Information and Knowledge Essay
Information and Knowledge
In this modern era of information and communication, someone's status in the world often depends
on what that person knows. We, as humans, often think that what we believe is truth and stored in
our brains as knowledge. I tell you however that just because you have a belief in something doesn't
always make is knowledge and definitely not truth
. For example, I could believe that President
Clinton will be assassinated before he leaves office later this year. That does not mean that I have
knowledge of this event; it was just a lucky guess (if it came to be). An ancient greek philosopher I
am sure you are all familiar with, Socrates, once stated that true belief has to have "an account" or a
justification
...show more content...
No one can say that you are not in pain, the belief of the pain is in the first person and not reliant of
external data or justification. Anything that does not fall into this category is a belief justified by
something outside the first person or yourself. Beliefs about the external world need justification.
The easiest way to explain this theory is to put it in a dialogue or "dialectic" form. Like a
conversation between two people where one person proposes an idea or theory and the other person
tries to reinforce or find fault in the other persons reasoning. For simplicity's sake let's say that I had
the following dialogue with Joe, the guy with the dog on the mat.
Joe: Hey Craig, my dog is on the mat. I see that my dog is lying on the mat. And sensing any
physical object through one or more of my five senses has to guarantee that the object is in fact there
in the real physical world.
Craig: Wait a minute Joe, just because you are having sense data of the dog does not mean the dog
exists in the real world. Let me explain, what you are seeing is a mental (electrical) representation of
a dog on a mat. In your dreams you see, touch, taste, smell, and hear things. Are they real? I don't
think so. I cannot doubt that you are having the sensory data, that is a self–justified belief. I can
think of another possible scenario of you seeing the dog on the mat. You are actually dreaming, all
this is empty space. Your belief cannot be justified

Informational Interview Examples
I conducted my informational interview on September 20, 2017 with an Ohio University graduate,
Christopher Nason. Mr. Nason graduated with a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering. He
currently is a member of a reverse engineering team at the Defense Logistics Agency which is part
of the Federal Government Department of Defense. The company provides replacement parts and
equipment for the United States
' Armed Forces. Chris's job involves analyzing designs or schematics
of older parts still used by the military
. Since this piece may no longer be manufactured
commercially, Chris's team analyzes the data in order to identify the items so that they can be
reproduced internally. His position involve a lot of research and project management.

I did not know about the opportunities available for mechanical engineers through the federal
government. I anticipated the field being a job of designing parts for military use, but I discovered
that the company is much more. After my interview, I had a great understanding about what the
DLA does. There are many engineering opportunities throughout the company. There are engineers
that do design and outsource the manufacturing of products for military use, but there are other
engineers such as Chris that work in reverse engineering teams. They take previously made
products, and they analyze and research them. They reproduce and create designs so that these
pieces can be outsourced for manufacturing. One aspect that stood out to me was the amount of job
management skills that were required for the position. Mr. Nason's job entails working on a product
from start to finish. His team is responsible for organizing research and design as well as
outsourcing and managing the manufacturing process of the piece. Lastly, my interview reinforced
the concept of teamwork in engineering. Chris works with a team of engineers every day. They must
communicate ideas and organization amongst themselves and to the companies that will
manufacture the products that they have

Informational Interview Assignment
Informational Interview Assignment
Business is one of the most important careers in order for the world to grow and develop financially.
In this assignment I tried to interview somebody who really inspires me and likes how he teaches.
I've decided to interview Professor Timothy Myatt, he's my Business Tech teacher, and he has
shown me many things since I have started at Trevecca. At the beginning, I asked him if he felt
something for his profession like a calling. He told me that actually he didn't, his initial career of
interest was Science or Chemistry. Professor Myatt, didn't really know what he was up to, but he
definitely knew that he was into technology.
Later, I asked if the person he was in college impacted him on his career or on his major, and he said
yes, he wanted to figure

