Defining Information Ownership: Information Systems Design and Management:

CRUD – Defining Information Ownership

One easy way to determine information ownership is to think of CRUD—create, read, update, and delete. If you cannot only read but also create, update, and/or delete information, then in some way you own that information because you are responsible for its quality.

Here again, let’s consider your school as an example and focus on your personal and transcript information. That information includes your student ID, name, address, phone number, GPA, declared major, declared minor (if you have one), and courses completed (your transcript).

Part 1: Identify Create, Update, and Delete Privileges

For each piece of information, first identify who has create, update, and delete privileges. Include any individuals or departments that have these sorts of information privileges. There may be several. If so, who is ultimately responsible for your personal and transcript information? Second, identify all the groups of people at your school who can only view (read) your information.

Part 2: Develop a CRUD Matrix

Develop a CRUD matrix that outlines the relationships among the pieces of information and user privileges (example: http://ocean.otr.usm.edu/~w300778/is-doctor/pubpdf/sc2008.pdf).

Part 3: Write a Detail Document

Write a detail document about the various business rules that define how the scenario described in Part 1 works with respect to information ownership and their relationships. Identify the appropriate relationships among the information, and define the minimum and maximum privileges associated with each relationship.

Your paper must be a minimum of two pages, double-spaced and comply with APA requirements

[Pin It]

PART 1:

Deliverable Length: 4-6 pages

Consider the following cases:

Two police officers were patrolling in a high-crime neighborhood. They noticed a parked car with two people inside (a driver and a passenger). The officers saw a young woman leaning into the passenger’s window and handing the passenger an object, which they could not identify. At this point they approached the car and the woman began to walk away.

One of the officers noticed the passenger making a shoving down motion, leading the officer to believe that the passenger might be armed. The officer drew his gun and shouted “let me see your hands.” After making more shoving down motions, the passenger complied. The officer reached into the car and touched a bulge in the passenger’s pocket. He felt large, hard objects which he believed to be rocks of crack cocaine. He then removed a plastic bag from the pocket. It contained several rocks of crack cocaine that, together with another rock found in the passenger’s clothing, totaled almost 100 grams. The passenger was arrested, but the driver and the woman standing outside it were not.

Should the passenger’s motion to suppress the seized evidence be granted?
On a routine patrol, an officer noticed a parked car. Two people were inside, and they were in a high crime area near a bar that was known for gang activity. In the past, the officer had responded to calls from the bar for everything from murder to public intoxication. The officer testified that he stopped to see if the individuals were committing a crime, lived in the area, or had some other concern. When the officer pulled behind the car and illuminated the car with his spotlight, he observed the passenger fumbling with something on the floorboard. As the officer was checking for identification, he noticed a bullet on top of the console of the car. The officer had the individuals step out of the car to ensure that they did not have any weapons. After frisking them for weapons, the officer looked in the area where he observed the passenger fumbling with something to see if he was hiding a gun. The officer said he was checking this area for his safety and to make sure that nobody would get hurt. The officer observed a 12-pack of beer on the floorboard and checked inside for a gun. When he moved the carton, he found a small baggy underneath it containing a controlled substance.

Should the passenger’s motion to suppress the controlled substance be granted?

PART 2:

Deliverable Length: 9-15 paragraphs

In cases that involve identity theft, the criminal justice system protects the people but respects the rights of the accused. Answer the following questions:

Due Week 8 and worth 200 points

Three (3) personal trainers at an upscale health spa / resort in Sedona, Arizona, want to start a health club that specializes in health plans for people in the 50+ age range. The trainers Donna Rinaldi, Rich Evans, and Tammy Booth are convinced that they can profitably operate their own club. They believe that the growing population in this age range, combined with strong consumer interest in the health benefits of physical activity, would support the new venture. In addition to many other decisions, they need to determine the type of business organization that they want to form: incorporate as a corporation or form a partnership. Rich believes there are more advantages to the corporate form than a partnership, but he has not convinced Donna and Tammy of this. The three (3) have come to you, a small-business consulting specialist, seeking information and advice regarding the appropriate choice of formation for their business. They are considering both the partnership and corporation formation options.

Assume the trainers determine that forming a corporation is the best option. Next, Donna, Rich, and Tammy need to decide on strategies geared toward obtaining financing for renovation and equipment. They have a grasp of the difference between equity securities and debt securities, but do not understand the tax, net income, and earnings per share consequences of equity versus debt financing on the future of their business. They have asked you, the CPA, for your opinion.

Preparation is key to any good research paper and presentation. Next week, you will be creating your Final Paper and Presentation. It is important to begin gathering your information and sources to fulfill this project successfully. For your Final Paper, you will be designing a training module proposal (not a full training module). The title of this training module is “The Importance of Understanding Your Learners’ Needs”. Essentially, you will be proposing the information you would include for assisting managers gain knowledge in how to meet the learning needs of their departmental employees.

In this week’s paper, you will be setting the stage to demonstrate your understanding of the psychology of learning and how it can be applied to a real-life scenario by creating a list of learning principles you may want to incorporate into your training module. The group you are hypothetically assigned to train has already been designed for you. See the “PSY331 Final Assessment Scenario”.

Although the Final Paper requires you to apply five principles to your training, that you feel will best meet your diverse learners’ needs, you will include a minimum of seven principles in this assignment that will provide you with options for your final design. The principles you choose may be from the following areas of learning psychology: behaviorism, cognitivism, constructivism, or humanism. Be sure to review the Final Paper instructions in Week Five for further guidance. You will also include five content areas that you would want to include in a training such as this.

For this assignment, you will be evaluating the different types of learning, which are indicated in the scenario for the final assignment, and then list what content you intend to include in your training, based on their needs.

Your paper must include the following:

an explanation of Behaviorism, Cognitivism, Constructivism, and Humanism (one to two paragraphs each.)
a description of seven areas of content (principles of learning) that you feel are the most important when teaching others about the importance of meeting leaner needs
Will you include information about multiple Intelligences or Emotional Intelligences?
Will you include how scaffolding differs from person to person?
What do you think is the most important?
Demonstrate your understanding of these principles by describing how they are important in creating effective learning.
a description of seven strategies, based on theory, that you will include in your own training module to ensure learning success by the group of individuals you are wanting to train (will you use repetition based on Behaviorism? Will you use motivational rewards based on humanism?).
Analyze how learning and learning theory may affect this situation by listing seven possible strategies you might use in this training scenario and supporting their application through theoretical explanations.
an explanation about why you would use each strategy based on theory and each content matter based on importance (in your opinion).

To complete this successfully, also apply your research skills to this content by synthesizing supporting evidence from at least three scholarly sources from the Ashford University Library that defend these strategies as the best options for your training.

Be sure to review the Final Paper instructions in Week Five for further guidance.
