet-based testing would
complement other APA groups focusing on related issues.
The Task Force on Psychological Testing on the Internet
was therefore formed, with a broad mission of reviewing
current practices on Internet-based psychological testing
and determining psychometric, ethical, legal, and practical
implications of this approach to testing particularly for
individuals from culturally and linguistically diverse
populations.
Task force members were chosen to reflect expertise
across a broad range of testing areas (e.g., educational,
school, employment, forensic, career–vocational, clinical,
cross-cultural, neuropsychological), to be knowledgeable
in Internet technology, and to represent the concerns ...

Literature Review
Since the introduction of electronic devices, the world has shifted into a new technological era with great assistance from the development of the internet. The technology then became more portable and commercial, which made the mechanisms more accessible, affordable and evidently more desirable. The popularity of these internet associated devices rose quickly and still continue to rise, as it becomes the norm for individuals to own at least one electronic device. The purpose of these devices it to assist with an individual’s daily task along with many more possibilities, and because of its influential power, questions like how it affected with the development of humans in the modern era begin to surface.
The purpose of this study is to discover how the interactions and communications between humans have evolved since the involvement of internet and electronic technology. This topic has peaked interest of many researchers, and popular themes concerning the topic includes relationships and intimacy between individuals via the internet from computers and phones. Some previous research that has been chosen to be used as references all follow along a similar pattern, regarding the sample size and diversity, methodology, and theoretical influences.
One method that is popular to the researchers in the field of sociology is known as Ethnography, which is “the systematic description of human behaviour and organizational culture based on first-hand observation” (Howard, 2002, p.553). But because of the new technological advancement, using such a traditional procedure may be unable to fully analyze the subject. One research decided to adapt to the technologic subject and develop a different form of Ethnography to accommodate any flaws the tradition method had; the new methodology is called Network Ethnography.
Network ethnography involves with passive or active observation, extended immersion, and in-depth interviews, following the processes of ethnographical research methods. The contribution Network ethnography provides is that it does not limit the researcher into choosing territorial field sites, but also has the opportunity to select multiple social networks as field sites.
Another reason why they believe Network Ethnography is a valid method of examining social behaviour and different technological mediums is that a researcher can manage sample bias whether it be extreme, snowball or any other sampling method. The reason being is that “snowball sampling for example, does not allow the researcher to control the direction of sample growth, but social network analysis will identify some of the most significant informants in the network (Howard, 2002 pg 562).” Researchers can use the in.
In this session, we talk about the mobile and social web, and how it shapes economy, individual behavior and well-being, political events, and society as a whole.

Social Networking Channels
Thomas Lamonte Esters

SOCIAL NETWORKING CHANNELS 1
I dislike social networking sites because of the dangerous hazards connected to it.
The ProCon article vividly describes the numerous benefits that are attached to the social networking sites such as connecting people, enhancing advertising and marketing, promoting research and education, assisting to spread information faster as compared to other media, connecting employers and employees and assisting the government to identify and prosecute criminals. These are just a few examples that the article illustrates to support the necessity of the social networking sites in the society today. According to the article, the social networking channels have significantly transformed different sectors such as businesses for the better since they can sell their products and services globally (Procon.org, 2018).
However, the detrimental effects connected with the social networking channels are also numerous and most of them may lead to permanent damage to our lives. It is very clear that the education is the backbone of our lives and also the key to success. Currently, about 69% of the American population use social media channels which is a drastic increase in the usage from 2008 where about 26% of the Americans were connected to the social media (Procon.org, 2018). Most of the social networking sites users are the youths who are in their lower grade level, colleges or even universities. The research shows that using social media when handling assignments decreases the quality of work and makes the students drop in their performance. Education is a core value to a successful life and allowing social media to intrude in the academics will be detrimental since it will lead to the production of incompetent individuals who may end up causing problems in the society (Rowell, 2015).
Moreover, the social media channels expose individuals’ to privacy problems and intrusion by any interested parties. In fact, nothing which is shared in the social media channels is private. According to the survey conducted, 81% of the people surveyed believed that social media is insecure. The government through the NSA (National Security Agencies) intrudes to people’s data and communication in social media meaning that their private information ends up in the hands of the government. Many people do not know about social media privacy settings and this means that they leave their social media accounts prone to invasion (Procon.org, 2018). Viruses such as Steck. Evl can also be propagated via the social media to cause harm to the users. Most of these viruses are spies and send users priv.

