This is the video , if u want to see it

Also,

There are two comments for my classmates. I want you to reply on them by 50 words

The First comment from Megan Reese

The TedTalk presentation that we viewed in class was very interesting, giving a perspective and analysis of cheating far more scientific than typical assumptions associated with the deceptive act. Irrational behavior of cheating and stealing can occur in various outlets, but the platforms discussed in this talk were of the stock market economy and monitored cheating in an experimental setting. It is common knowledge that cheating is a bad thing and it goes against moral standards. Despite this understanding, there are not simply a couple people who cheat a lot, it was found that lots of people cheat a little bit. Based on the findings explained in the TedTalk, the item that is being stolen or used as the object of fraudulence influences behavior. There are moral feeling associated with an object. If the item of interest is a seemingly valueless token, people are more likely to cheat versus a scenario where the item is money. Another item that causes people to feel guilty about cheating is in a situation regarding religion, such as a test on the 10 Commandments. There is a “personal fudge factor” involved in cheating and so long as one’s personal view is not diminished, they justify cheating slightly. Similarly, if a know cheater is representing a specific group, there will be a sociological impact on the level of cheating amongst the remaining individuals. If the cheater is part of the in-group, the group is more apt to cheat, but if the cheater is outside of their social circle cheating will decrease. People justify their actions when cheating becomes a norm of their social organization. When people are reminded of the morality regarding a decision, they are less likely to cheat.


The second comment from Jemel Kate Adaya

In class, we watched a TED Talk video where a man named Dan Ariely, a behavioral economist, discussed the hidden reasons why we think it’s okay to cheat or steal. Firstly, I think the speaker was credible because of his background studies in economics and his appearance. He did a very good job of using his experience as the hook and imbedded “irrationality” and “cheating” into the story. To test his proposition and answer questions about cheating, Ariely created different experiments with or without different incentives added. He even tempted people to cheat by asking them to shred their paper and then tell how many they got right. He found that cheating was still there but only a little bit. First, he concludes that cheating must be a “cost-benefit analysis” or follow economic rational theory. A person decides whether it’s worth it to cheat. However, he found this analysis to be wrong. As they increased the incentives from 1 dollar to 5 dollars to 10 dollars, less people cheated but only cheated just by little bit. So Ariely ended up concluding that maybe cheating is a measuring tool. We can cheat a little but not too much that it hurts our credibility. He called this “personal fudge factor.” For example, when asked to list the ten commandments nobody wanted to cheat because of the honor code. All in all, you can also conclude that maybe cheating is affected by the subject and the item/incentive. With that said, I found that people use cheating as a type of measuring tool to be particularly interesting.

Writing a paper using the school data collage

Ted talks and effective communication

Direction:

Watch this TED TALK on how to disagree to compliment your NVC reading: ( non-violent communication by Marshal Rosenberg: Chapters 11, 12, 14 )

Ted talk: https://www.ted.com/talks/margaret_heffernan_dare_…

Non violent communication chapter 11 to 13: https://srinathramakrishnan.files.wordpress.com/20… (this is only chapter’s summary)

book slide version : https://www.slideshare.net/hajnali3/nonviolent-com…

Next, choose two (2) talks from the following list on managing conflict, the use of force, and connecting with others through appreciation and other means, such as vulnerability. Then, summarize two (2) of the Ted Talks you chose from our list in a brief paragraph (one paragraph per talk). After completing your summary, write an analysis that draws connections/points between the talk and at least two other sources (your own research, our texts, the other talks you watched, etc). Use MLA in text citation in your paper.

Each talk should consist of a minimum of two paragraphs; one summary, one analysis. (that is a total of four paragraphs).

1. Jason Marks: In Praise of Conflict (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. Conflict is bad; compromise, consensus and collaboration are good — or so we’re told. Lawyer and bioethicist Jonathan Marks challenges this conventional wisdom, showing how governments can jeopardize public health, human rights and the environment when they partner with industry. An important, timely reminder that common good and common ground are not the same thing.

2. Scilla Elworthy: Fighting with NonViolence (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. How do you deal with a bully without becoming a thug? In this wise and soulful talk, peace activist Scilla Elworthy maps out the skills we need — as nations and individuals — to fight extreme force without using force in return. To answer the question of why and how nonviolence works, she evokes historical heroes — Aung San Suu Kyi, Mahatma Gandhi, Nelson Mandela — and the personal philosophies that powered their peaceful protests.