What he answered was that a lot of people don't think about the same way as he does, but that what
people don't realize is that there is many mathematics in the computer side, it foundation is
mathematics. So the reason he thinks that why IT works is because of mathematics, so he would
suggest as much math as possible if people want to do research. Finally I asked him who does he
admire, he said that he can be an IT professional another place but in Trevecca he is a teacher. So
what he admires the most is teachers who make their students learn and become interested on their
class. Make students feel that they learn something when they come to their class, he wants his
students to walkout form his class and think what they learned that day and think like " wow I have
never thought that before" At last, what we were able to know from his was his spirit for the IT
department since college. He told me a little more personal things about this life, his ups and downs.
I was able to know a little bit more about his

Informational Text Analysis
This week there was a lot of material that was looked it. The topics included historical fiction,
informational text, and nonfiction. All of these genres are very different. With historical fiction and
nonfiction, the textbook went over what each genre is, the evolution of each, and some of the
categories within the genre. The articles this week were about informational text and historical
fiction
. Along with the textbook and articles there were many books required for our picture book
project, which were about many different topics. Historical fiction is a fun yet informational genre
for people to read. "Reading historical fiction provides students with a vicarious experience for
places and people they otherwise never know" (Rycik, Rosler,

Informational and nonfiction books are similar in a lot of ways, but there are some key things about
them that are different. They are the same in the fact that the information in both are true, the major
difference is that informational text does not need to have all the organizational tools, that a
nonfiction book requires. There is not a table of contents, glossary, or index. Informational text is
important because they "build background knowledge and support content learning" (Yopp, Yopp,
2012 p.480). Informational books can be used when learning about a particular subject like
nonfiction, informational text are just more relaxed when compared to nonfiction. An informational
text I read this week is titled Ladybugs and this book is about ladybugs, tells different facts about
what they are, the body of them, and other important facts about ladybugs. The difference between
this book and the nonfiction book about Martin Luther King Jr, is that in Ladybugs there isn't any of
the organizational tools used. This book is meant to teach a reader about ladybugs without it looking
like a typical nonfiction

Information Is Knowledge
Information is not knowledge, merely one of the raw materials needed to obtain it. Just as a pile of
bricks is not a house –even though bricks are the raw materials necessary to build it– a pile of data is
not a doctoral thesis, not even a newspaper article, although information is also the raw material you
need to write them.
Nobody in their right mind would mistake a house for a pile of bricks. However, this rather clumsy
equivalence between something necessary –but not sufficient– to obtain an end in itself is often
found in the public discourse on knowledge and information. This causes serious damage when
understanding and managing the processes for acquiring knowledgeand assessing the capacity for
action and communication between

Because –for example– there is no point in having a high percentage of Internet connections if
people go online only to play games, look at naked women, or do their shopping... This doesn't
mean that it is not important to have a high number of technologically well–connected users; quite
the reverse: it allows a number of important things: e–mail, browsing web pages, important
relationships over the social networks; it stimulates commerce, offers significant opportunities for
learning, increases efficiency in official transactions, avoids travel... in addition to a long list of
other advantages that of course include and imply easy access to information –to vast quantities of
information. But none of the above is the same as having attained the knowledge society.
In a developed country like our own an important part of the population is already living in the
information society
, as it is relatively easy for them to obtain this information –the data– or to know
where to get it (quite aside from the matter of the quality of that information; but for the sake of
simplicity, let us forget this aspect –which is nonetheless far from trivial). Now, just as very few
people know how to transform piles of bricks into houses, there are also very few people who know
how to transform information into useful knowledge.
So what do we need to be able to arrive at

Informational Interview Paper
In the process of conducting an informational interview with a professional working in a career field
of my interest, I have chosen to find someone who is in the field of Project Management.
Considering that the Bachelor of Arts degree in Enterprise Leadership would give me a solidified
background allowing students to hone their skills in innovation, entrepreneurship, communication,
critical thinking, problem solving and leadership (iowajpec.org) along with a Business
Administration minor, I think I could obtain the abilities for this career and is something I'd like to
pursue. The person I've interviewed is Brittany Hoffman who has recently been promoted to Project
Management Senior Consultant on the Implementation Strategy and Operations

I've learned that your first job may not be what you were anticipating but it's always good to just
kind of get your "foot in the door" and see where that can take you. I think the biggest thing I've
learned aside from the skills you need for this certain Project Manager position, is that once you get
the job, you're in. The hardest part is actually getting the job and the work you do within the
company is what counts. If they see you as a hard worker, and a fun person to work with, you will
see opportunities for advancement. For a Project Manager specifically, you'd need to be a strong
communicator. You want to be able to work together and understand the roles along with having
problem solving and decision making skills as well as experience in the industry and being familiar
of company goals and expectations. After the interview, my desire to shoot for this kind of position
has not changed. I've learned that Allstate is a company I'd look into based on the culture Brittany
described. The way she also described her leadership role also aligns with what I'd envision and that
is something I can see myself enacting. Knowing the kind of leadership characteristics that take
place, I can use that knowledge to improve upon what I've already learned to prepare myself

Information Privacy
Information Privacy
Name of the student
The privacy of personal information related to the data stored on the computer systems is termed as
Information privacy. The information privacy is related to privacy of personal data that is collected
by various organizations for personal use. The private information can be stored in medical records,
political records, criminal records, financial data, data on website or any information related to the
business related which needs to be protected and keep it secured. Thus information privacy may also
be called as data privacy.
An important aspect of information sharing is information privacy

technology, there has been increase in vulnerabilities related to personal

There are also various other concerns that are to be dealt by the law enforcement agencies that are
related to theft of identity in an organized way, mounting the entire country or the groups that are
targeted for mass disruption, and also invasion of privacy.
An individual can do only little from his/her side to protect against loss of privacy and identity theft
.
Thus to prevent and remediate identity theft, the FTC i.e. Federal Trade Commission has established
a web page i.e. http://www.consumer. gov/idtheft which will act as a central repository and source of
information and will prevent from any theft to identity. By introducing the Congress towards the end
and limiting the use of Social Security Number (SSN) as much as possible in the legislation by the
government. Colleges, universities and business organizations should not make use of SSN on forms
and cheques and should also not display it on the public lists, ID cards of students or badges. The
student information that is available on the college websites and portals and are easily accessible by
any general public, may also result in loss of data and identity theft by utilizing preapproved and
unsolicited credit cards. Thus students are raising such issues themselves (Chronicle of Higher
Education, 2002) to prevent form loss and theft of information and identity. Also, the need for use of
SSN should be examined and questioned by every educational institution to protect data theft.

Informational Interview
Informational Interview As an Accounting major, I am very interested and have become fond of
learning about the varying business aspects within the sports industry. As a result, I decided to
conduct my interview with a professional that is associated with the business operations of athletics.
The person that I interviewed was Dawn Reynolds, the Senior Associate Athletic Director for
Business and Finance here at the University of Miami. After initially getting in contact with Ms.
Reynolds a few weeks ago, I was finally able to meet with her briefly and conduct my interview on
November 30, 2010, in room 261 in the Hecht Athletics Center. Just to give a bit of background
information about Ms. Reynolds, she is from Elmira, New York and now

I recommend that you take every opportunity that is given to you. You must be willing to start in an
entry level position and work your way up. Q: How did you get to your current role? A: I worked in
the University 's Budget Office for three years before working in athletics. I began my career in
Athletics in 1993 as the Senior Business Manager where I worked with day to day activities and
reconciling. I was promoted to Assistant Athletic Director in 1999 and Associate Athletic Director in
2005. On September 2010, I was offered the position I hold now: Senior Associate Director for
Business and Finance. Q: What do you like/dislike about your job? A: I love the people I work with
and love being a part of this great program. I enjoy the people I am around and I enjoy working with
numbers. The only downside is the amount of hours you have to work. There are times where I have
to work long hours and put in a lot of extra time. Q: What has been the most memorable moment of
your career thus far? A: When you are in my position, you get to travel with the football team so I
must say the most memorable moment of my career was being able to watch the Hurricanes win a
National Championship at the Rose Bowl. Q: What keeps you motivated? A: I try to always have a
positive outlook on things. I have a great husband and a great family that supports me with my
work. My personal

Essay On Informational Interview
Informational Interview Report
The person who I conducted my informational interview was Chang Wang, Esq. I was acquainted
with Mr. Chang Wang through a class he taught at the University of Minnesota. Professor Wang is a
man of many professions; he is a lawyer, a professor, an actor and a writer. I could tell that he is
extremely accomplished in his many careers through the list of schools he has taught at, awards he
has received, the many licenses he's obtained, and the number of publications he has authored.
Because of his busy schedule, I contacted him a month before the interview to solidify a schedule
with him. I requested half an hour of his time, but he was very generous and gave me over an hour
of his company. I wanted to interview Mr. Wang for my assignment because I always wanted to pick
his brain and learn more about what he did at Thomson Reuters
. Aside from completing this
assignment and getting to know more about his work, I also had a different agenda of ultimately
requesting a letter of recommendation in the

Because of the lack of rights in China
, he is zealous about the American legal system and is a strong
proponent of democracy in China. Whether in his lifetime or after, he truly hopes for a better China
with a "rule of law". I think Mr. Wang intentionally decided not to share the technicalities of work
because he wanted to share the bigger picture of his work. His approach of sharing the significance
of his work reminded me of the parable of the three stonecutters; how the first two stonecutters only
saw the individualistic means of their work and how the third stone cutter embraced the broader
vision of his work. I don't know if my future career will be the "best" of all the jobs, but I will have
to find the significance of what I do and contribute to society someway, somehow with that

Informational Interview Reflection Paper
I feel the the informational interview went fairly well. I actually had the opportunity to work for
Mrs. Kaur last summer so I knew her a little bit and was comfortable asking her questions. Also,
having some prior knowledge of her work and background allowed me to ask address concerns that
I may have not been able to without that pre–exisitng connection. I was able to learn a great deal
about what actually goes into running a business and also learned about the great range of skills

Informative Speech On Anxiety
Anxiety is one of the most common illnesses in America. Your palms can get sweaty, you get
nervous and your blood pressure can increase. Some students can go through anxiety every day just
by having to go to school or present in class like I am now. I am presenting a speech in front of a
decent size class some of who I am familiar with and some of you who I barely know so that can be
a bit scary and nerve racking.
I will discuss what Anxiety is, how to diagnose it, and also how to treat it. It is very common and
I'm pretty sure most of you know basically what it is. But just in case I will go over the main
important things to know about Anxiety. According to the National Institute of Mental Health,
anxiety disorders involve more than temporary worry or fear
. For a person with an anxiety disorder,
the anxiety does not go away and can get worse over time. The feelings can interfere with daily
activities such as job performance, school work, and relationships. There are several different types
of anxiety disorders. Examples include generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder
, and social
anxiety disorder. According to the American psychological association, Anxiety is an emotion
characterized by feelings of tension, worried thoughts, and invisible changes like increased blood
pressure. You can have OCD, phobias, panic attacks, and PTSD. OCD is basically anxiety that takes
the form of obsessions and compulsions. I know many of you guys are scared of spiders or bees and

The Importance of Information Literacy Essay
Information literacy skills are used for academic purposes, such as research papers and group
presentations. They are used on the job–the ability to find, evaluate, use and share information is an
essential skill. They are also used in consumer decisions, such as which car or vacuum cleaner to
purchase, are critical. Last but not least, they are used by informed citizens in participating fully in a
democratic society through voting (Kenney, 2007).
Information literacy is conceivably the foundation for learning in contemporary environment of
continuous technological change. As information and communication technologies develop rapidly,
and the information environment becomes increasingly complex, educators are recognizing the need

