In May 2012, a YOUTUBE video of a verbal altercation between a North Carolina social studies teacher and several of her students went viral and became a leading story in many national media outlets. The teacher, Tonya Dixon-Neely, had included a “fact of the day” on the board that reported on a recent news story that Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney had bullied a prep school classmate in the 1960s. Several students began questioning whether President Obama had ever bullied anyone, which prompted Dixon-Neely to demand that the students stop disrespecting the President. At that point, the conversation devolved into a shouting match between Dixon-Neely and her students, which was recorded and promptly uploaded to YouTube (Troop, 2012). In the days that followed, conservative pundits across the United States used the video to assail Dixon-Neely’s actions, as well as justify their preexisting beliefs that American public education is a bastion of liberal thought. Dixon-Neely was suspended without pay by her school district, although she was ultimately reinstated the following academic year provided that she completed a monitored growth plan in response to her actions (Jackson, 2012).In May 2012, a YOUTUBE video of a verbal altercation between a North Carolina social studies teacher and several of her students went viral and became a leading story in many national media outlets.

Cybercrime and Security

Read the following scenario and use it as the basis for your answers to the associated essay questions:

Scenario

You are an information system security professional for CCS International, a company that provides IT personnel for a variety of government and private contracts. The organization to which you are currently contracted hires a new chief security officer (CSO) after the previous CSO retires. Although the new CSO is in charge of security for the organization’s data assets, networks, and computer systems, her background and most recent experience is in physical security, and she knows very little about information security. Your manager explains that you have been assigned the task of preparing an information brief for the new CSO, which will provide her with the basics of cyber security, acquaints her with the current threats facing your organization’s data infrastructure, and the legal issues related to protecting the enterprise. Prepare a slide presentation covering (at a minimum) the following topics:

What is cyber security, and what are some of its key concepts?

What are the most significant threats to your data, and what are some of the root causes of those threats?

Are cyber criminals a real danger to your enterprise? Why or why not?

What is risk management, and how can the risk management process help you protect your infrastructure and data?

What are some computer security best practices that you would recommend, and how will they help protect your IT assets?

If your organization does become a victim of a cyber-crime or a security incident, how will you respond? What types of evidence would be important to your investigation, and how would they be used?
What would law enforcement’s role be in your incident response plan?
Are there any laws at the local, state, federal, or even international level that protect your organization by imposing penalties on cyber criminals?
Provide at least one example of a cyber-crime court case, and explain both its outcome and its significance.

What do you need from the CSO to best protect your organization? Justify your requests.
Assignment

Prepare a 15- to 20-slide presentation addressing the scenario and covering the topics above. Ensure that you create a title slide for your presentation (not included in the 15- to 20-slide count) displaying your name, the course title, and the date of submission. You also need a References slide (not included in the 15- to 20-slide count) that should match your citations on your slides. Be sure to use a background and fonts appropriate for your meeting with the CSO.

Prepare a script to go along with the slide presentation that could be read to provide an in-depth discussion of the topics highlighted on the slides. Research the topics above, using your textbook, information provided in class, and resources provided by the UMGC library or textbooks from previous courses. Your script should be written in an academic format, should be logically organized (e.g., introduction, body, and conclusion), and should include the following:

Analyze a Poem or Poems

Compare poems: Chose two or more poems that you think can be meaningfully compared. Either they are thematically similar (i.e. Kay Ryan’s Drops in a Bucket,’ and Jorie Graham’s ‘Praver both think about human experience), or, they are different from each other in an interesting way (i.e. Randall Jarrell
200 Kouman ower ten both considered Confessional poets, but they have little in common in their poetry).
A thesis statement might sound like:
“Although on the surface, Philip Levine’s What Work Is’ and Ai’s poem ‘Factory’ seem to share concerns, in reality, their goals as poems could not be more different.”
or,
“Although Ralegh’s reply to Marlowe in ‘The Nymph Replies to the Shepherd’ is more politically satisfying, Marlowe is still the superior poet.”

Please remember the following things:
Your essay should be double-spaced and in a simple (e.g. Times New Roman) 12-point font.
This essay needs to be 4-6 pages long.
Proofread your essay (for errors of spelling, punctuation, grammar) before vou hand it in.
For all matters of style, citation and attribution, please follow MLA Style, summarized in, e.g. Diana Hacker, A Pocket Style Manual or other MLA citation resource.
Your essay will likely be an exercise in close reading and the presentation of supporting evidence via supplemental materials (academic articles, book excerpts, contemporaneous documents).
Your discussion will probably (1) make an assertion, (2) use direct quotation of the piece under consideration, (3) indicate what supplemental materials say that illuminate your point, and (4) conclude by restating your thesis and present your concluding remarks.

NURSE THEORY CASE STUDY

APPLICATION OF SELECTED THEORY TO PRACTICE (Case Study)

Hildegard Peplau: Interpersonal Relations Theory

The purpose of this assignment is to demonstrate the application of a nursing theory/model to practice. The case study should be about a patient you have cared for or can be a fictitious patient you can make up (much easier if it is a real example).
ASSIGNMENT
1. You will choose a theory to apply to your case study. It should be a different theory than the one you chose for your personal philosophy paper or your group project.
2. The preference is for a middle-range theory.
• Your paper should begin with an introductory paragraph not an abstract. (This should give a brief overview of your discussion of the theory and makes the reader want to continue to read.)
• You must briefly explain the theory including key concepts and definitions.
• You then need to walk through your case study (patient example) and apply your chosen theory to the concepts of the nursing process (especially focus on assessment and interventions).
• Explain and use examples of how the theory guides those phases of the nursing process.
• You will need to end with an evaluation of the applicability of the theory to practice.
3. This paper needs 3 references, one being a peer-reviewed journal article.
4. The body of your paper should be 5 pages and include a title page (1 page) and
reference list (1 page). However, the final count for the paper is 7 pages.

Country Case Study Presentation-India

Speech Community/Country Case Study

Presentation

Assignment Description

You will select one case study of an international speech community. You will investigate the history and current sociopolitical context of this group, with particular attention tolanguage ideologies and language policies that shape the experiences of this group in a particular nation-state. You will become “the expert(s)” of this speech community, crafting a presentation meant to share your knowledge and to facilitate a discussion & analysis of the language status & policies of this speech community.

**This project is designed to be completed individually; however, if you have colleagues in class and would like to collaborate on this assignment, please let me know ASAP so we can discuss how to divide work.

Guiding Questions:

What is the chosen speech community you are researching and presenting?
Where does this speech community exist (and if in more than one country, which country context will your group be discussing)?
What is the history of this speech community in this country?
Does it pre-date nationhood (e.g.: indigenous groups, local minority languages) or is it a more recent arrival?
What has the status of this speech community and its language been over time? (i.e.: Historically marginalized but gaining rights and recognition, always marginalized, formerly high status but now receding)
What is the current status of this speech community in this country?
What are prevalent current attitudes, especially within circles of power, towards this group and its language?
To what extent are the group and its language given access or even promoted in politics/governance, education, and cultural participation? (Mention specific policies and programs in place that support or hinder inclusion in society).

The assignment is worth 30 points and is broken down into three parts:

Annotated Bibliography (10 points)
Presentation (20 points): The presentation must address the above guiding questions and adhere to the guidelines in the rubric below. The idea is that you are the expert(s) and are teaching us about your speech community, its history and status. Slides are due on Canvas on April 13th at 11:59pm.

An important note on plagiarism/using information from the internet:

I expect that all the writing in your presentation is original writing based on your research. In other words, it is not acceptable to copy/paste information from the internet directly onto your presentation. You are welcome to use direct quotes from some of your sources, however, these quotes must be clearly indicated and the sources should also be given (in APA7 format plus a reference page).

Some Extra Clarification/Ideas:

Country Case Study Presentation

Presentation:
Using powerpoint, prezi, or another engaging presentation format, create a 15+ minute presentation (roughly 5-8 slides) on the history of your country and its language, the language policies governing that community, challenges and complications that have occurred, the current status of the country and its language today, and any other engaging information you would like to include.
Record yourself presenting your country case study and using the slides as you present. You can use Zoom to record your presentation and upload the video to canvas.
Think about the note catcher—it includes information on schooling, politics, commercial, and culture—try and include these points/ideas in your presentation on the country and its language as a whole. This will be a great way to introduce these four ideas to preface your activity.
Consider including short videos using links to YouTube that are informative and engaging to discuss important ideas/history/etc. about your country and its language.
Audiences like a lot of pictures, color, and engaging media/ideas. Go easy on the text.
Think of ways to engage the audience in your presentation. Will you have a pop quiz on the information so they should be taking notes? (If so, warn them before you begin!). Will you ask them questions during the presentation or asking for feedback?
Include your references (APA style) as the last slide of your presentation.
Get CREATIVE!
After your presentation, provide an opportunity for questions and answers.