3. Peter van Uhm: Why I Chose a Gun (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. Peter van Uhm is the Netherlands’ chief of defense, but that does not mean he is pro-war. In this talk, he explains how his career is one shaped by a love of peace, not a desire for bloodshed — and why we need armies if we want peace.

4. Robb Willer: How to Have Better Political Conversations (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. Robb Willer studies the forces that unite and divide us. As a social psychologist, he researches how moral values — typically a source of division — can also be used to bring people together. Willer shares compelling insights on how we might bridge the ideological divide and offers some intuitive advice on ways to be more persuasive when talking politics.

5. Elizabeth Lesser: Say Your Truths and Seek Them in Others (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. In a lyrical, unexpectedly funny talk about heavy topics such as frayed relationships and the death of a loved one, Elizabeth Lesser describes the healing process of putting aside pride and defensiveness to make way for soul-baring and truth-telling. “You don’t have to wait for a life-or-death situation to clean up the relationships that matter to you,” she says. “Be like a new kind of first responder … the one to take the first courageous step toward the other.”

6. Julia Galef: Why You Think You’re Right – Even if You’re Wrong (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. Perspective is everything, especially when it comes to examining your beliefs. Are you a soldier, prone to defending your viewpoint at all costs — or a scout, spurred by curiosity? Julia Galef examines the motivations behind these two mindsets and how they shape the way we interpret information, interweaved with a compelling history lesson from 19th-century France. When your steadfast opinions are tested, Galef asks: “What do you most yearn for? Do you yearn to defend your own beliefs or do you yearn to see the world as clearly as you possibly can?”

7. Brene Brown: The Power of Vulnerability (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. Brené Brown studies human connection — our ability to empathize, belong, love. In a poignant, funny talk, she shares a deep insight from her research, one that sent her on a personal quest to know herself as well as to understand humanity.

8. Jamila Raqib: The Secret to NonViolent Resistance (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. We’re not going to end violence by telling people that it’s morally wrong, says Jamila Raqib, executive director of the Albert Einstein Institution. Instead, we must find alternative ways to conduct conflict that are equally powerful and effective. Raqib promotes nonviolent resistance to people living under tyranny — and there’s a lot more to it than street protests. She shares encouraging examples of creative strategies that have led to change around the world and a message of hope for a future without armed conflict. “The greatest hope for humanity lies not in condemning violence but in making violence obsolete,” Raqib says.

Due Week 5 and worth 175 points
Congratulations!

the executives are taking your information system proposal seriously. In fact, they think
it has the potential to transform the way the organization works.
The CIO asked you to read Connelly (2016) to think about what resources you’ll need to get your new
information system up and running. Please also review the five case studies in (Basu 2015, p. 32-35) so
you can recommend a change management pattern for your company to follow.
Write a memo to the CIO that describes how to implement your information system into the organization.
Please focus on these topics:
1. How much of the implementation work can you handle? What additional resources (people,
information, time, money, etc.) will expedite the process so you don’t end up like Susie Jeffer?
2. Outline a change management strategy: What new equipment and software are necessary? What
training and support will the staff need? How will the staff complete their work during the transition
period? Do you anticipate other areas of resistance?
3. The CIO is very skeptical, so provide evidence that your assessment is accurate and complete. It
can be difficult to admit to personal limitations!
Your memo should be 3–5 pages long.

Secure Encrypted Communications

Transmitting personal and business data and information over secure communication channels is critical. In some cases it is required, especially when personally identifiable information is being transmitted. Credit card numbers, Social Security Numbers, online purchases, business orders, and so on must all be transmitted over secure communication channels. The Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) provides the most widely used secure communications technology. PKI relies on encryption.

Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:

  1. Compare and contrast symmetric encryption to asymmetric encryption.
  2. PKI uses digital certificates to encrypt / decrypt data. Analyze the process of encrypting and decrypting data using a digital certificate.
  3. Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of using digital certificates.
  4. Evaluate the challenges related to public and private key management when using PKI.
  5. Use at least three (3) quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar Websites do not qualify as quality resources.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

  • Implement PKI and encryption solutions to ensure the confidentiality of business communications.
  • Use technology and information resources to research issues in access control.
  • Write clearly and concisely about topics related to Security Access & Control Strategies using proper writing mechanics and technical style conventions
