Lab 2: Preparing a Research Report with a Footnote
Problem: You are a college student enrolled in an introductory technology class. Your assignment is
to prepare a short research paper (350-400 words) in any area of interest to you. The requirements are
that the paper be presented according to the MLA documentation style, contain at least one note
positioned as a footnote, and have three references. At least one of the three references must be from
the web. You prepare a paper about two-step verification (Figure 2–83).
Perform the following tasks:
1. Run Word. Modify the Normal style to the 12-point Times New Roman font. Adjust line spacing
to double and remove space below (after) paragraphs. Update the Normal style to include the
adjusted line and paragraph spacing. Create a header to number pages. Type the name and
course information at the left margin. If requested by your instructor, use your name and course
information instead of the information shown in Figure 2–83a. Center and type the title. Set a
first-line indent for paragraphs in the body of the research paper.
2. Type the research paper as shown in Figures 2–83a and 2–83b. Insert the footnote as shown in
Figure 2–83a. Change the Footnote Text style to the format specified in the MLA documentation

Two-Step Verification
In an attempt to protect personal data and information from online thieves, many
organizations, such as financial institutions or universities, that store sensitive or confidential
items use a two-step verification process. With two-step verification, a computer or mobile
device uses two separate methods, one after the next, to verify the identity of a user.
ATMs (automated teller machines) usually require a two-step verification. Users first
insert their ATM card into the ATM (Step 1) and then enter a PIN, or personal identification
number, (Step 2) to access their bank account. If someone steals these cards, the thief must enter
the user’s PIN to access the account (Tanaka).
Another use of two-step verification requires a mobile phone and a computer or mobile
device. When users sign in to an account on a computer or mobile device, they enter a user
name and password (Step 1). Next, they are prompted to enter another authentication code (Step
2). which is sent as a text or voice message or via an app on a smartphone. This second code
generally is valid for a set time, sometimes only for a few minutes or hours. If users do not sign
in during this time limit they must repeat the process and request another verification code
According to Moore and O’Sullivan, users should register an alternate mobile phone
number, landline phone number, email address, or other form of contact beyond a mobile phone
number so that they still can access their accounts even if they lose their mobile phone (54).

(Marey). Microsoft and Google commonly use two-step verification when users sign i
to these
websites (Moore and O’Sullivan).
Some organizations use two separate methods to verify the identity of users. These two-
step verification procedures are designed to protect users’ sensitive and confidential items from
online thieves.
