freire ch2 analysis

 

Your writing may be in essay (indented paragraph) format or numbered format. Your analysis should discuss in some detail:

 

1. Describe your first impressions of the text, its author, and its purpose. If possible, consider what “discourse communities” author either identifies with, or is interested in.

 

2. a. (General) Give your own interpretation of the author’s thesis, argument, main idea, point, or purpose in this book chapter. (Note: it is possible to get an idea of the chapter’s purpose from the first 2-4 pages and the last page). Evaluate one or more classes you have currently, or have taken recently, that use the author’s “banking system” of education. (This part can blend into part 2b. also.)
3. (Specific areas) Quote or paraphrase two different areas of the chapter to describe two particular places where you agree or disagree (or a mix of both) with the author.

 

3)         At least twice, choose an area of the text where the author cites and discusses another source, or where the author describes in detail a real-life example to support his ideas. If applicable, describe and evaluate the signal phrases and relevant source details that the author uses. Does he do this well, or not? (Explain why, rather than just saying “yes” or “no.”) What else could he have included to strengthen the source use (or example)?

Describe three major types of virtualization utilized by businesses.

In Part 1 of this assignment, you will answer three questions. For each question, conduct in-depth research on the topic using both the course textbook or primary sources outside of the course textbook as references. Answer each of the review questions in a scholarly manner. Use Microsoft Word or a compatible word processing application to create your data. Be sure to place APA Style in-text citations and a reference table as appropriate.

Copy the numbered questions from the assignment and paste them in bold font just before each of your answers.

Part 1 Module Review Questions

Answer the following questions:

1. The course textbook states that “most business initiatives succeed or fail based on the quality of their data” (Turban, Volonino, & Wood, 2015, p. 37). With excellent information technology available today to manage data, why do organizations still have information deficiency problems?
2. Hardware virtualization is a widely utilized technology in the business world for purposes of reducing energy and providing scalability with load-balancing. Describe three major types of virtualization utilized by businesses.
3. Describe at least three functions that a Database Management System (DBMS) performs to help create an accurate and consistent view of data throughout an enterprise

Assignment: Module Review Part 2 Practical Exercise

In this practical assignment, you are to create a simple spreadsheet utilizing Excel or a compatible application that will be the primary component of your DSS. You are the IT Department Manager employed by an imaginary Fixed Base Operator (FBO) located in Somewhere, Kansas.

The DSS that you create will be utilized by the Corporate Finance Department Manager to reach structured decisions relating to aviation fuel purchasing contracts. To be able to arrive at those decisions, the manager needs data that represents the pricing for two distinct types of aviation fuel, Jet Fuel and Avgas available from the five different vendors with which the company has accounts. The DSS should present the lowest pricing in U.S. dollars for each of the two types of aviation fuel along with the vendors that offer that pricing.

Create your DSS spreadsheet utilizing the following steps:

In Row 1, create a header row with the following labels in bold font:

• Column A: Vendor Name
• Column B: Jet Fuel Price
• Column C: Avgas Price

In Column A, Rows 2 through 6, list the following vendors:

• ABC Fuel
• Midwest Fuel
• Texas Wildcat Fuel
• KC Fuel
• Royal Canadian Fuel

In Columns B and C, Rows 2 through 6, enter imaginary pricing values for all vendors and both types of fuel, keeping the range of values between $5.00 and $10.00 for each type of fuel.

Format the cells in Columns B and C, Rows 2 through 6 as “Currency” with two decimal places.

• Label the cell in Column A, Row 8, “Best Jet Fuel Price” in bold font. Label the cell in Column A, Row 9, “Jet Fuel Vendor” in bold font.
• Label the cell in Column A, Row 11, “Best Avgas Price” in bold font.
• Label the cell in Column A, Row 12, “Avgas Vendor” in bold font.

Using Functions and Formulas

1. Using the MIN function, create a formula for the cell located in Column B, Row 8 that calculates the lowest value for the Jet Fuel pricing available from the five vendors.
2. Using the MIN function, create a formula for the cell located in Column C, Row 11 that calculates the lowest value for the Avgas pricing available from the five vendors.
3. Using nested “IF” functions, create a formula for the cell in Column B, Row 9 that places the name of the “winning” vendor for the “Best Jet Fuel Price.”

   The following video offers valuable tips on how to create nested “IF” functions:

4. Select “Align Right” for the data in the cell located at Column B, Row 9.
5. Using nested “IF” functions, create a formula for the cell in Column C. Row 12 that places the name of the “winning” vendor for the “Best Avgas Price.”
6. Select “Align Right” for the data in the cell located at Column C, Row 12.
7. Select “all Borders” for the cells in Columns A, B, and C, Rows 1 through 12

Discussion: Data Mining

Discussion Assignment Question

In Chapter 3 of the course textbook, the authors describe how the U.S. military in Afghanistan used a massive data mining system, referred to as Nexus 7, to better understand the Afghan society (Turban, Volonino, & Wood, 2015, pp. 97-98). Worldwide print and broadcast media often present data that debates whether or not our societies have arrived at an “Orwellian 1984” state where government agencies, through the utilization of extensive data mining technologies, watch our every move and know our every written and spoken thought.

Question:

It is alleged that government agencies such as the NSA, CIA, and FBI in the U.S. engage in data mining your personal information for the purpose of protecting the national security. Should we be concerned about such data mining and that “dirty data” lacking in integrity and deemed untrustworthy might be stored?

Respond to a minimum of two peers’ posts. With at least 75 words ea.

 

See attached for chapter 3

Use APA Format and in text citation

Remember, one goal in the Discussion assignments is to create an atmosphere of interaction by posting meaningful responses that advance and expand the depth of the discussion. Do this by providing additional support to your peers’ initial and response posts, or if appropriate, by challenging them if you feel that the data that they presented is weak. Likewise, when a peer challenges the data in your posts, debate the issue, and providing further support for your points of view on the topic.

To assist you in submitting scholarly data in this first Discussion assignment, note that the above descriptive data contains a “hint” regarding how to format and place the initial in-text citation for the course textbook utilizing APA style. The proper format for referencing the course textbook in a Reference List utilizing APA style is as follows:
