BISC 460 Assignment 1.1 Imagine you have just informed your supervisor that you will need to purchase new computers for yourself and three fellow employees. Your supervisor states that she has heard in the news that computer prices are dropping constantly, and she feels you should wait a bit before making the purchase.

The purpose of recording and storing the information that has been researched is that you have that information readily available if you need to quote anything from it at a later date, if the information is stored on a computer as well as on paper and the paper copy is lost, you can reprint the information. 2.1: Agree aims, objectives and deadlines for the information search. Agreeing on the aims and objectives helps me to specify what I need to research and why I need to find it. Deadlines are important in my research as the reputation of the company can be negatively affected if I take too long on researching one area more than any other area, one example of this is if I spend more time researching schools in Liverpool more than I do on schools in Manchester. 2.2: Identify sources of information.

In the Essay “Pc is Ridiculous!” by Alison, the purpose of this essay is to state her opinion on the fact that she believes Political Correctness (pc) is ridiculous to her! She finds it to be so ridiculous that she begins to insult the people who participate in pc.
