Introduction to Health Information System

Introduction to Health Information Systems, or ISC471, was an undergraduate online class that I had enrolled into during Spring 2018. It also known as BHI 501.
Our instructor was Nafees Qamar, Ph.D.
For our class (along with homework and online discussions), we each had to do a project. My project went over counter-attacks towards cyber-attacks and caution with sharing sensitive information over the Internet.
I did an report and a powerpoint. I did my best to record my voice with my laptop. During the time I wrote the term paper, I had listed most of the citations in Chicago Manual of Style.
