I'm excited about getting to my last specialization course, and my last course before COMPS! I've taken an ethics course that wasn't in this program and really enjoyed looking at the issues. Professor Collins has been hard at work revamping the eLearning program, and this is the first course that I've taken that has her updates - much more comprehensive than the previous course.

Assignment 1: Defining Intellectual Property (100.0/100.0) - It's so great to be within finishing distance of my classes! This paper took some research and putting together, but it came together very easily. Lot's of things to discuss!

Assignment 2: Protecting Copyright (100.0/100.0)

Assignment 3: Researching the Copyright Act of 1976 (100.0/100.0) - My Mentor in this class is very encouraging and uplifting! It's refreshing to have one that acts more like a cheerleader and less of an anvil. Did well on this paper, and am looking forward to completing the remaining assignments, and get to comps!

Assignment 4: Assessing Academic Property and Organized Labor (100.0/100.0)

Assignment 5: Mitigating Computer Fraud in the Online Environment (100.0/100.0) - Interesting assignment, that took some time to research.

Assignment 6: Expecting Privacy in the Digital Age (100.0/100.0) - These assignments require new research for each assignment, but I find them interesting. Two more assignments until COMPS! It hardly seems that I've been at this program for 345 days! It's been a lot of work, but pretty fun for the most part!

Assignment 7: Cyber-bullying as a Violation of Personal Rights (100.0/100.0) - This assignment deals specifically with young people 18 and under who either bully or are bullied by fellow students. While, it may apply minimally to college students - I don't operate currently in that area either, so, this assignment held little meaning for me professionally. It was still an interesting assignment.

Assignment 8: Developing a Policy and Resources Manual (100.0/100.0) - It feels terrific to have finished the last paper in my course of instruction. Monday I start the comprehensive examination! It's been 352 days since I started the program, and each day has been an adventure! Mostly ups, but a couple of downs were along the way, but this can be done!
