Project Descriptions

We have seen an exponential increase in the number of cybercrimes and litigations involving large organizations and individuals. Cybercrime remains the greatest threat to every company globally and one of the biggest problems with humankind. 

“How the Russia-Ukraine Conflict Is Impacting Cybercrime” – Paper will make up 8 percent of your final grade. 

Due dates for the papers are provided in the Course Schedule section of this syllabus. 

General Project Guidelines 

Use a minimum of five sources for each assignment. You can use your textbook as a reference, but it will not count as one of your sources. Your sources should be reputable—do not rely on Websites not associated with professional organizations and institutions (blogs, etc.). Any items taken from the Web should be carefully evaluated to ensure that they are appropriate for a college-level assignment. You may want to consult the Collin College library’s guide or Use Collin’s Lexis Nexis database in your research if possible and cite the case, outcomes, etc. http://library.collin.edu/login?url=http://www.nexisuni.com

If you have any questions regarding the validity of a source, don’t hesitate to get in touch with me. 

Your papers should incorporate concepts discussed in our classroom and within the textbook, modules, and other reading materials. 

Formatting Guidelines for Papers 

Papers must contain at least five to six double-spaced pages in 12-point font with proper citations and a bibliography. Use the American Psychological Association (APA) 7th edition style guide for citations and references. The bibliography will not count toward the page total. Papers should contain the following sections: 

Cover page (does not count toward page total)—This includes the paper’s title, your name, the class title, and the date of submission. 
Introduction—This is an introductory statement about your paper. What point are you making, or what are you hoping to discover? Provide the thesis or purpose of the paper here. 
Body—This is the main section of the paper. Make sure you thoroughly fulfill the requirements of the assignment. Do what you stated in the introduction and support your conclusions. 
Conclusion—This is the part of your paper where you give your final thoughts. Based on your analysis, what have you concluded about the points or questions raised in the introduction? 
Bibliography (does not count toward page total)—This contains your reference list, which must be formatted in APA 7th edition guidelines.

 

Build a comprehensive website with information about the job or profession you intend pursue when you graduate, using the skills you learned during the course. Your webpage content should include a Job Description, Knowledge/Skills required for the job, Training/Education required for the job, and Salary/Benefits expected from the job. Use the following sources to conduct your research: Occupational Outlook Handbook or similar references. Make sure that you explain the content (the paragraphs of information about your topic) yourself. Do not simply copy content from other web pages. Include citations to give credit to the source where you found the information you include on your website. Your website should contain at least 4-6 paragraphs of information, arranged in a logical manner (using headings and sub-headings appropriately), and it should consist of at least 3 HTML pages. The home page of your website must be named “LastFirstHomePage.html” where “Last” is your last name and “First” is your first name. For example, if your name is John Smith, you would name your file SmithJohnHomePage.html. You may name your other two HTML pages anything you like. Name your CSS file “LastFirstStyleSheet.css” where “Last” is your last name and “First” is your first name.

Important Note: All files created for this assignment must be new files that you have not submitted for grading in previous weeks. No credit will be given if your HTML file(s) and/or CSS file(s) are identical to any files that you have previously submitted!

The HTML pages of your website must include all of the following:

1. Contains the HTML 5 DOCTYPE declaration on each page
2. Correctly uses html, head, body, and link tags on each page
3. Includes charset, author, keywords, and description meta tags on each page
4. Use title tags to give each page an appropriate title
5. Link all pages to an external style sheet (.css file)
6. Appropriate navigation between pages of your website, using local hyperlinks (coded with relative paths)
7. Your webpage content should include a Job Description, Knowledge/Skills required for the job, Training/Education required for the job, and Salary/Benefits expected from the job.
8. Include at least 3 images representing your job/profession of interest.
9. Include a JavaScript function of your choice
10. Include a hyperlink to a webpage with information about a certification to support your job/profession of interest.
11. Include an HTML table summarizing information about your job/profession of interest.
12. Include an HTML form with at least 6 different types of form inputs and appropriate content for the theme of your website
13. Video or audio file (original and created by you!) with content relevant to the theme of your website
14. Be sure to create relevant and informative content and to design your website attractively.

Your external style sheet (.css file) must include all of the following:

1. Appropriate CSS for main elements in your page (body, headings, horizontal rules, images, etc.), such as page background color, text color, font types, font sizes, font colors, width, height, float, margin, etc.)
2. Include a background color (other than white) or a background image representative of your job/profession of interest.
3. Any additional CSS you wish to add to your website (optional).

Before submitting your web site:

1. Validate all HTML files here, using the “Validate by File Upload” option, and fix any errors that the validator identifies before submitting your web site for grading.
2. Validate your CSS file here, using the “Validate by File Upload” option, and fix any errors that the validator identifies before submitting your web site for grading.

Note: It is critical that you debug and fix ALL errors identified by these two code validators before submitting your assignments. Contact your instructor for assistance if you are having difficulty debugging and fixing your errors because it is imperative that your code files pass validation.

Submission Instructions: Create a zip file containing all files related to your web page (.html files, .css file, image files, and/or multimedia files). Make sure you maintain the necessary directory structure in your zip file so that your webpages will view correctly when unzipped. In other words, if your images are in a sub-folder on your computer, in relation to the folder containing your .html file, then you need to maintain that same directory structure in your zip file, too. Submit only the zip file for grading.

Students will complete 3 parts to a project for the semester.  Each submission is individual and should not be shared with other classmates. Any form of copying and pasting from other sources and projects will be reported to the UT Arlington Office of Student Conduct.

Aim: The overall aim of these projects is to analyze real-world data.  The specific objectives are:

1. To sample two sets of data from the real-world.
2. To summarize each set of data statistically.
3. To perform statistical chi-square tests on each set of data.
4. To describe the above steps, data, and results in a report.

On the cover of each Project Part report, please transcribe the following statement:

“I _________________ did not give or receive any assistance on this project, and the report submitted is wholly my own.”

Write your name in the blank and sign below it. You may use an electronic signature, such as Adobe SignLinks to an external site..

Tasks for Part III

Chi-Square Goodness-of-Fit Test: Using a Chi-Square Goodness of Fit Test with a significance level of 0.05, test the hypothesis that Set 1 is sampled from a Normal Distribution with a population mean equal to the sample mean and a population standard deviation equal to the sample standard deviation. Similarly, test the hypothesis with a significance level of 0.05 that Set 2 is sampled from an Exponential Distribution with a population mean equal to the sample mean. For each test, start with the data classes from your histogram and merge them to ensure each class has a sufficient number of observations. Then, for each data class, calculate the following:

• Numbers of observations in the data.
• Class probability.
• Class expected value.
• Chi-square component values.

Finally, for each test, calculate the chi-square value, describe the degrees of freedom, and explain your conclusion.
