Practical connection

Provide a reflection of at least 500 words (or 2 pages double spaced) of how the knowledge, skills, or theories of this course have been applied, or could be applied, in a practical manner to your current work environment. If you are not currently working, share times when you have or could observe these theories and knowledge could be applied to an employment opportunity in your field of study. Requirements:Provide a 500 word (or 2 pages double spaced) minimum reflection.Use of proper APA formatting and citations. If supporting evidence from outside resources is used those must be properly cited.Share a personal connection that identifies specific knowledge and theories from this course.Demonstrate a connection to your current work environment. If you are not employed, demonstrate a connection to your desired work environment. You should not, provide an overview of the assignments assigned in the course. The assignment asks that you reflect how the knowledge and skills obtained through meeting course objectives were applied or could be applied in the workplace.Be sure to not self-plagiarize as this assignment is similar in multiple courses.

Story Telling

 Review  Discussion: Storytelling and Success Stories then focus on Moritz’s work on the  OECD Better life index download the executive summary and the index data.

In a one-page summary, note a few particular places around the world and compare and contrast the statistics.  Also, note briefly how this graphic tells the story.

Change compute stats2

Change compute_stats2.py so that it takes a single command line argument that is an integer

specifying which whitespace separated column it should process. For the user, column numbers

start at 1.

Since the program is going to be processing the whole file rather than just a single column of

numbers, we will use the csv module to parse it. Read the csv.reader documentation to figure

out how to specify spaces as the delimiter in the file and how to skip over multiple delimiters in

a row (if you don’t do this, each individual space will be considered a delimiter, which is not

going to work well).

Finally, change your program so that it does not require the input values to be sorted already

(i.e., it should sort the values itself before passing to the compute_stats function).

Project on survelliance state

Your Research Project on the surveillance state consists of two parts:

1 a Powerpoint presentation consisting of at least 12 slides not including title and references.

2. 750 word research  paper with at least 3 sources. There should be no lists. Write in format not outline format. Include a meaningful title.

Do not double space.

You must include at least 3 quotes from your sources enclosing the copied words in quotation marks and cited in-line. 

There should be no lists – bulleted, numbered or otherwise. 

Write in research format with coherent paragraphs not in outline format. Distribute your quotes among the paragraphs.

Do your own work. Zero points will be awarded if you copy other’s work and do not cite your source or you use word replacement software. 

The topic must be appropriate for graduate level. Find a topic that we covered in the course and dig deeper or find something that will help you in your work or in a subject area of interest related to the course topic. Use academically appropriate resources which you can find in the Danforth Library Research Databases.

Submit all documents at on time. Do not zip or otherwise compress them. Do not use .rar. Use .doc and .ppt extensions  Do a five source annotated bibliography/reference list on the subject. There should be two annotations for each source. In the first write a paragraph of at least five sentences summarizing the thesis of the article. In the second write a paragraph of at least five sentences summarizing your reflections on the thesis of the article. You should do a deep dive into a topic. Do not do a survey. Make use of academic references such as you can find in the Danforth LIbrary research databases 

Use at least five sources.

Copying without attribution or the use of spinbot or other word substitution software will result in a grade of 0. 

Database Project

You will be designing and creating a DBMS for the field of Healthcare. You will be creating SQL queries based on common queries that a common end-user would make to a healthcare system. In addition, identify when to use No-SQL. Not only are you building multi-table databases for different components of a healthcare system, but you will also incorporate and create image databases that store real and publicly available health data like cancer images and how databases play a role in building machine learning models.