They know where to look for the answer to both the common everyday information needs and for
the answer to the more perplexing, less–easily–addressed, problems of life. They are familiar not
just with where to look but also with the tools and processes required to find those answers. Zabel
(2007) points out that efforts to train students to be adept at attaining information through a variety
of mechanisms must be "integrated, relevant, ongoing, collaborative, and applied" if they are to be
successful in preparing those students for success in their academic and professional careers (Zabel
,2007).
For students to be adequately informed about the value of the university library and resources such
as the Internet in information retrieval there must be a careful collaboration between teaching staff
and library staff (Kenney, 2007). The focus in this task, of course, is preparing students not just for
the immediate research project at hand but rather to prepare them to be life long learners, to prepare
them to be successful and productive once they leave the academic environment and take up their
chosen careers (Lauer & Yodanis, 2012).
A search for information can take a variety of routes. It might entail a visit to the university library
or to some other organization that maintains information on a particular subject. Academic libraries
are indeed a critical tool in information

Informational Interview Research Paper
Informational Interviews
When you meet with people for informational interviews, you can learn what they do in there jobs,
how they prepared to do it, what they do and do not like about their jobs, and what advice they have
to offer you. They may even have ideas for you after you share your goals and interests with them.
Remember that an informational interview is not a job interview. Applying for a job is an entirely
seperate process. While you can expect an informational interview to give you confidence and
expand your network, you cannot expect it to result in a job offer. Just relax and enjoy learning
about occupations.
When contacting people to request informational interviews, introduct yourself and explane that you
are gathering career information and how you got their names. Ask for 15 to 20 minutes of their
time to talk about the career field in which you are interested. Since every job is slightly different, it

Through conducting this informational interview, I have learned to have a successful and great
experience for it, you will need to do a little research ahead. For instance, this assigment asked to
research about the person and the company that the person worked for. When I did my research on
the person and gathered information, I was able to connect with her as we were both born in India.
Even though, we are years apart in age, there still seemed to be similarties in our personalities as we
are interested in the same career field. This helped me connect with her personally which is more
important as it will help her recognize me instantly. In addition, researching about her company

General Information Essay
ACC 476/726 – Auditing Discussion Case Questions Fall 2004 General Information The audit
discussion cases are real–world examples of problems that auditors face in practice. Each individual
case is brief, and every member of the class should read the case prior to class and come prepared to

issues related to the topic currently being discussed in class. The questions can usually be answered
using your own opinions and the case information. The issues to be discussed for the cases follow.

they are used to manipulate earnings in future periods. Actors: Oak Industries CEO, CFO, and

that creating "rainy day" funds is just conservative accounting. Why should investors and the SEC

earnings? What other factors might motivate firms to understate their earnings? 3. Auditors have
generally been more concerned about overstatements of earnings than understatements. Auditors
have also normally only been concerned when those overstatements exceeded certain materiality
limits, such as 5% of net income. Has this responsibility increased to

Writer's Workshop: Informative
Writer's Workshop: Research Paper– Informative
What is an Expository Writing?
'Expository' is a synonym of 'explanatory'. An expository essay, thus, is a piece of writing that
explains or informs. It is meant to be based on fact and free of the writer's prejudices. Opinion is
often expressed, but only if it is backed by fact. For example, if someone asked you to write an
essay on the causes of World War II, you might write about Germany's losses in World War I, the
Treaty of Versailles, the fall of the Weimar Republic and the rise of Hitler led Nazism. In other
words, everything would be based on verifiable fact – an expository essay.
The expository writing process is centered on four activities:

Informational Interview Paper
For my informational interview I interviewed Hasty Elementary School Counselor Candace
Thurman. Mrs. Thurman earned her B.A. in Psychology from Salem College and a MA Ed.S in
Mental Health Counseling from Gardner Webb University. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor
and a Licensed School Counselor. Her maternal grandfather suffered from mental illness and was
homeless. Seeing the impact his condition had on him as well as her family compelled her to choose
a career in mental health. Mrs. Thurman worked in the middle school setting for 11 years. This year
is her first year in an elementary school.
It was interesting to learn about her everyday routine. She begins with periodic check–ins with
students to make sure everything is going okay. She then handles referrals from teachers about

Thurman obtained a degree not solely in school counseling which allows her more flexibility. She
shared with me that the least rewarding part of her job is when working with the families or students
and she feels like she has tried a variety of concepts and still cannot see a difference being made. It's
a struggle because as a counselor she wants to be able to help people. On the flip side of the
spectrum however, she described that being able to see kids blossom and find their way and
overcome challenges is such a gratifying experience. I could confidently say meeting with her
confirms the many reasons I've considered a career as a school counselor and plan to apply to school
counseling graduate school programs. Her job clearly has its demanding moments however I sensed
that overall her satisfaction with her job was very high. She plays an important role to enriching the
lives of many students and through that she finds much purpose in her job

Information Asset: Cell phones and laptop itself is the information asset
Asset Category: Data/ Information is the asset category.
Threat Cause: Negligence is the cause of the threat.
Countermeasures:
The basic prevention countermeasure is a strong password for the laptop and the mobile device.
Must install the GPS tracker in our laptop and mobile phone so that we can track the device when it
is lost or stolen. Should activate the microphones even though if the phone is off. Must install a
protection software and also should not enable the automatic login to the applications. The final
thing is backup the data frequently.
Social Media:
The employees accessing their social media sites from the company 's network results in risks when
they click on the malicious links on social networking sites which let the hijackers attack their
system. If the hackers target the employee in the company then he will gather all the information
about the employee like Facebook profile, mobile devices, passwords, working hours and also tracks
the target. We also face the danger by some applications like games from where the hackers can gain
the passwords and personal information.

Informational Text Importance
Importance of Informational Text:
In the world we are living in, children are inundated by information. We as teachers need to teach
them strategies to process all the information they are taking in. It also helps children prepare
themselves for the real world.
Research and testing shows that children do not understand and have difficulty with informational
text. Teaching strategies for informational text will help children use their prior knowledge and use
it across curriculum. Children find more interesting things to read about in informational text. I have
found that when given a choice my students, especially the boys will choose informational text.

aspects. Every human endeavor is influenced by information technology and the increasing rate at
which what it can perform includes. One area of human endeavor that information technology has
greatly influenced is the practice of medicine, specifically veterinary medicine. Not only has

Working, volunteering and interning are all acceptable ways to gain experience in the field of
veterinary medicine. The reason behind schools requiring experience is to ensure that the student
knows what they are getting into before they spend thousands of dollars (approx. $20,000/yr.) and at
least four years of their life in an extremely intensive academic environment. Many people have an
altered idea of what being a vet is about. A lot of physical and emotion endurance is necessary to be
a successful veterinarian. Many people are unaware of that.
The specific undergraduate course requirements to get into a school of veterinary medicine vary
between the schools. All of them are science intensive. Most require a well–rounded education. The
University of California at Davis school of veterinary medicine requires one year of general biology,
one year of general chemistry, one year of organic chemistry, and one year of physics as far as lower
division requirements. Upper division requirements include a semester of biochemistry, a semester
of systemic physiology, a semester of vertebrate embryology, and a semester of genetics. On top of
that they want their applicants to have taken courses in English composition, humanities, social
sciences as well as statistics. Simply taking these courses is not enough, they need to be completed
with a GPA above a 2.5. However, the competition has an average GPA of 3.45. The
