Problem Based Learning

 

The Context of the Problem

Large technology projects, whether the development of new technologies or upgrading current systems or software applications, can be costly. In larger organizations, a million-dollar (or more) project is not unusual. Once a project is rolled out to production, it is important to evaluate the performance of the project. This is generally a comparison of the anticipated benefits used in making the decision to move forward with the project versus the actual performance of the systems of software once in use. Various methods may be used to evaluate the performance; however, it is important to develop a broad set of standards for making an assessment of the systems or software.

The Problem

Your organization has made a very large investment in the purchase of infrastructure or development of an in-house software application. As examples, the network infrastructure has had a hardware refresh, business analysis data tools have been implemented, or a new customer resource management software tool has been implemented. Your team must assess the performance of the newly launched technology. You will be providing the various stakeholders (user community, project managers, and senior leadership) with the plan to be used for conducting the performance assessment, including the process of collecting performance data, analysis methods, and an explanation of the appropriateness of the methods to be used (the data may be concocted or gathered from a representative system).

As you work through the problem, be sure to focus on reaching these learning outcomes:

  1. Optimize organizational processes using data analysis.
  2. Assess the potential of various software to enhance organizational performance.
  3. Evaluate applications for the potential to improve collaboration, sharing, and lowering cost.
  4. Manage application development to lower cost and improve quality and customer satisfaction.
  5. Maximize the return on organizational technology investments.
  6. Develop application policies and procedures consistent with the Virtuous Business Model.
  7. Assess the challenges, technologies, and system approach issues in developing and deploying applications.

 

Evaluation Framework

  1. As a team, create a final list of measurements that will be used to evaluate the technology investment. These measures are likely to include technical and behavioral attributes.
  2. You should also address strategic alignment and business outcomes in your evaluation. These measurement characteristics should be based on the potential list of criteria developed in Step Two. Each team member should be assigned measures that will be observed and reported back to the team as the final analysis of the performance and stakeholder report are developed.
  3. One person from the team must submit the deliverable per the schedule outlined in your Team PBL Plan but no later than Workshop Four.

Questions:

This discussion topic is to be reflective of the course material.  Therefore, use your own words to respond to the following questions:

  1. What other topics would you have liked to have covered in this course?
  2. What reading did you find most interesting and why?
  3. How has this course changed your perspective or outlook moving forward?
  4. Any other topic of interest that you would like to add.

Please be sure to answer all the questions above in the initial post.

MySQL

  

1. use MySQL to create a database of information about used trucks for sale, similar to the cars database used in this chapter. Make up equipment that characterizes trucks. Get the raw data from the ad section of your local newspaper. Instead of using the states in the cars database, divide your town into four sections and use them.

2. Modify and test the program access_cars.php to handle UPDATE and INSERT SQL commands, as well as SELECT.
3. In a separate copy of the preceding work, add a textbox that doesn’t read a SQL statement but text that your database will look for the truck type into the textbox. Following will be links to the data with which you will work.

Penetration testing

Penetration testing is a simulated cyberattack against a computer or network that checks for exploitable vulnerabilities. Pen tests can involve attempting to breach application systems, APIs, servers, inputs, and code injection attacks to reveal vulnerabilities. In a well-written, highly-detailed research paper, discuss the following:

  • What is penetration testing
  • Testing Stages
  • Testing Methods
  • Testing, web applications and firewalls

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

  • Be approximately four pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page.
  • Follow APA7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.
  • Support your answers with the readings from the course and at least two scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. The UC Library is a great place to find resources.
  • Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the quality of your writing.

agile or waterfall (software system design) jan 27

I have mentioned several times that you will be doing a team project this semester…lots to do in the project and lots to manage…

You have all worked on team projects in the past…and some of you (okay, most of you…okay, all of you) have expressed concerns over doing a team projects…and you have talked about the many issues and problems that go along with a team project…

But we won’t let that happen this semester!…because this semester, we have the choice of managing the project as with waterfall or agile…

For this assignment, given what we have discussed about waterfall and agile development, tell me which process do you think would work better in school projects – agile or waterfall?…explain why you think one will work better, and why you think the other will not work as well…be VERY SPECIFIC regarding SPECIFIC class projects and SPECIFIC class project tasks, and how they line up to either agile or waterfall processes…use your past experience with group projects as a reference…

DO NOT GIVE ME DEFINITIONS…

Again, when you have completed this, you should have 1 to 2 pages…if you have any questions about anything, just let me know…

Public Wi-Fi safety

 

  1. Discuss why Public Wi-Fi networks, such as those in a coffee shop, library, restaurant, or airport, should be used with caution. Include common types of Wi-Fi attacks. 

300 words

Personal Database

 

Think of an example of a database that you could use to help manage your personal data.  Using that example, explain the following points:

  • What is the purpose of your personal database?
  • How many tables do you think would be needed to support your database?
  • Give examples of a few attributes that your database would store.
  • Give an example or two of a type of query and a report you may generate based on the data in your personal database.

Share your answers to these prompts in your initial post. Then scan your classmates’ threads and reply to at least TWO classmates whose answers interest you most. In your reply, comment on what you like about his/her sharing. Further the discussion in a direction you deem appropriate.
