Describe how printers should connect to the network: via a print server or via direct IP printing. Explain your reasoning and the benefits and drawbacks of your chosen method.

 
Touchstone 4: Formal Report
ASSIGNMENT: Now it’s time to put all the thought and effort from the five Touchstone Tasks together to create your final project in this course.
Imagine that you have been asked by Greenfield Properties to provide guidance and advice about how they should set up the IT network in their new building. Review the scenario and client requirements about Greenfield Properties again if needed, including the various job roles and devices to be supported.
Your assignment is to write a formal report to the company’s executives mentioning your recommendations.
Since your target audience is not highly technical, you will need to explain technical features and their importance in simple terms. Do not use a lot of jargon that they will not understand; if you do use jargon, you must explain each term.
Your report should focus on benefits and drawbacks and show an awareness of what the company’s decision-makers want as the end result of this network rollout. In other words, you should focus on what their overall goals are. Availability is certainly one and security is another. Consider what you know of the company from the scenario, and think of other outcomes they may also want; then make sure your report addresses how your recommendations will help with achieving those outcomes.
Along with your report, include a cover letter addressed to the president of the company, Chris Nelson. Remember, your goal in this letter is to introduce yourself, provide context for the report, and create an impression that you understand the company’s needs and have given careful thought to your recommendations. The letter should also provide your contact information, in case they have any questions.
As you respond to the prompts and questions in the Touchstone 4 template, consider what the client is trying to accomplish and what they have shared about their expectations. Use these perspectives to shape your responses to the questions.

The Bully in the MirrorAntonio, 4th GradeMirror Mirror on the wall why must I be theBully that has to fall. I beat on kids around the schoolThe mirror told me it wasn’t cool. List one strategy that you can help Antonio implement in order for him to stay on the right path

Ashford 5: – Week 4 – Assignment
Bullying…ChangeRead the following essay, written by Antonio, a fourth-grade student. 
The Bully in the MirrorAntonio, 4th GradeMirror Mirror on the wall why must I be theBully that has to fall. I beat on kids around the schoolThe mirror told me it wasn’t cool. The mirror told me to change.My ways I have beat up kids all by days. I have no friends.It’s just not right. The mirror said cause you like to fight.I am a bully how could this be. The mirror is starting toChange me. Reflections are now flashing back to me.Someone plant the seed inside of me. Now the mirror hasshown me poor. I’ll change my ways and startnew days the bully is no more part of me.Any bully can change
Imagine that you are Antonio’s teacher. Antonio obviously wants to make a change. As a fourth grader, it is almost impossible to do this alone. Therefore, he has handed this writing piece to you, his teacher. Understanding that this transformation involves far more than you and Antonio, you will devise a plan to help him change his history and be a good person. 
First, read the Kenny (2007) article and discuss how Antonio’s “looking glass self” has been influenced by the agents of socialization. Be sure to explain how this looking glass self is related to his “answerability” and what role that has in his desire to change his behavior.
Next, devise a game plan for Antonio’s change:

Share one lesson or activity that can be completed with the whole class. The lesson or activity should focus on the importance of awareness and bully prevention. Describe the lesson or activity and how it will benefit the class as a whole.
List one idea showing how the class can support Antonio’s change. Explain how you would help your students support their former tormentor.
List one strategy that you can help Antonio implement in order for him to stay on the right path (e.g., literature, a check list, or a change in routine).
Provide one suggestion you would share with Antonio’s parents, so that this change in behavior is a true partnership between you (the teacher), the child, and the parents.

Use the information from your text and the Pacer’s National Bullying Prevention Center website to create your plan. You must include two scholarly sources in addition to the two given.
