You have taken courses in the key encryption created by Rivest, Shamir, and Adelman (RSA) and have identified that many of the associated applications that they offer could benefit the corporation in cryptography.  You have been asked to present your recommendation for an RSA application to the Board of Directors to consider purchasing at least two of their associated applications, and you know that you must present a strong case for such a purchase. 

• Research the RSA associated applications and identify the associated benefits and costs. 
• Your multimedia presentation must be a minimum of 15 slides with a minimum of four supporting APA references.  
• Include charts and graphs if they support your recommendation

Part 1

A principal wants to determine if a new ACT preparation program is effective. The data are contained in the schools.sav data file. Open the schools.sav file in SPSS. Use SPSS to determine whether a significant improvement existed between student performance on ACT tests in 1993 (act93) and ACT tests in 1994 (act94). Assume that the same students were involved in 1993 and 1994 testing. (This requires a t-test. Review Chapter 10 of the Green & Salkind text for information on paired t-tests and reporting APA results interpretation and writing.)

Create a report that answers the principal’s question. Write these conclusions in formal APA results format. Include your SPSS output to support your conclusion.

Part 2

A pharmaceutical company wants to determine whether there is a need for a new medication based on the data in the electric.sav file. Specifically, they want to determine whether a person is alive or dead 10 years after a coronary incident and whether that is reflected in a significant difference in the patients’ cholesterol levels (chol58) taken when the event occurred. Use chol58 as a dependent variable and VITAL10 as your independent variable. Complete the following:

• Analyze these conditions to determine whether there is a significant difference between the cholesterol levels (vital10) of those who are alive 10 years later compared to those who died within 10 years.
• Include the SPSS output, which validates your conclusion.
• Write a brief paragraph describing your conclusions.

Refer to Unit 6 in the Green & Salkind text for specific information about SPSS tests and APA results interpretation and writing. Pay attention to the Levene’s test throughout for determining whether the assumption of equal variance was met when you make your final decisions about the analysis.

What conclusion did you reach? Write these conclusions in formal APA results format. Include your SPSS output to support that conclusion.

Part 3

Occasionally, you have 1 independent variable that has 3 or more levels or groups. For a parametric data set, an analysis of variance (ANOVA) is the proper calculation. Use an ANOVA to address the following scenario:

A financial planner is interested in understanding the relationship between the dependent variable of the income level of respondents (rincdol) and the independent variable of their education level (ndegree) from the gss.sav data file. Use SPSS to complete the following:

• Run an ANOVA to determine the overall conclusion.
• Use the Bonferroni correction as a post-hoc analysis to determine the relationship of specific levels of degree level to income.
• Explain the overall conclusions based on the analysis, and describe the relationship(s) between the levels of the degree earned and income.
• Write your conclusion of the findings based upon the output using proper APA formatting.

Submit both the SPSS output file and your Word summary. (Refer to the Green & Salkind section about a one-way ANOVA for information on APA results interpretation and writing.)

The scenario:

The Prime National Properties Group is considering selling some of its educational facilities. The facilities have been tracked in an Access database. Shelly Williams, the President of the company, has asked you to prepare a report. Import the Access data in the file Facilities_Data as a table into Excel. Using the PMT function, calculate the monthly payments the company could expect. The company would charge an 8% rate over 10 years. The result should be a positive number. Mr. Williams also asked you to calculate an extra processing fee for monthly loan payments using the IF function. If a monthly loan payment is less than $6000, the company would charge a processing fee of $150; otherwise, there would be no processing fee. Filter the rows to display only those facilities where there is a $0 processing fee. Hide all of the address fields and the processing fee column. Save the Excel file as Lastname_Firstname_Educational_Facilities

For this assignment, you will need the following files:

New blank Excel workbook

Facilities_Data

Educational_Report

You will save your files as:

Lastname_Firstname_Educational_Facilities

Lastname_Firstname_Educational_Report

1. Open the Word document Educational_Report, and then save the file as Lastname_Firstname_Educational_Report
2. Add a cover page of your choice, and then complete the content controls on the cover page.
3. In the report, format headings as Level 1 or Level 2, and then insert a table of contents on a new page.
4. In the worksheet, hide all of the address fields and the processing fee column
5. paste the Excel data into the Word document.
6. Add an appropriate heading formatted as Level 1, and then update the table of contents.
7. In each file, insert the your name as a field in the footer

This week, you watched the Social Media Revolution 2019 #Socialnomics and read The Beginner’s Guide to Social Media.  https://moz.com/beginners-guide-to-social-media

Discussion:
As you review the multiple statistics that display in Social Media Revolution 2019 #Socialnomics, and reflecting on what you read about social media, assess the impact of social media in your life.
Question #1: 
What role does Social Media play in your life? Are you aware of the social media policies of the organizations where you work, attend school, or volunteer? Have you used social media to resolve problems, participate in a cause you are passionate about, or to learn about UMGC? How does Social Media impact your personal and professional communications?

Topic 2: Digital Humanitarianism

This week you also watched Innovations in Humanitarian Relief (PBS online video) https://www.pbs.org/video/innovation-humanitarian-relief-e6xivw/

Discussion:
In the wake of natural disasters and acts of terror, several tech companies are making an effort to improve traditional responses effort in humanitarian relief.

Question #1: 
Do you think that humanitarian aid workers constantly need new ways of thinking, new products and new processes to better respond to disasters? Why or why not?

Topic 3: Cyber Psychology

This week you read: Cyber psychology and cyber behavior of adolescents-the need of the contemporary era  https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1877050917326704

Discussion:

Cyber psychology evaluates how we interact with others using technology, how we can develop technology to best fit our requirements, and how our behavior and psychological states are influenced by technology. Cyber psychology applies psychological theory to explain how individuals interact in cyberspace and how these interactions might affect our offline lives. It offers a new way to define the self and society.

Question #1: 

How does technology impact psychology? List at least three advantages and at least three disadvantages.

Question #2: 

Do you present yourself differently in different online spaces? In what ways are you different and in what ways are you consistent? Why do you think this is?

 Task: Create one (1) instrument that could be used to gather data for your mock dissertation topic. The instrument should be designed to be exactly how it would be deployed to collect data. Since instrumentation usually goes through several steps of field testing, for purposes of this assignment you can submit a deployment-ready draft of your instrument without field testing it. Be sure the instrument collects data appropriately to measure your research question.  If your study will not use an instrument to collect data because your data is archival and already exists, you will discuss your process for data retrieval.

Some examples in below link

 Research and write 5-6 page report (double spaces 12pt) on one of the two topics. Make sure to include bibliography, and quote any language or phrases you borrow from your references with proper citation. 

1. Software licensing, copyrights and patents
2. Testing web applications: strategies and tools
