To begin Project 2 (which is described on the Syllabus page linked above), I would like you to prepare a brief memo and turn it as a comment made to this blog post before class on Thursday. We will discuss these during class on Thursday, so be on time and prepared to talk about these with the class.
Your memo should begin with a memo header, have a one sentence description of its purpose in your own words, and five bullet points of information about your possible topics for research, and a concluding sentence stating which of the topics you have selected for your project.
The information that you will put into the bullet points includes: a term, word, acronym, phrase, or topic related to your future career that you would like to make the focus of your research project. After the topic, write at least a sentence explaining why you want to research this particular topic. Be specific and descriptive. Each bullet point is a different, possible topic for your research paper for a total of five possible topics for your research essay. You may write more than a sentence per bullet point if you would like. Remember that each topic should be from your field of study or your future career and not a job (as your previous project was about). For example, your previous report could have been about being a computer programmer, but this project should be about something within the field of computer science, such a programming language, an IDE, an approach to writing code, AI, HCI, APIs, distributed computing, quantum computing, etc.
Finally, you will write one sentence after the bullet points that states which of the five possible topics you choose to write your research essay about. Choose the topic that will do these three things: 1) you will learn something, 2) you will demonstrate what you have learned, and 3) has a rich discourse available through library sources.

SUBJECT: Project 2 Possible Research Topics
In the following memo, I will list five topics as possible research topics for my next project. After listing the five topics I have researched, I will conclude with the one topic that I have chosen for the next project due.
Electric Power System: An electric power system is a network electrical components that is designed to supply, transfer, and use electric power. Because we use electricity everyday and engineers work on these systems, this is one topic that I am very interested in.
DC Motor: A DC motor is an electrical machine that uses direct current, also known as DC, to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. This machine is widely used for many different things, including tools, toys, and everyday appliances, so this would be an interesting topic.
AC Motor: An AC motor is an electrical machine that uses alternating current, also known as AC, to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy. This machine interests me since it has been talked about in previous classes, but I have yet to work on a simulation program dealing with an AC motor.
Integrated circuit: An integrated circuit, also known as IC or microchip, is a set of electronic circuits on one small, flat piece of semiconductor material. I have worked on different integrated circuits in a previous class and would like to know more about them.
Transistor: A transistor is a semiconductor device that is used to amplify or switch electronic signals and electrical power. One laboratory class that I was in previous had us working the entire semester on transistors and the many different circuit layouts that can be created with them. With this in mind, this is a topic that I might like to research more of.
Of the five topics I have looked up and listed above, my research paper is going to be about electric power systems.

In this memo, I will list five possible research themes and conclude with the motif that I have selected for my paper. This preferred topic is earmarked and specific to my choice, of a new career, as a professional technical communicator.
•Technical documentation. Technical communicators are needed for abilities that are strongly associated with the profession but that often seem of secondary importance. Technical communicators may be skilled operators who can use their knowledge to explain and clarify problems. And help in maintaining communication among competing departments to create an end result.
•The next topic for consideration is the test method. This is a method for a test in science or engineering, such as for example, a physical test or a chemical test. It is a definitive procedure that produces a test result. These findings are meticulously recorded.
•Test knowledge that relates to aptitude. Training has specific goals of improving one’s capability, capacity, productivity and performance. It forms the core of skill based labor apprenticeships and provides the backbone of content at trade schools, technical colleges or polytechnics.
•Editing. The editing process can involve correction, condensation, organization, and many other modifications performed with an intention of producing a correct, consistent, accurate and complete work.
•Preparation to be a technical communicator includes being versed in proficient writing by using a variety of tools and media. Being competent in writing, problem solving, product design, collaboration and fluency in modern communication technologies. Learning how to conduct research and explore industry standards for both professional and technical writing.

In this memo, I will list five possible research topics and conclude with the topic that I have selected for my paper.
Typography. Typography is an arrangement, style of using or creating new typeface.
Branding. Branding helps product or service recognizable, eg. a logo.
Infographic. Charts, diagram or illustrations used to represent information or data.
UI/UX design. User interface and user experience design, usually for apps and web.
Packaging design. Packaging design is the discipline of creating the container, graphics and visible outer presence of a product a consumer buys.
I have selected Infographic for my research paper. Infographic is part of graphic design study. Oxford English Dictionary explained as “n. now chiefly Journalism a visual image such as a chart or diagram used to represent information or data in an easily understandable form.” (“Infographic,” 1979). This is an age of information and information is power. At the down side, we all are bombarded with a huge number of information every day. Infographic helps us to understand information faster, easier, and easy to memorize them. Infographic such as charts and graphs make easy to figure out huge numerical data. Diagrams and cutaway views uncover the complex objects, rooms in a building, part of car or anatomy of human body, etc. Signages, maps and wayfinding graphics are also included under the umbrella of infographics. I believe it is an interesting topic since it is very helpful to everybody.

In this memo, I will list five possible research topic related to Health Care Administration and conclude the topic that I am more interested in researching.
Healthcare Regulations: discuss the laws and statutes on the federal, state, and local level that are used to protect the health and safety of citizens.Choosing this topic will show all the different regulation that people are very unaware of and can help benefit them when they are in any medical situation.
Managed Care: Managed care focuses on a number of different business models, ranging from individual physicians existing as part of a network to entire medical facilities comprised of specialists in an array of areas. Choosing this topic will keep individuals informed of all the various managed care programs that can potentially help them and they do not know is available to them.
Obamacare: This healthcare program is designed to provide affordable health insurance coverage for all Americans. Choosing this topic will weigh the pros and cons of the program to the American people. So many people are against this program and other a for it, it has been a serious controversy in today’s age.
U.S health care system: focuses on the United States view on health care that is typically viewed in the realm of capitalism. Many people feel that the health care system is broken leaving many people with care, choosing this topic will help see where the Americans feel the issues lie.
Telehealth: Telehealth services are a convenient, cheaper way to get care for minor ailments. But telehealth prompts new use of medical services. This may drive up spending rather than trim costs. Choosing this topic will discuss the new innovative way of providing healthcare but also affecting cost on Americans.
Of this five topic discussed, I would like to research on Health Care Regulations. Doing this topic will also help me know about regulation that I not familiar within my field of study.
