Your written reflection for this class will be a critical reflection on how and what you will take with you, in terms of multicultural education, when you leave this class.

The first part of your paper will include your Multicultural Education Plan of Action (answer the questions below).
The second part of your paper will include your personal considerations of the possibilities and challenges of multicultural education.
Reflect on your burning questions, your course work, the class discussions and activities and the readings particularly from Affirming Diversity. Write a letter to yourself that reflects your hopes and dreams for your future as a multicultural person/educational leader. Use your plan of action to assist you in writing your personal (narrative) letter. (Keep a copy of this letter and Plan of Action. My hope is that you will refer back to your thoughts and add to it over time! Think of it as a gift to yourself rather than an assignment.)

Multicultural Education Plan of Action:

What was something that surprised you about multicultural education?
What new insights have you had as a result of this class?
What has challenged you?
What will you take with you into your classroom or school as an educational leader?
What are your hopes for becoming a multicultural person and educational leader?
What are your fears of becoming a multicultural person and educational leader?
Now that you know what you know, what are you going to do about it?
The last section of your paper should include your personal reflections related to multicultural education.

Length: 5-7 pages with a minimum of 3 scholarly resources.
References: A minimum of five scholarly resources required

RESOURCES:

Nieto and Bode charge us with the responsibility of becoming a multicultural teacher, which means first becoming a multicultural person. There are three ways that we can re-educate ourselves to become a multicultural person.

We simply need to learn more.
We need to confront our own racism and biases
Becoming a multicultural person means learning to see reality from a variety of perspectives.

How do you personally define a multicultural person? How has your definition evolved through your years of educational practice? What has influenced you and shaped your personal definition?

The focus of this exam is on the content and thought in your answers.

I’m looking for your critical thinking skills as they emerge from what you’ve read and contemplated.

QUESTIONS (Choose 5 questions):

1.    A colleague asks for your assistance to further secure a department wireless network. Which of the following wireless security measures would you configure (WPA2-Enterprise, WEP, WPA-Personal, WPA2-Personal, WPA-Enterprise) and why? Describe in detail the security configuration settings you would use. Also describe why you did NOT choose the others.

2.    You have recently become the system administrator of a new database server. The requirements for the server are as follows: 7 x 24 operational access, an annual 99.99% system uptime, and data not being at risk of being viewed by unauthorized individuals. Describe in detail which of the following security design goals ensure these requirements are met: confidentiality, integrity, availability, accountability?

3.    If you are an enterprise security director, how would you go about choosing security best practices? How might any of the standards you wrote about in Week 1’s paper specifically help in this area? Is it good security policy to always use a best practice? What are the advantages (or disadvantages) of using a best practice?

4.    The rapid growth of the Internet is a contributing factor to the security threat of cyberspace. Discuss other contributing factors to the overall security threat of cyberspace.

5.    Your organization has just recovered from an intrusion, and as a proactive measure your CISO has mandated all vulnerabilities be located and remediated in the network. Describe in detail how you would go about doing this, ie, software, procedures, policies? Is it even possible?

6.    Your enterprise security director has recently mandated two-factor authentication for your critical network systems. Describe in detail all the factors of authentication and how you would implement a two-factor system. What factors would you choose? What do you think about the privacy (personal intrusiveness) implications of some authentication factors?

7.      You have been tasked with evaluating firewalls in order to upgrade the platform currently in place. What types of features and services would you consider necessary to maximally reduce the likelihood of intrusions into your network while also managing outbound traffic from users on your network?

8.    Virtualization and cloud computing are rapidly expanding into the enterprise as viable solutions. Discuss the connections between these two technologies and the security implications of a virtual network infrastructure in the cloud vs. a physical network infrastructure onsite.