The Internet has significantly changed the way people
conduct business, communicate, and live. In this article, the
authors’ focus is on how the Internet influences the practice
of psychology as it relates to testing and assessment. The
report includes 5 broad sections: background and context,
new problems yet old issues, issues for special populations,
ethical and professional issues, and recommendations for
the future. Special attention is paid to implications for
people with disabling conditions and culturally and lin-
guistically diverse persons. The authors conclude that eth-
ical responsibilities of psychologists and current psycho-
metric standards, particularly those regarding test
reliability and validity, apply even though the way in which
the tests are developed and used may be quite different.
At their spring and fall 2000 meetings, members ofthe Committee on Psychological Tests and As-sessment (CPTA) discussed issues related to psy-
chological testing and assessment on the Internet. They
recognized that as psychological test instruments become
more readily available via the Internet, issues arise con-
cerning, for example, test reliability, validity, administra-
tion, item security, and test-taker confidentiality. Members
of CPTA’s parent boards—the Board of Scientific Affairs
(BSA), the Board of Professional Affairs (BPA), the Board
of Educational Affairs, and the Board for the Advancement
of Psychology in the Public Interest—reviewed and en-
dorsed the idea of creating a task force to examine these
issues. Specifically, BSA and BPA members agreed that it
was important for the American Psychological Association
(APA) to be a leader in discussing new and emerging
technologies in psychological testing, assessment, and re-
search and in providing information about Internet-based
testing and related issues. They noted that a jointly spon-
sored BSA–BPA task force on Internet-based testing would
complement other APA groups focusing on related issues.
The Task Force on Psychological Testing on the Internet
was therefore formed, with a broad mission of reviewing
current practices on Internet-based psychological testing
and determining psychometric, ethical, legal, and practical
implications of this approach to testing particularly for
individuals from culturally and linguistically diverse
populations.
Task force members were chosen to reflect expertise
across a broad range of testing areas (e.g., educational,
school, employment, forensic, career–vocational, clinical,
cross-cultural, neuropsychological), to be knowledgeable
in Internet technology, and to represent the concerns ...

Literature Review
Since the introduction of electronic devices, the world has shifted into a new technological era with great assistance from the development of the internet. The technology then became more portable and commercial, which made the mechanisms more accessible, affordable and evidently more desirable. The popularity of these internet associated devices rose quickly and still continue to rise, as it becomes the norm for individuals to own at least one electronic device. The purpose of these devices it to assist with an individual’s daily task along with many more possibilities, and because of its influential power, questions like how it affected with the development of humans in the modern era begin to surface.
The purpose of this study is to discover how the interactions and communications between humans have evolved since the involvement of internet and electronic technology. This topic has peaked interest of many researchers, and popular themes concerning the topic includes relationships and intimacy between individuals via the internet from computers and phones. Some previous research that has been chosen to be used as references all follow along a similar pattern, regarding the sample size and diversity, methodology, and theoretical influences.
One method that is popular to the researchers in the field of sociology is known as Ethnography, which is “the systematic description of human behaviour and organizational culture based on first-hand observation” (Howard, 2002, p.553). But because of the new technological advancement, using such a traditional procedure may be unable to fully analyze the subject. One research decided to adapt to the technologic subject and develop a different form of Ethnography to accommodate any flaws the tradition method had; the new methodology is called Network Ethnography.
Network ethnography involves with passive or active observation, extended immersion, and in-depth interviews, following the processes of ethnographical research methods. The contribution Network ethnography provides is that it does not limit the researcher into choosing territorial field sites, but also has the opportunity to select multiple social networks as field sites.
Another reason why they believe Network Ethnography is a valid method of examining social behaviour and different technological mediums is that a researcher can manage sample bias whether it be extreme, snowball or any other sampling method. The reason being is that “snowball sampling for example, does not allow the researcher to control the direction of sample growth, but social network analysis will identify some of the most significant informants in the network (Howard, 2002 pg 562).” Researchers can use the in.
In this session, we talk about the mobile and social web, and how it shapes economy, individual behavior and well-being, political events, and society as a whole.

