Outline And Describe The Process Of Computer Forensics

/in /by

Part 1 Key Assignment

You are the crime scene investigator, and you have been called to a home that authorities believe contains child pornography on the owner’s computer. You know that an untrained investigator should never attempt to retrieve data from a computer, and you have not been trained to do so. Therefore, you will be required to seize, secure, and deliver this computer to a trained professional in the lab.

Assignment Guidelines

  • Address the following in 1,500–1,750 words:
    • Outline and describe the process of computer forensics.
    • What types of training must be provided to computer and network forensics investigators? Explain.
    • With regard to the above scenario, as the crime scene technician, what would you photograph? Why? Explain in detail.
    • What if the computer is a personal desktop not connected to a particular network?
      • Should you shut it down? Explain in detail.
    • What if the computer is networked with other computers in a building?
      • What would be the next step after locating the machine? Explain your reasoning.
    • When would computer forensics evidence become inadmissible in court? Explain.
      • What can be done to avoid this? Explain.

Part II key assignment

There is a difference between a crime scene investigator and a coroner’s investigator. There is also a difference between a coroner and a medical examiner. There are 3 ways to determine the time of death:

Unit 3: Module 3 – M3 Assignment 2

 

Dropbox AssignmentAssignment 2: LASA 1: False Memories

The US legal system places a lot of importance on eyewitness memory. Most people would report that they can accurately convey what they saw in a particular situation. However, these ideas are not supported by research. Instead, research shows that memory is quite malleable and is affected by many factors. This research repeatedly demonstrates that people do not remember exactly what they experienced. This module’s experiment will show you firsthand how memory for events is not always one hundred percent accurate.

Access the CogLab demonstration False Memory. Follow the instructions to complete the demonstration to familiarize yourself with false memory. Then locate at least one research study from a peer-reviewed journal that examined how eyewitness memory can be affected by false memories.

Based on your research, respond to the following situation:

You are considered to be an expert in false memories, and a local district attorney has therefore requested your expertise on the following case:

On Tuesday, March 6, 2007, a bank was robbed in Slidell, LA. It was just after opening time, 9:04 a.m., and there were barely any customers, when a car arrived and parked in the side parking lot of the bank. Two men came out of the car and walked to the entrance. Both wore dark clothing. Upon entering the bank, they held out guns and asked for the manager. When the manager identified herself, the smaller of the two robbers ordered her to open the safe. Meanwhile, the other robber, a tall, and burley man, walked around holding his gun in his outstretched arm, and threatening the remaining employees and customers. The manager complied and the smaller robber collected all the money and valuables from the safe. After five minutes, the big robber asked if his companion was ready to go. When he was, the two ran back to their car, and drove away.

The district attorney has asked that you create a presentation about false memory and explain how it might influence this case. He asks that you specifically address the following:

  • Describe false memory and false memory experiments. Use the CogLab experiment to illustrate false memory experiments, special distracters, and normal distracters.
  • Describe at least one research study from a peer-reviewed journal that investigated how eyewitness memory can be affected by false memories.
  • Explain how false memory might influence this particular case. Use specifics from the description of the case, the CogLab experiment, and research to support your answer.
  • Using evidence from the case, the CogLab experiment, and outside research, justify why eyewitness testimonies should or should not carry weight in criminal proceedings.
  • Discuss any procedures which can increase or reduce the occurrence of false memories when reporting eyewitness events.

Remember, your presentation is designed to help the jury understand false memory and how it might influence the eyewitness testimony of this case. You will have ten minutes to present.

Since this is a legal case, you must include formally written slide notes (proper grammar, proper paragraphs, APA formatting, and academic tone) with research to support your claims. The presentation will be a legal document in this case, so make it worthy of being legally binding!

Develop an 5–6-slide presentation in PowerPoint format. Apply APA standards to citation of sources. Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M3_A2.ppt.

By Wednesday, November 19, 2014, deliver your assignment to the M3: Assignment 2 Dropbox.

Watch TedTalk Video And Write A Thesis Statement On…..

/in /by

WATCH: TED Talks: Gary Lauder: New Traffic Sign – Take Turns (4:27)

 

I am looking for a well thought, well written, thesis as a response to this 10 point question. Watch Gary Lauder’s “New Traffic Sign: Take Turns.”  Notice how he makes his point using Statistical References in order to create change.

I would like you to do the same thing! I want to know how you would change your field and I would like you to back it up with research from the field and tell me the source. In other words, in order to CHANGE/IMPROVE your field (addiction/counseling), you would do the following based on what STATISTICAL INFORMATION ???

I want you to reference the STATISTICAL INFORMATION (a minimum of 3 references: 2 Peer-reviewed Journal articles from the professional literature and 1 website Respected by your profession).

If you are unsure about what a peer-reviewed Journal article is, or do not know how to use the University of Buffalo online library to find peer-reviewed Journal articles, please use the library link in course documents.  I’m looking forward to reading your thoughts and the statistics you reference!!!

 

The purpose of this post is to demonstrate your ability to reference the professional literature with statistical support for your thesis. If you reference studies from literature (which by the way you have to do in order to succeed at this assignment), I will want to know about significant results and the statistical test that was used.

Motivation

/in /by

1) use the theories of motivation from the Motivation pdf which is attached 2) Do not have to use references from other resources, using your own words and own ideas would be better 3)remember the answer should include all questions and answer in specific way

 

Description:

We’ve all known someone with a lack of motivation. We share the experience of seeing the kid sleeping in the back of your high school class or the sibling that never really ‘applies themselves’. We say that these people lack motivation, but what does that really mean?

In this assignment you’ll be creating a fake person, getting inside their head, and describing an in-detail plan to motivate them.

Instructions:

This is an individual project. Its fifteen years in the future and you are working in the field of your choice. You work with a group of people, and one group member simply isn’t pulling their weight. You need to write a bit about who this person is and write why they are struggling using one or more of the theories of motivation from the chapter.

You need to write a specific, tangible plan for how you will work to help motivate this group member. What do you think will and won’t work? Do you think this strategy will work in the real world? How would you handle it if your plan doesn’t work?

Deliverables:

Instead of making me read more text, think about creating things like charts and calendars to help your group member. The more concrete the better.

Please submit this to Canvas before next class.
