Critically examine the view that it is vital to engage a range of stakeholders to enhance the design of a curriculum. (e.g. Government ministers, Policy officials, parents, teachers, children, employers).
The overall aim is to demonstrate to the marker your understanding of the unit content (legal and ethical issues, including the Registered Nurses professional codes and standards) by relating them to the specific elements of the scenario. To do this you will provide an analysis: a detailed examination.
Use the applicable parts of the scenario as a basis to demonstrate your understanding of the unit content e.g. beneficence, deontology, duty of care, tort of negligence, Registered Nurses Standards for Practice, The ICN Code of Conduct for Nurses etc.
Windows Server Deployment Proposal
Overview
Each student will create a detailed, organized, unified technical solution given the scenario described below. The submission will be in a written format, with at least one diagram, and may include additional diagrams, charts or tables. The assignment is meant for students to enhance their mastery of the material and to provide a creative and realistic way in which to apply knowledge from this course.
Scenario
We Make Windows, Inc. (referred to as WMW) has hired you as an IT consultant for implementing their Windows network infrastructure. WMW is a new advertising firm, and they are currently hiring staff, establishing two locations, and have a need to get their internal IT services configured. They do not yet have an IT staff, but when they do, the IT staff will take over all aspects of IT administration. You are required to supply WMW with a solution which describes the implementation and configuration of their core IT services. Cost is not a significant concern WMW wishes to implement the right solution to fit their needs now and for the next 2-3 years.
There are several details about WMW which will have an impact on your choices:
WMW will start with 90 employees, in the following departments:
o Executives (9 employees) manage and run the company
o Accounts and Sales Department (15 employees) perform market research and maintain accounts
o Creative, Media and Production Department (49 employees) advertising
o Human Resources and Finances (12 employees) perform HR and financial duties
o IT (5 employees) manage IT for the company
o WMW will have two sites, one in Los Angeles and one in New York. Most staff will be located in LA, with at least 1 person from each of the departments above located in NY.
Networking equipment is already in place for both sites. A secure tunnel (using IPSec) will be established between the two sites so that inter-site traffic will be securely tunneled over the Internet. You may make whatever other assumptions you wish about intra-and inter-site connectivity. Please be sure to state these assumptions.
Security mechanisms (e.g., firewalls, intrusion detection) will be handled separately, and there is no need to describe them.
Some departments will want their data to remain private from other departments (e.g., Finances personnel will not want Production staff to see the companys financial details). You may make assumptions about how data should be shared or kept private, but they must be stated in your paper.
Assumptions can be made regarding any information not included here; all assumptions should be identified, however.
Topics to Cover
Your document should cover the content presented in the course. The outline below contains recommended points to cover. You are free to add other related information.
Describe the technical and business reasons for each choice, citing other resources as appropriate.
The Windows Server 2016 operating system should be used for all aspects of the solution.
The topics include:
New Features of Windows Server 2016
Describe new features of Windows Server 2016 that WMW can take advantages of.
Deployment and Server Editions
How many total servers are needed? Which roles will be combined?
What edition of Windows will be used for each server (e.g., Standard, Datacenter)?
Will Server Core be used on any servers?
Where are each of the servers located (which of the two sites)?
How will the servers be deployed? Manual or automated?
Active Directory
Number of AD domains?
Will there be any Read-Only Domain Controllers?
How will the second site factor into domain controller placement? How will AD sites be configured?
How will AD organizational units be organized (considering how group policy will be used and users will be organized)?
DNS and DHCP
DHCP scope design (e.g., lease times, number of scopes, address range)
Will a form of DHCP fault tolerance be implemented?
Will DHCP reservations be used for servers?
DNS namespace design (e.g., domain name(s) chosen, split DNS for Internet/intranet, zones)
How will DNS be handled for the second site?
Application Services
How will applications be deployed? If using Group Policy, what are the details on how Group Policy will be used to deploy the software? Which software applications will likely be needed?
File and Printer Sharing
What shares might be needed?
Explain File Permissions
Assignment Requirements
There are specific requirements for the assignment: The final submission should contain at least 6 pages worth of text written by the student (not counting title page, images, diagrams, tables, or quotations), but may be longer, not to exceed approximately 10 pages worth of student-supplied text. (With the required diagram, and other images, title page, etc., the final submission may end up being more than 10 pages in length.) It must be double-spaced, have 1-inch margins, and use 12-point Times New Roman or 10-point Arial/Helvetica font. A title page is required; APA format for the title page is optional.
At least one diagram must be included (not counted towards the minimum length described above); this could be a diagram describing Active Directory components, DHCP/DNS design, file share hierarchy, or anything else that is worth displaying graphically to enhance the readers understanding of the proposal. Additional diagrams, images, or tables are welcome.
The submission must cover all of the 6 major topics outlined above. Each choice should be explained with technical and business reasoning. The solution should be reasonably detailed. Additional topics may be covered as desired.
The structure of the final submission is flexible. There is no specific format required, although it should be organized logically and represent a single, unified solution. It is likely that the format will include separate sections for each of the 6 topics required, as well as a summary.
At least two non-textbook, non-LabSim, non-Wikipedia reference is required; preferably, this would be a best practice guide or similar content from Microsoft or an experienced provider of Microsoft solutions.
Provide an APA style reference for the study at the top of page one.
The purpose of the evaluation is to comment upon the adequacy of the article as a research report by analyzing each component of the study methodology and statistical design.
Point out any errors or poor procedures you detect, as well as strengths or desirable procedures. Use the outline below as a guide in your analysis.
Note that for items 2 10 you are to state whether the research report provides adequate information or whether the procedure used in the research study was adequate.
Use a five-point Likert rating scale of very good to very poor to indicate the overall adequacy of each item. Be sure to support your position on each item.
The last two items should reflect your overall perspective about the article.
