Case Study Document FaceToFace Facial Recognition

Please click on the link below for the CASE STUDY Document for May 2020 ITGS Paper 3 Examination

CASE STUDY FACETOFACE FACIAL RECOGNITION


Task 1 Strand 3
What IT System / concepts will we need to research to develop our understanding of the Case Study?

Strand 2 
Which institutions, companies or organizations that use the technology will we investigation to enable use understand the application of these technologies?

Strand 1
What are some of the main social & ethical issues that related to this technology and why? 

Task 2 (For Task 2

Refer to CASE STUDY material using the ITGS Triangle, 
i) List the Technologies/Systems/ Concepts explicitly stated in the case study document
ii) List the Social and Ethical issues explicitly stated in the document
iii) List the areas of applications explicitly stated in the case study document
iv) List the stakeholders / organizations explicitly stated in the case study document.

Task 3
From the CASE STUDY material and using the ITGS Triangle,
i) List the Technologies/Systems/ Concepts not stated in the case study document but will be essential for our understanding of the case study
ii) List the Social and Ethical issues not explicitly stated in the document but will need to be investigated in the case study document.
iii) List the areas of applications not explicitly stated in the case study document but will be crucial for our investigation.

iv) List the stakeholders / companies/ organizations  not directly stated in the document who are involved in the development, policies, usage, improvement, of the face to face facial recognition system.

Task 4 (Period 2 Task)
Design an A3 poster showing how facial recognition system has developed from its conception to date. (This project will be grade out 12 marks)

The poster should;
i)  Show the developments, key highlights at each stage of the timeline to date
ii) Show the companies or organizations involved in its development.
iii) Use more of a images / diagrams and less of text
iv) The poster should be appealing with appropriate use fonts and background color.
v) The PDF A3 document should be uploaded on managebac.
vi) Using a poster building software is recommended.

Guidance for Answering Paper 2 Questions

Criterion A;

Part 1: What is the concern all about?
            Why is it a concern?What is the negative impact on one or more stakeholders?
            What extracts from article will you use to support or give the context?
            Use evidences from the article to support the main issue identified
            N/b Do not describe an issue that is not directly stated or implied. The issue should be straight
                  away clear from the article.
Part 2: Who is the primary stakeholder?
            What is the use of the IT system?
            Which part of IT system is the stakeholder using?
            Can this be supported with extract or  an example from the article?
            This answers "Who", "How" and "Why"

Criterion B;
Use the document in the link below to learn how to respond to criterion B.
         Answering ITGS Paper 2 Criterion B

Criterion C;
Use the document in the link below for ideas on how to respond to criterion C;
         Answering ITGS Paper 2 Criterion C

Criterion D:
Part 1: Describe the one problem resulting from the use of the IT system.
            What is the impact of the problem?
            State  one solution to the one problem described
Part 2:  Describe how the solution will work
             NB Technical solutions should be describe with IT terms showing inputs, processing, storage, outputs.
             Non technical solutions should be supported with policies and actions required.
Part 3:  Evaluate some positives strengths of the solution in solving the problem.
            Evaluate some negatives of the solution in solving the problem.
Part 4; Conclusion
            What  areas of the solution do you have issues with?
            What do you recommend for future development of the solution  
            Overall strategy for Paper 2 Criteria
