  • The Impact of Social Media on Society: A Decade of Influence and Implications for the Future

    For your formal research argument, you will talk about social medias influence over the past 10 years. Which you can develop a strong hypothesis/thesis statement around. In other
    words, you, acting as a researcher, will develop a research question, which you speculate the
    outcome of through the research process. A research paper argues a point about a specific
    hypothesis/question/stance you are taking.
    Using primary and secondary sources are an integral part of the research process and complete
    research paper. Papers which fail to use sources will not receive a passing grade. You are
    required to use eight sources for this paper. Six must be scholarly sources. The other two can be
    pop sources of your choosing so long as it pertains to your research topic. Scholarly sources
    used cannot be published before 2017. Pop sources must be no more than one year old.
    You will research, outline, analyze and interpret research, develop a hypothesis/thesis, connect
    the research you’ve read about to your own hypothesis/thesis, and discuss your findings.
    Remember, when writing a research paper, you’re not simply summarizing or reviewing
    information that you have discovered. You are to take a stance on an issue. As you go through the
    beginnings of the research process, keep in mind that this is meant to guide you to a discovery of
    what you hoped to uncover, possibly even leading you to unexpected information. You will be
    provided with a list of potential research topics to choose from. These will be rather general,
    enabling you to develop your own hypothesis. Your final paper will be 6-8 pages.

  • Exploring Data Sources: GSS and ICPSR Title: Exploring Available Social Science Datasets: GSS and ICPSR Database Analysis

    This video talks about the GSS and the ICPSR websites that are part of this exercise.
    Launch External Tool
    Part 1: GSS
    Go to https://gssdataexplorer.norc.org/
    Links to an external site.
    Click “search variables”
    The search box lets you search for words that may appear in the survey question or explanation within the dataset. NORC sets up their data searching so that you can get maximal results, but specifically based upon the appearance of those characters in that order. For example, you search the word “race” it will also return the variable “grace.” If you searched “rac” then it can also return results where the word “racial” appears. So, it’s good to experiment with the words that you’re interested in, especially if they share roots or partial spellings.
    The first column shows you the variable name. This is the shorthand used to refer to the variable. The second column shows you variable label/description (and if you click “associated questions” it will show you the question or instructions to the person who administered the survey). The green rectangles that are marked show you which years the question was asked (if it’s gray, it wasn’t asked and if it’s gray-green striped that means not all subsamples were asked the question).
    If you click the variable name, it will take you to a new page that shows you the survey question, related variables, and the response options.
    Look for the variable named “astrolgy” – note the spelling. When you open it, it tells you that the survey question was “Now, for a new subject. Do you ever read a horoscope or your personal astrology report?” So now we can see that the variable is about if the respondent reads their horoscope. You will see that in 2008, everyone was asked this question, whereas it was asked only to some subsamples in 2006, 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, and 2018 (and wasn’t asked in any other years. The section “summary by year” shows the frequencies of each answer in each year it was asked.
    For the rest of Part 1, I want you to find six variables that are interesting. In this case, do not search for general demographics (race, gender, age, etc.) as those are almost universally common in large-scale datasets. Rather, I want you to search for one where a question was actually asked. Try to get some variety but you’re also welcome to include some that are related to each other conceptually or theoretically. For each one, I want you to include the following:
    Variable name, the question, the year(s) it was asked, and the response options (these are in the “summary by year” section underneath “label”
    I also want you to write why this variable was interesting (could be that it’s related to your topic, could be that you wanted to see if something like this was asked about, etc.)
    Part 2: ICPSR
    Go to https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/web/pages/ICPSR/index.html
    Links to an external site.
    The ICPSR is a major database of thousands of datasets. This is great because it offers a potential opportunity for finding data on pretty much any topic of interest to you. Whereas the GSS is fully, publicly available and can be downloaded right away, anything on ICPSR requires registration. One major benefit here is that this would require you to agree to the terms of use of these datasets (which include the reminder about ethical use and potential identification of participants. Another is that this limits some webscraping of these datasets. As such, this part of the exercise has you looking for potential datasets on topics/issues of interest to you.
    I want you to do the following:
    Choose a topic or issue that you’re interested. Explain why are you interested in this/what sorts of information are you looking for?
    Find three datasets on the same/similar topics
    To do this: in the find data type in the term or topic of interest to you
    Then, I want you to go through the results (notice there is a search function within the results at top) and look for threedatasets that are potentially useful
    Click the first one and get the following (whenever possible write in your own words but you can quote sections as needed):
    Title
    Principal investigators
    What it does (see summary)
    Citation
    Geographic coverage
    Methodology, specifically the universe
    Make sure to note what year(s) the data covers!
    Copy the URL from your browser
    Finally, for each dataset, does this sound like it will be useful/address what you’d hope it’d address if you wanted to use this data?
    Part 3: Reflection
    I want you to address the following: how easy or difficult was it to find data on things you’re interested in? In this case, did the GSS offer you potentially useful questions and did the ICPSR database turn up potentially useful datasets?
    This is for you think about and see what possibilities might exist for you to have access to data for projects you may one day want to do. Note: the GSS and ICPSR are obviously not exhaustive!

    In at least 500 words, please write an essay to the President about
    developing a global strategy for promoting nuclear disarmament with North Korea
    and other nations. Your essay should specifically address the following
    questions:
    1) What is the stated goal of the U.S. Defense strategy? Is it to deter
    nuclear build up among all nations, only allow the U.S. to possess nuclear
    armaments, or specifically force North Korea to eliminate its weapons programs?
    As Secretary of Defense you can shape U.S. policy on nuclear weapons in any way
    you would like. But You must make your objective clear.
    2) Based on what you’ve learned about international relations, how would you

    international organizations (IGOs, NGOs, the UN, etc.) to help you achieve your
    primary objective?
    3) Specifically describe how you might use international political economy
    to achieve your objective? For instance, what role could the IMF, World Bank,
    or other global economic forces play within your strategy? Again, you can
    provide any viewpoint you like but be as specific and detailed as you can be.
    Remember: you are advising the President of the United States!

  • “Navigating the Intersection of AI and Global Security: A Three-Pronged Approach”

    The Challenge
    When Artificial Intelligence is incorporated into activities it introduces a set of issues, for
    global security. These include dilemmas, strategic uncertainties and the potential for an arms race
    in AI. AIs diverse capabilities from aiding in decision making to controlling weapons offer
    benefits in terms of efficiency, accuracy and speed. However these advantages also bring risks
    such as heightened conflict escalation, susceptibility of AI systems to cyber attacks and ethical
    considerations related to decision making during combat situations. As someone with an interest
    in the intersection of technology and security I chose this topic to dive deeper on how the
    problem and the integration of AI can be solved.
    The Solution
    To manage the risks associated with AI implementation in settings while leveraging its
    advantages effectively my proposed strategy revolves, around three pillars; international
    governance, ethical development of AI technologies and cybersecurity protocols. Firstly, This
    entails developing AI systems that’re transparent, explainable and compliant, with humanitarian
    laws. It is crucial for developers to factor in considerations from the initial design phase to
    ensure that AI systems make decisions in line with human values and standards. Additionally it is
    important to establish cybersecurity measures to safeguard AI systems against hacking and
    misuse. This involves creating AI algorithms conducting security audits and forming rapid
    response teams to address any security breaches.
    The Platform
    The Modern War Institute (MWI) at West Point offers a platform for presenting this
    proposal. MWIs focus on warfare trends and their implications for conflicts aligns well with the
    discussion around AI in military contexts. The institutes commitment to providing solutions to
    military challenges makes it a suitable venue for this policy proposal. By following MWIs
    submission guidelines, which emphasize clarity, brevity and relevance to day issues this paper
    will contribute meaningfully to the ongoing dialogue on how AI can bolster international security
    while upholding ethical standards and stability. This proposal seeks to close the divide, between
    progress and ethical oversight encouraging a rounded strategy, for using AI in military contexts
    that upholds global security and fosters careful advancement.
    feedback from teacher 
    I think this will be an interesting paper, and this is a challenging issue. Good on you for taking it on. 
    I think one area for you to focus on is the incentives of actors that develop AI tools. AI is being developed most often in free markets, and corporations innovate because of the competition they face in open markets. Those that develop AI responsibly might lose against those that move faster and recklessly. Think about Tesla’s false advertisement of autopilot. It might have been a gamble worth taking to gain an initial foothold in the market. How do we keep the market competitive while regulating bad actors? And do this globally?
