You are a team leader for the Grantham Inc., a consulting firm for security solutions. Your team is working on a project that involves a governmental project at a nuclear power plant. The information is extremely sensitive, and involves following many regulations. This is giving your team a negative disposition. You found out that John is not paying attention to the details of the regulations like he should. Ebony is an environmentalist and is against working on the contract, but has been assigned the project so the team has a representative that is worried about the environment. Finally, Ibrahim has been very vocal about his opinions of the federal regulations. Your report is due in a week.

How to write in Third person 7 Common Mistakes Common Mistakes writing in APA Generally, you will use outside materials to support your point. For instance, in this assignment, you obviously will be using a code of ethics as an outside source. Whenever you use other materials, you need to either paraphrase that material or quote it. However, you are not supposed to quote large chunks of the material. Here are two guides on paraphrasing and quoting: · Computer Science Research Guide – Quoting and Paraphrasing · The Writing Center Also, when you use outside materials, you need to let the reader know what materials were used, so if they want to look up more information, they can. This process of letting the reader know what materials are used involves two steps: citing and reference. The citing is done inside the paper or PowerPoint slide and tells the reader which reference is used on the reference page or slide. The reference is all the information the reader needs to go find that resource. There are some standards which organizations and publishers use for referring to these materials so that what they publish is uniform. For instance, the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) is a popular organization for computer science and information systems. They have their own ‘style guide,’ which includes the standards for writing in that organization and for others in computer science. The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) style guide is often used by electrical engineers. The American Psychological Association (APA) style guide is a standard for the liberal arts. Grantham, as a whole, uses this as the standard for all of their general education and many other courses. In this class, you are free to use the ACM, IEEE, or APA way for referencing your materials. Here are some links to show you how to cite and reference the materials in any of the three formats: · Computer Science Research Guide – Writing and Citing · Computer Science Research Guide – Examples · How to easily reference APA with Microsoft Word For your submission, choose ONE of the following ways to answer the above questions.
