This assignment has two goals: 1)
have students increase their understanding of the concept of Protecting
Personal Information (PPI) and other ethical issues related to the use
of information technology through research, and 2) learn to correctly
use the tools and techniques within Word to format a research paper including using Word 2010/2013’s citation tools. These skills will be valuable throughout studentsâ academic career. The
paper will require a title page, NO abstract, three to four full pages
of content with incorporation of a minimum of 3 external resources from
credible sources, and a Works Cited/Reference page. Three pages of content means 3 full pages, to the bottom of the third page. Two pages plus five lines on the third page will not suffice. Note
that submitting a paper that is less than three pages may affect your
grade on several rubric items, including page length and several content
items.A list of topics from which students can choose is provided below. Wikipedia and similar pages are NOT creditable sources. Blogs and discussion groups are not creditable sources. The course textbook cannot be used as a source for the research paper. No more than 10% of the paper may be in the form of a direct citation from an external source.Topics for Research PaperPersonally Identifiable Information (PII)Social EngineeringEmployee MonitoringInformation PrivacyElectronic Medical RecordsBiometrics (in terms of ethical and privacy issues)Identity TheftUse of CookiesPrivacy Laws related to Information Technology useIntellectual Property Rights; CopyrightWriting Quality for the Research Paper*Grammar, Verb Tenses, Pronoun Use, Spelling, Punctuation, and Writing Competency.*Remember:

For example, “the person WHO made the speech” not “the person THAT made the speech.”*In a professional paper one does not use contractions (doesn’t, don’t, etc.) and one does not use the personalyouoryour.
Use the impersonal as in the previous sentence. It is more
business-like than saying, “Also in a professional paper you don’t use
contractions.”*Use
the impersonal as in the sentence immediately above. It is more
business-like than saying, “Also in a professional paper you don’t use
contractions.”This is not a speech, it is a research paper.
