Improving your health enhances your life and academic success.  Your personal health choices affect the lives of others too, Review Chapter 1 for additional benefits of healthy living. PART I: 1)      Construct a welcome letter to the students taking HED 210 next year.  To prepare this letter begin by taking out the syllabus.  Think of how you felt the first day of class when we discussed: “What is Health”?  Review all the topics and activities you were involved in and how that has impacted the way you think and how you act in regards to promoting or protecting your health as well as the health of the people around you. 2)      What would you like to say to future students who are going to take this class?  What would you have done differently based on what you know today?  How valuable was this class in assisting you in taking charge of your health habits and influencing your academic success?   In your letter make sure to tell the students about 1) the course content and activities; 2) the Personal Health Portfolio; 3) completing the assessments; and 4) Blackboard assignments.  You can add additional information, but primarily tell them how to successfully complete the course and how it impacts academic success.  Provide future students with an “academic success plan” in your letter. PART II: In Module 5 you created a SMART goal. Write a 3-4 paragraph narrative to include the following: Your SMART goal created in Module 5 The specific changes/objectives – what you plan to do in the future at CSU to lead you to attaining the goal The records you will keep along the way to keep you on track of your goal A summary of your behavior change that includes: How you believe you will progress through the behavior change process Do you really plan to do what you planned to do – or will you let it slip by? Why or why not? What changes in your strategies to achieve your goal might you change? What support will you have (or not have) from those people around you How will your SMART goal help you in your health and wellness as well as your academic success? Please note – in the reporting reflection items above – you will be graded on the quality of the effort you have put into making your goal.  Your grade will focus on: If you have a reasonable, “achievable” goal? If you have a high-quality action plan that actually would move you toward your goal? How you will keep your records so you can track your progress?

1.     An Introduction section which presents the security strategies being recommended in your report. You should explain what how these strategies will improve the overall security posture of Sifers-Grayson. 2.     A Security Strategies section in which you present an analysis of the defensive security strategies and then provide an explanation as to how each of the two selected defensive strategies will improve the security posture for Sifers-Grayson. Include a comparison of the two primary types of strategies – layered security and defense in depth. Then, explain how the selected security strategies use one or both of these approaches. Use information from Project #1 and the Red Team’s penetration tests to support your justification for implementing the selected security strategies.  3.     A Product Evaluations section in which you present and discuss the technologies and products which will be used to implement each strategy. You must have a separate sub-section for each defense in depth strategy. Under each sub-section, you will name and describe the individual products (i.e. describe firewalls and then describe your chosen firewall product). Your presentation of each product should be in the form of a recommendation to purchase / implement. 4.     A Summary Implementation Recommendations section in which you summarize your product recommendations for products and technologies to be used in implementation the two defensive security strategies. Be sure to explain the benefits of implementing the two strategies (e.g. protection, detection, prevention of incidents caused by attacks).

You encounter databases on a daily basis as you interact with different types of systems. Now, you want to consider how an organization determines the types of things (entities), information about those things (attributes), and how the things are connected (relationships) by answering the following questions: What types of people, processes, support documents, or other resources do you think would be important when identifying entities, attributes, and relationships for a new database? Why are they important? When considering this topic, think about how a database might be used and the reasons that people outside of the information technology (IT) team within an organization might be involved in the design input for a new database system.

I need to provide the lessons I have received throughout the year as the coursework says: It is REQUIRED that you use the MVC pattern and approach TAUGHT IN CLASS. If you do not use this design pattern/approach, YOUR WORK WILL BE CONSIDERED AN ILLEGIBLE SUBMISSION. Note, the pattern TAUGHT IN CLASS – not the pattern on “Abbo’s Random Internet Tutorial”, or the pattern deemed suitable by “Joe’s One-Man-Band Software Development Consultancy That Will Do Techie Assignments For You For Money”.

In this modern economic era of tight budgets, cutbacks, and shortfalls in both budgets and staffs, most organizations are pressured to “do more with less”.  Customers and executive sponsors push projects  to complete earlier and cheaper, with less budget funding, but with the same scope and quality.  Rapid Application Development (RAD) and Agile and Extreme development methods are pushed.  The problem, as always, is with the balance of the triple constraint (this time, with the added factor of quality). There is also a trade-off between the short-term benefits of quality (and of projects themselves, for that matter), and their long-term strategic benefits to the corporation.  These economic and strategic forces often result in executives pressuring PMs to take shortcuts in IT projects.  While such shortcuts may seem attractive, they usually have highly adverse consequences to the company in both the short term and the long term.  One example, of many, is that poor quality could be publicized and have adverse consequences for the company. These pressures from executives, and the related economic pressures, are project risks, and the risks often manifest themselves as quality issues.  Now answer these questions: a)    If faced with increasing pressure to get a project done ahead of time, what steps should a project manager take if he feels this will jeopardize project quality? b)    Suppose that rather than time, the pressure is to do more with less, that is to accomplish the same scope with staff cuts and budget cuts.  Does that change your answer?  That is, what steps should a PM take if he feels this will jeopardize project quality? c)    In addition to the effects that a rushed project might have on project quality, what kind of short-term and long-term effects might it have on project team members? d)    What kind of short-term and long-term effects might it have on the organization or corporation itself?
