I will give 5 points extra credit on this research paper if you bring a piece of paper back to me that is signed by someone in the LAC telling me that you had your paper reviewed by them. This paper will be due at the beginning of class on Tuesday, December 6. No late Research Papers will be accepted. I have listed your topics below. Make sure that you find a topic that can be discussed in five pages.
 


Topic 1

Do research on some type of wireless device(s) and tell us how it has helped and/or hindered the field that you are going into. The wireless device could be a PDA, laptop computer, etc. You do not have to limit yourself to one device. There might be multiple devices that are used in your field.

Topic 2

Look at different types of computer devices and decide on what type of device could help people in the field that you are going into. You can look at devices that people in our local area do not have, but would really benefit from. Some larger cities might have the device. In your paper discuss why this device is important and why it might not be adopted. You can also develop an implementation plan for how it could be implemented locally.

Topic 3

This topic will be a self selected topic. It has to be computer related. You can select the topic and it must meet my approval.