Review the Huston (2010) article listed under reading assignments. W.docxdaynamckernon
Review the Huston (2010) article listed under reading assignments. Which skills described for the Nurse Leader in the year 2020 are important now? Explain your rationale and provide an example from your practice setting (or from your prelicensure program) to support it.
This is the article:
eynote speaker at the conference, American
nursing professor and former president of
the international honour society of nursing,
Sigma Theta Tau, Carol Huston, painted a
picture of a brave new nursing world in 2020,
in her opening presentation,
Preparing nurse
leaders for 2020.
She outlined eight leadership competencies
every nurse leader would need in the 2020. The
first was a global perspective. “Every health care
issue has to be looked at from a global perspective.
We used to think pandemics were confined
to developing countries. We now know they are
just one short flight away.”
There was a more urgent need for international
standards for basic nursing education.
The nursing shortage was one of the most
serious threats to global health, she said, and
it would get significantly worse before it got
better. Nurse migration was a global problem.
(See news p7.)
The second leadership competency was better
use of technology to connect people. Technology
had driven so many changes already in health
care but knowledge and information acquisition
and distribution was going to multiply exponentially.
“Forty percent of what we know today will
be obsolete in three years,” Huston said.
She listed a range of technological developments
that would have a major impact on health
care in the next 20 years. By 2030 diagnostic
body scans, which could identify underlying
pathology, would become part of showering.
Improvements in body scanning technology
would mean there would be no need for invasive
surgery or tests. “Nano bots” circulating in the
blood stream would identify disease processes
and begin to repair them. Gene therapy would
mean what was now untreatable would be treatable
and could see cancer abolished completely
within two decades. Stem cell therapy would
eliminate the need for organ transplants “as we
will grow new organs. It is predicted we will be
able to grow heart, kidneys and livers by 2020.
There are already clinical trials underway growing
new teeth – instead of dentures you would
grow you own new teeth.”
Merging of the human and the machine would
advance significantly and by 2020 there would
be pancreatic pacemakers for diabetics and the
technology to enable blind people to see and
deaf people to hear.
Robotics would continue to develop, with
physical service robots which could wash patients
and help feed and carry patients. There
was the potential for the use of robots in
therapeutic roles. Paro, a robotic seal developed
in Japan, responded to patting by closing its

He will be making use of a new procedure that involves taking his skin cells to produce a twin. The twin starts out as an embryo and grows into a child. The child in this case will have the same genetic information as John Doe. John Doe and his child will be twins.
Jane Doe is eighteen. For as long as she can remember she has been sexually attracted to other females. Her parents belong to a religion that has a religious text stating that God forbids one to be a lesbian. This religion goes on further to say that lesbians will be punished in the afterlife. Jane Doe is debating whether she should tell her parents about her sexual attraction. She has not yet decided if she should come out to her parents and live as a lesbian now that she is a legal adult.
Joe and Mary are a couple. Before becoming sterile, they had a child. This child died of a rare disease. Joe and Mary miss their child terribly. They have heard that there is a new IVF procedure that can ensure that they can have another child. However, their religion forbids using IVF.

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.

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
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.

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.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

1. Respond to these two classmates’ posts.
1. After reading this journal article regarding
ethics of internet research, I have discovered different
viewpoints of research and determined some ethical concerns.
As this type of “web-based” research grows, researchers will
face ethical concerns that are different from traditional research
ethical issues, (Denissen, Neumann & Van Zalk, 2010)
The main attribute of internet research, as I see it, is the ability
to have a global footprint; meaning almost any one that has a
computer and connectivity can access all types of information
and data. Along with this power, comes great responsibility.
The web can be a wonderful tool which can afford individuals,
organizations, communities, and others tremendous access into
good and bad places. This access can afford humans into
medical breakthroughs, how to guides on repairs and building,
how to get from city to city, and a multitude of positive ways to
learn and grow.
Internet research use is growing at a fast pace and consequently,
is creating ethical dilemmas.
At the same time, it can be a way to link terrorists’
organizations, promote child pornography etc. As you can see,
internet research can be used for the greater good, or to our
detriment.
This is where the ethics comes into play, and guidelines are set
up to monitor ethical issues which occur due to this process.
Institutional Review Boards at institutions conducting this type
of
research
need specific guidelines for researchers to follow in order to
maintain the integrity of
2. research.

