  • Title: Understanding the Components and Functions of a Computer

    In Units V, VI, and VII, you learned about the components of a computer, how a computer 
    works, the internet, networks and network communications, cloud computing, web development, digital identity, social media, e-commerce, ethical behavior, databases, and explored two Microsoft Office applications, PowerPoint and Access. 
    In this assignment, you will demonstrate what you have learned in these three units. 
    This assignment will have four parts. Using Microsoft PowerPoint, create a presentation that addresses the prompts in each assignment.  Label each
    slide section as Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, and Part 4.
    Part 1.
    Title: Computer Hardware
    Using bullet points, briefly describe a computing device you use often, such as your desktop, laptop, tablet, or smartphone.
    Identify the make and model, and at least three other components of the computing device. In the speaker notes, discuss in detail what you use the device for and whether the device meets your current needs (why or why not?). This section should be at minimum one paragraph.
    Part 2
    Title: Network Communications
    Using the drawing
    tools in PowerPoint create
    a diagram of a network
    you use, such as
    your home network and how it
    connects to the internet. If you don’t have a network, use a friend’s
    network or one that you use at work. Label
    each component in the network 
    (computers, media devices, printers,
    routers, etc.). You can use other drawing
    software of your choice 
    (MS Visio, Paint, etc.) and paste this
    into the PowerPoint
    slide. In the speaker notes, describe
    the network and what each device
    in the network does. This section should be at minimum 
    one paragraph.
    Part 3
    Title: Importance of the Internet
    Using bullet points, briefly describe at least two reasons
    why the internet is
    essential to you. In the speaker notes, discuss
    in detail how you use the internet in your daily life and why you should be knowledgeable about the internet. This section should
    be at minimum one paragraph.
    Part  4 Title: Databases
    In this section, provide a short discussion about what you learned in the following SimNet lab: Unit VII Lab Assignment 2 (Microsoft Access Chapter 1 – Getting
    Started with Access)
    (approx. 30 minutes).
    Then, using bullet points, identify at least two advantages of using databases vs. lists. In the speaker notes, discuss the two advantages. This section should be at minimum one paragraph.
    All
    four parts of your presentation should be submitted
    in one PowerPoint document. You should use visuals to add visual appeal, such as clip art, graphics, charts, etc. The total length for this
    assignment should be at least ten slides in
    length, not counting the title or references slides.
    Please use headings
    and labels to identify the different parts and sections
    of the assignment.
    You are required to use the Notes function to add information to further explain the material on your slides.
    Your presentation must use at least
    two outside resources. One source must come from the
    CSU Online Library
    and one source can be from
    your textbook or the internet. Adhere to APA Style when constructing this assignment, including in-text citations and references for all sources that are
    used.

  • “Intake Briefing for Middle Managers: Internal Audit of Employee Use of Company Laptops for Work From Home Arrangements” Introduction: Welcome, middle managers. As part of our company’s “Work From Home” arrangements, we will be conducting

    Your task: Develop an “intake” briefing for middle managers who will be assisting in the planning and execution of an internal audit of employee use of company owned laptops as part of the company’s “Work From Home” arrangements. The purpose of an “intake” briefing is to get everyone “on the same page” with respect to what will be done, who will do it, and what the roles & responsibilities of the managers will be during the audit (e.g. assist with employee contacts and “smooth ruffled feathers” amongst their workers).
    Background: The purpose of the audit is to determine how the laptops are being used by the employees working from home (what corporate and non corporate systems, services, networks, and websites are being accessed) and to uncover, if possible, any misuse (e.g. usage that is outside of the company’s acceptable use policy). The audit should also look for evidence of laptops that are improperly configured or have vulnerable software installed.
    Background: The company will follow the Information System Security Audit Process as defined by Harris & Maymi in the CISSP All-in-One Exam Guide, 8th edition. The steps are:
    Determine Goals
    Involve the right business unit leaders
    Determine the scope
    Choose the audit team
    Plan the audit
    Conduct the audit
    Document the results
    Communicate the results
    Format: this week, your deliverable should be formatted as briefing paper (you will have a combination of paragraphs and bullet points). You should have an introduction, “analysis” section (explaining the ground rules and processes for how the audit will be conducted), and an appropriate summary section (including an appeal for cooperation and assistance). Include citations (in the text) and references (at the end) to support your work and allow your readers to fact check your analysis and conclusions.

  • Title: The Master Learning Algorithm: Potential Benefits and Concerns for Society The concept of a master learning algorithm, as proposed by Pedro Domingos in his book “The Master Algorithm,” has sparked much interest and discussion in the field of artificial intelligence

    Learning Objectives Covered
    LO1: Analyze the difference between machine learning and human learning capabilities
