This document provides instructions for a writing assignment on standards organizations. Students are asked to: 1) Summarize the work of one working group from the IETF or IEEE focused on networking. 2) Evaluate three standards organizations (IEEE, ISO, ANSI) and determine which is most important for communication technology. 3) Take a position on whether a federal regulating body for standards like NIST is needed and provide justification. The assignment must be 3-4 pages, follow APA or school formatting guidelines, and include at least 3 quality resources. It aims to have students describe business network needs, research issues, and write clearly on communication networks.
