Powered by Beeline ReaderThe article on IRB this week discusses broad consent under the revised Common Rule. When you are doing any sort of research you are going to need to have your research plan approved by the University’s institutional review board or IRB. If you have never heard of this term before, please take a look online and find a brief summary of what it is about, before you read the article. Please answer the following questions in your main post: What are the main issues that the article addresses? What is the Common Rule? How is this issue related to information systems and digital privacy? Please make your initial post and two response posts substantive. A substantive post will do at least two of the following: Ask an interesting, thoughtful question pertaining to the topic Answer a question (in detail) posted by another student or the instructor Provide extensive additional information on the topic Explain, define, or analyze the topic in detail Share an applicable personal experience Provide an outside source (for example, an article from the UC Library) that applies to the topic, along with additional information about the topic or the source (please cite properly in APA) Make an argument concerning the topic. At least one scholarly source should be used in the initial discussion thread. Be sure to use information from your readings and other sources from the UC Library. Use proper citations and references in your post. ============ Write 250 words. Use Scholarly articles and APA 7 format. Mandatory to site the given 2 articles
Risk management is one of the most important components in empowering an organization to achieve its ultimate vision. With proper risk management culture and knowledge, team members will be “speaking” the same language, and they will leverage common analytical abilities to identify and mitigate potential risks as well as exploit opportunities in a timely fashion. In order to consolidate efforts, the existence of an integrated framework is crucial. This is why an ERM is necessary to the fulfillment of any organization's goals and objectives. In your final research project for the course, your task is to write a 7-10 page paper discussing the following concepts: Introduction - What is an ERM? Why Should an Organization Implement an ERM Application? What are some Key Challenges and Solutions to Implementing an ERM? What is Important for an Effective ERM? Discuss at least one real organization that has been effective with implementing an ERM framework/application. Conclusion – Final thoughts/future research/recommendation The paper needs to be approximately 7-10 pages long, including both a title page and a references page (for a total of 9-12 pages). Be sure to use proper APA formatting and citations to avoid plagiarism. Your paper should meet the following requirements: Be approximately seven to ten pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page. Follow APA7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion. Support your answers with the readings from the course, the course textbook, and at least FIVE scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. The UC Library is a great place to find supplemental resources. Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the quality of your writing.

Powered by Beeline ReaderWhile this reading is not part of ERM, it does deal with risk - and the risk to human subjects. When you work on your dissertation, you will have to get approval from UC's IRB board, so it's helpful as you work through your class to get familiar with what you will need when beginning to work on your dissertation.

Powered by Beeline ReaderStudents - Plagiarism will continuously be checked even after the term is over. Should plagiarism be confirmed, one of the consequences will apply. This could potentially change your final grade. YES - your grade can be changed after the term is over!
As a reminder, before completing the final research paper, please review UC's academic honesty policy again:
Academic Integrity/ Plagiarism (This information is included in all syllabi at University of the Cumberlands)
At a Christian liberal arts university committed to the pursuit of truth and understanding, any act of academic dishonesty is especially distressing and cannot be tolerated. In general, academic dishonesty involves the abuse and misuse of information or people to gain an undeserved academic advantage or evaluation. The common forms of academic dishonesty include:
Plagiarism includes copying and pasting material from the Internet into assignments without properly citing the source of the material. Plagiarism can happen by mistake - so you need to be careful!
Episodes of academic dishonesty are reported to the Vice President for Academic Affairs. The potential penalty for academic dishonesty includes a failing grade on a particular assignment, a failing grade for the entire course, or charges against the student with the appropriate disciplinary body.
Plagiarism Offense // Consequence:
Remember - Self-plagiarism is still plagiarism and not allowed – you cannot use previous class work from this or any previous courses whether or not it was originally submitted to University of the Cumberlands. SafeAssign is an international global database - meaning it checks for plagiarism across the globe.
Powered by Beeline ReaderIn week 7, students will examine maturity models in IT governance and look at some risk management best practices. Additionally, students will examine ways on how to analyze and understand risk inventories. Lastly, students will examine risk from a human perspective focus and how rules govern the protection of human when participating in research.
Powered by Beeline ReaderWelcome to Week 7, CLASS!
I trust, we had a good week!
Please review the following article to know more about Enterprise Risk Management.
https://www.pmi.org/learning/library/enterprise-risk-management-application-implementation-5831
The activities this week will help us to know about the role of IRB in the dissertation, which include:
When conducting research, we must sometimes gain permission from the governing body. In research, we call this the Institutional Review Board (IRB).
For Discussion, please ensure we respond to the prompts in our own words. If we need to quote or use content from a source, ensure that we paraphrase the information to demonstrate our knowledge of the content. Remember to ENGAGE the other students in the class in dialogue, as they are discussion thread.
• Providing the ITS835 Final Project Assignment: Be sure to answer each question and site your work to support your position.

Data mining is the exploration and analysis of large data to discover meaningful patterns and rules. Data mining aims to predict future outcomes. Additionally, data mining techniques are used to build machine learning (ML) models that power modern artificial intelligence (AI) applications such as search engine algorithms and recommendation systems.
Benefits of Data Mining:
While a powerful process, data mining is hindered by the increasing quantity and complexity of big data. Where exabytes of data are collected by firms every day, decision-makers need ways to extract, analyze, and gain insight from their abundant repository of data.
Data mining has two primary processes: supervised and unsupervised learning. Data mining software is a tool to convert raw and unstructured data into useful information in order to optimize the decision making ability. This software offers enterprises an ability of predictive analysis which helps them forecasting marketing strategy and consumers behavior. Steps involved in data mining include data collection, data processing and then software sort the data depending on user’s result in the form of graph or table.
