Describe the perspective of the author(s) of the case study and possible biases of the author(s): ¶ The case was wrote by Kirsten E. Martin, the Assistant Professor of Business Administration at George Washington University, School of Business. She has her Ph.D. from Darden Graduate School of Business, University of Virginia. Her main research interests are business ethics, privacy, technology and stakeholder theory. It might be possible that she is biased towards China for their privacy restrictions and ethical values.

Describe your perspective as the analyst: ¶ My perspective is that of a college student majoring in Marketing and Advertising Management. I am a strong believer in ethics and moral behavior. I have worked for an entertainment company for 8 years and my boss taught me to always do the right thing.

I am an avid Google user though, I probably use Google almost every single day, or at least...

...Part I Research Purpose A. The research purpose for The Department of Energy is to encourage the development of alternate energy sources to deal with the national energy problem. B. This research purpose is clearly defined in this case study. By conducting research about alternative energy sources this will help the department gain information on which alternative energy sources well help them in this crisis. This purpose is measurable because the information gained will help in their final decision of creating alternative energy programs. Research Objectives A. What the Department of Energy is hoping to accomplish is to gain background information on the use of windmills for energy power and with this they hope to create accurate, testable hypotheses. This is the main objective of this department because they are in charge of the alternate energy of the windmill. The objective is to get a better understanding on the past and future of how wind can be a supplier of energy. B. The three components of a research objective are research question, development of hypotheses and the third is the scope of the research. The research question for this objective is “what are the pros and cons of this source of energy”? The development of the hypotheses are not explained in the case study as there are no answers to the questions the department provided. The scope of the research objective does not seem to be restricted to any demographic besides people that have and have not used...
