I now live in the United States with my lovely wife and my two-year-old son. I am intending to pursue an associate degree in Business Administration. One new thing I learned after the scavenger hunt activity was where to find the student catalog in both Moodle and Student Portal. Previously, I thought the student catalog was only…

The most dangerous social engineers are those who can invent a lie so believable that they are able to successfully impersonate a legitimate employee without ever raising any suspicion. This tactic is particularly harmful because if real employees can be tricked into believing the criminal is actually a coworker or a member of upper management, it is not very difficult for a charismatic social engineer to manipulate the employee into divulging extremely sensitive information, or even worse,…

Every human has morals and ethics they developed as they grow up, but when these are tested we are put in a situation where at times those morals and ethics are left behind. A lot of times a good person will act unconsciously and this will make them seem as if they were a bad person. Milgram’s study reveals how far ordinary people are willing to obey orders given by an authoritative figure even if it involves hurting another human being. In the study, he conducted he randomly selected people to…

Katsushika Hokusai was a Japanese artist during the 18th and 19th centuries who is known for woodblock printing, “Ukiyo-e” painting, and manga art.

an iPad was. Not too many people owned a standard tablet. Now, it is more common to see people reading on tablets instead of inside books. Thanks to the iPad and other tablets, the Kindle ebooks app and iBooks are now widely used. The popularity of e-readers has eliminated many long-standing bookstores because more people prefer instant access to the books they want to read. With a tablet like the iPad, it is really important to take good care of it. Even though so many people own them, they…

According to a study done by Butler University, use of offensive language to describe a situation, thought, or even another character, is one of the most cited reasons for banning a book. Supporters of banning say profanity can influence the actions and thoughts of readers, especially younger readers that may not have heard or read many corrupt words in books. Huckleberry Finn, a book commonly challenged for its use of controversial racial language, is one of those books that many view as…

A proctor is an impartial third party whose tasks are to supervise a student during an examination and make sure they comply with all the rules and processes of that examination (Proctor, n.d.). University of the People requires proctored exams just as any other university. When you attend to an offline university, the proctor is generally the course instructor because you are required to be in a controlled environment and a designated room. However,…

proctoring my exams would be among the Senior pastoral staff at our church in Fredericksburg (or whichever church we find ourselves attending regularly at that time) that meets all the criteria for a proctor. I am not related to anyone on staff and they would be emotionally removed from whether I pass or fail. They are people of integrity and are over 21 years of age. They also have access to the internet and…

Is it at all possible for text-book to be able to keep up with the constantly changing technology that is being used in the fast-paced business environment? I plan to try to answer this and several…
