This week, please consider a work-related decision that will need to be made soon at your educational organization.

It should not be:

A decision that involves personal, family, confidential, or non-education-related matters.
A decision that only involves a yes/no answer or simple alternatives such as whether to hold next years play day outside or in the gymnasium.
A decision that only involves you or very few people.
A decision that can be made quickly.
A decision that is not a major concern and has no consequences or only minimal consequences.
It should be:

A decision you will need to make while working in education or a decision that an acquaintance who works in education will need to make.
A decision where there are multiple options being considered.
A decision that will involve multiple stakeholders like administrators, teachers, parents, the community, etc. These are just suggested stakeholders.
A decision that will take significant tim

Introduction

The United States does not have a unified data privacy law at the national level as, for example, many countries in Europe do. Laws such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) are comprehensive and effective, but only protect consumers in a single industry.

So, what if an individuals private data is subjected to a security breach not covered by HIPAA or GLBA? Without an overarching federal mandate in effect, a company that discovered its data had been compromised is not compelled to notify all the affected individuals. Notification, and possible liability to provide identity theft protection, comes only in laws including mandated security breach notifications. To bridge the gap in privacy protection, most states have enacted their own privacy laws.

With the help of the Internet, you can research these gaps and find out what your state does to protect your privacy. For instance, the purpose o

Odysseus is ever described as a man of many wiles, and he often lies.  Is it possible to make sense out of the narrative of the Odyssey if we were to assume that every supernatural adventure Odysseus narrates in the Great Wanderings (Books 9-12) is a lie?  Are there any elements of those stories that are vouched for by "Homer" as the narrator of the Odyssey?  Conversely, in the sections of the later books, when we as readers know that Odysseus is lying to Eumaios, Euryclea, and Penelope about his identity, his stories are totally devoid of all fairy-tale elements, and are completely plausible, though in fact false. Can you work out any consistent standard to judge when Odysseus is telling the truth and when he may be lying?  And in a different, though related direction, when, in Book 24, Odysseus encounters his father Laertes, there is no longer any danger, and no longer any need for Odysseus to be careful or deceitful;  why then does the bard make Odysseus dec

Using the library and other available Internet sources, search for an example of an official breach notification letter. Analyze the notification letter. Write a summary of your findings. The summary must include:

    The specific laws alleged to have been violated in the breach notification letter

    An appropriate response to the specific breach notification letter to be sent to the victims of the data breach

In his celebrated essay Short on Heroics, the classicist J.F. Carspecken states that Jason is chosen leader because his superior declines the honour, subordinate to his comrades, except once, in every trial of strength, skill or courage, a great warrior only with the help of magical charms, jealous of honour but incapable of asserting it, passive in the face of crisis, timid and confused before trouble, tearful at insult, easily despondent, gracefully treacherous in his dealings with the love-sick Medea.
Such a reading of Jason's character prompts one to question just what a hero is.  We have seen several different examples of them throughout our reading, yet Apollonius Argonautica clearly challenges these pre-existing notions both of what heroic conduct is and how heroic character is revealed.  How then does the heroism of Jason stand in relationship to that of, say, Odysseus?  How does it stand to that of Heracles?  How do these different characters reveal thei