With the rapid increase of technology has come tremendous
opportunity. Information is more easily accessible than ever
before, which also creates ethical concerns. This week’s lecture
describes research that is ethical as one “that the researchers are
protecting the privacy of the participants and any research data
collected about them.” The journal article, “The Ethics of
Internet Research” examines internet research and the ethical
issues that arise.
The advantages of internet research over traditional
methods are that it is less costly, less of a time commitment,
more controlled by the researcher, higher accuracy in data
collection, and the ability to easily provide follow up and
feedback (Williams, 2012). In a lot of aspects, internet research
can be more efficient and less costly. However, there are many
disadvantages that the article addresses on internet research.
One is lack of control over the test setting (Williams, 2012). It
is difficult to verify if the subject is in fact who they say they
are. There are also ethical concerns about the data trail that is
3. left behind (Williams, 2012). Personal information could end up
being used in a public forum when the study is complete.
The article concludes with strategies on how to address
particular ethical concerns. One significant challenge is that
research that is global has different privacy and freedom values
from country to country (Williams, 2012). The Association of
Internet Research (AOIR) offers guidelines on ethics in internet
research (Williams, 2012). As internet research continues to
grow, ethical considerations must be investigated in order for
the research to carry the same weight as traditional methods.

Google’s business model includes state-of-the art research. Pick
a research study that Google’s researchers have done from their
list of Research Areas & Publication. What do you think about
this research? Find details about related research to support
your argument.
The article I chose was from the data mining category. It was
titled, YouTube Around the World: Geographic Popularity of
Videos. One of the most popular past time, in which we use the
internet for, is watching videos. The internet has given us
access to websites such as YouTube, Hulu, and Netflix which
all stream videos. This article found that 50% of videos have
more than 70% of their views in one region. The interesting
thing that was found by this study was that as videos on
YouTube gain more popularity, meaning “when the fraction of
4. socially-generated views grows larger than 20% the videos
experience a more focused popularity in fewer regions”
(Brodersen, Scellato, & Wattenhofer, 2012). Video views will
grow in one area to a point where they then spread to others,
until the popularity dies and then it will return to the focus
location. There is strong evidence that supports the claim that
videos receive most of their views from one region. The study
showed where 40% of all videos receive 80% of their views
from one region.
After reading the evidence and all the information this study
provided I would have to agree. I makes perfect since really,
when we stop to think about it. There are many factors that
would cause this segregation, items like; culture, language, or
even interests. Videos in Korean are not likely to become viral
in countries with none Korean speaking individuals. Though one
video did defeat these odds, and even though Psi is speaking
Korean his music video went viral everywhere. In fact his dance
and song have been featured in movies and commercials.
The highest number of videos are linked from North America
followed by Europe, Asia & Oceania, and South America. The
most popular videos are music,
equaling
30.7% of all the videos on YouTube. The next closest is
entertainment at 14.59%. Age plays an important role in what
people watch on YouTube as well. Those over 60 watch more
news related videos than any other age group (Sysomos, 2010).

Chosen research study and article
5. For this discussion, I have chosen Security, Cryptography, and
Privacy from Google’s research study. The article is “Security
issues on cloud computing” by Dawn Song, Elaine Shi, Ian
Fischer, and Umesh Shankar.
Thoughts about the research
The research presented aspects of cloud computing in regard to
security concerns versus the advantages. “Although cloud
computing promises lower costs, rapid scaling, easier
maintenance, and service availability anywhere, anytime, a key
challenge is how to ensure and build confidence that the cloud
can handle user data securely” (Song, Shi, Fischer, & Shankar,
2012, p. 39). My thoughts about this subject are perhaps a bit
“old school” in that trusting information to anyone but you is
risky. My thoughts about the research, and the article itself, are
that the authors explained the subject in great detail and
provided data that displayed how the public and business
community views a potential threat. “A recent Microsoft survey
found that “58 percent of the public and 86 percent of business
leaders are excited about the possibilities of cloud computing.
But more than 90 percent of them are worried about security,
availability, and privacy of their data as it rests in the cloud”
(Song, Shi, Fischer, & Shankar, 2012, p. 39). I believe that
providing data in the research design allows the reader to
“visually picture” the subject.
Related research
I was able to find similar research on the subject in the form of
an article titled “Security issues on cloud computing” by Harit
Shah, Sharma Shankar Anandane, and Shrikanth (no first name
listed). This article displayed research on the risks of security
and privacy in the cloud computing arena. “Many experts in
government and commerce still consider the greatest barrier to
adoption of cloud services to be concerns about information
security and privacy” (Shah, Anandane, & Shrikanth, 2013, p.
29). With the threat of breaching the security barriers of a cloud
site a real possibility, this is a great topic for research.
