9) Discuss about the impact of internet and its development to society and business

 Internet is global network connecting millions of computers for exchange of data. Out of world population 40% of the people used internet. China is the large users of internet and also India and United State.Internet has a wide variety of users. Business is one of major user. We can use internet in different ways in business.

Companies always share company information with their customers.
And also product information, companies can use own company web site. They can mention all the details of the company and also their production. Here customers can compare each and every product and company capacity. So, web providing an easy and efficient way for companies to distribute product information to their customers.

Currently we can see most of business advertisement advertise through online. It is very easy and effective method of advertising.

 And also through internet employees can chat any time with any country and send information or data any time. And also top level managers can hold meeting through internet. So, likewise we can do so many works at one time and globally connect every one.

And also we can see internet directly affected in society in different ways.

Earlier we was reading daily news using news papers and also magazine. But now all the news and magazine we can read through internet. Not only local news word wide news we can see through the internet.

And also employment vacancies we can publish in internet. Employees or companies both party they can publish or they can search their requirements in internet. Especially foreign countries vacancies also we can see in internet and also our employees can apply those jobs.

And specially school children or student can get more information and they can learn a lot through internet relevant to the lessons.

Not only student, some other workers they can discover some information relevant to their purpose.

And also we can see so many online services such as online banking, online shopping, ordering foods online also books and all that we can use through internet.

And also we can check about traffic information in some other area. And tourism, software distribution, movie preview, channeling, booking are so many things we can use through internet. So, I think in the future network or internet technology will be double.

Discuss the impact of social media to society and businesses. Are we getting maximum advantage to social media? How can we utilize social media for education?

8) Discuss the impact of social media to society and businesses. Are we getting maximum advantage to social media? How can we utilize social media for education?

Social media is the collective of online communications channels committed to community based input, interaction, content sharing and collaboration. Web site and applications dedicated to forums, micro blogging, social networking, social book marking and wiki are among the different types of social media.

Here are some prominent examples of social media.
  •  Facebook
  •   Twitter
  • Google+
  • Wikipedia
  • Linkedin
  • Reddit
  • Pinterest

Currently in the society we can see most of time used social media, and also positive and negative effect we can see.

Social media help the business in difference of ways. Our traditional marketing medium is the radio. But now we can use TV commercial, facebook, Twitter, LinkdIn or any other social sites. And also marketing cost is lower than others.

Social networking sites have opened the opportunity for all the writers and bloggers to connect with their fans with online. They can shear their articles any time.

And also we can join online with other county partners for businesses. And they can any time chat with them through networking.

And also we can see negative effect of social media. Especially teenagers and student they are spending more time with social media. So, that is directly affect their studies and also their health.

And also Kids can be greatly affected by these social media. Reason is that sometimes people share some photos on social media that contains violence and sex, which can damage the behavior of kids and teenagers. So, finally kids and teenagers involve themselves in crime related activities.

Even our personal information may leak on the social sites, without any tight security settings. That one also downside of the social media.

And other thing is how to utilize social media for education.

We will take facebook , many student and parents already have facebook on their phones and tablets. So, student can create a facebook group for each class. On which can post assignment, make announcement and remind students about important dedlines then parents can also access the site to monitor what is going on in your classroom. And also other educational information related to lessons they can share through facebook.

And also we can use Twitter like facebook. Twitter can provide up to date information and current world issues, student can learn about what is happening in the world. Those are they can use their lessons. And also they can improve their knowledge.

When using blog student can improve their writing skills and they can share with others with using photos and videos. Also can use youtube .

The social media is best assets for student their studies. And help students learn with best practices with other media.

Investigate future applications of smart wearable device. What would be the impact to the society and business?

7)  Investigate future applications of smart wearable device.

What would be the impact to the society and business?


Humans are tool builders. If we can invest our time in developing something, that can the job easier or more efficient. We can see now most of careers based on around technology.
Within past five years tablets computers have become commonplace in many households. As a result even student changing the way they learn and also teachers.
Here very important thing is wearable technology or wearable . Presently we can see
  •  Smart watches
  • Smart glasses
  •  Health monitoring
  • Wrist band and other devices.

Currently market of this technology is rapidly grown up. So in this technology change according to human body and brain. And also will change the way they design and develop applications and a new devices.
We can see most of smart watches need to be paired with a phone to operate no longer need to connect to a computer to set up and update. 

Day to day we can see develop wearable devices with unlimited combination.
When developing these devices industry also can expand under new technology. Companies can establish new areas such as power house in future.

And also how affect this technology for society? If we take smart watches it is a like small watch, do so any things such as alert to text message and posts on social media, display weather alerts, keep tracks, and display time. And also this include basic tools for operate.

And also smart eye wear used to view of map with directions to relevant destination. Most important one is health wear it is more helpful to get measurements of essential body parts.

So eventually these wearable devices are most important and easy to use people. Life is busy and increase people’s day to day needs and wants, so using these devises they can get more benefits for their life. 

What are different computer peripherals which we can use to enhance teaching learning process?

6) What are different computer peripherals which we can use to enhance teaching learning process?

Computer is like magic box for young generation. They do so many works using computers. And also they use computer peripherals for their works. Then they can do their works very easily and efficiently through new technology. Peripherals are also important to teaching learning process.









What are the computer peripherals? Today we can see so many computer peripherals. Among these peripherals we use for several devices for teaching learning process. These are the most important parts for this process.

Earlier teachers used chock board, were teachers takes more time to each lessons. And also have to write all the lessons details on the board. When using projector teachers can display all the lessons with relevant information through computer. So it is easy to operate and save their time.

And also teachers can use power point slides for teaching. Teachers can give better concept for student through power point slides.
And also helps in improving pronunciation of students by using microphones, speakers, video conferencing helps in better communication.
Scanners and printers are also very helpful to both parties. Even how to operate these devices with computers. Student can use their day to day classroom exercise.
Pen drives is most helpful to collect and store information. And also we can move and using any computer we can open and study information any time. So computer peripherals are more helpful to teaching and learning process. And also teachers can use new teaching methods with 
peripherals.

Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using Linux based operating system in a school computer laboratory?

Discuss the  advantages and disadvantages of using Linux based operating system in a school computer laboratory?

Linux operating system created by Linus Torvalds in 1991. And with the commencement of a personal project. It was developed as a free operating system for personal computer and it is source code is free for anyone to download and tweak of their own preferences. It is great for technical users and developers.

And also Linux based operating system is also very suitable for school computer lab because here we can see some advantages and disadvantages.
 
It is free because Windows, UNIX and Macintosh those are very expensive and we have to pay for purchase but for Linux we can download high quality software free of cost and also can install it in computes without paying. It is advantage for school. Because they can reduce their budget.  
And also performance based this operating system Linux provided high performance on workstations and on networks and also can handle many users at a time. And can do any woks very quickly and also mainly this o/s is continuously maintain performance and it is not slow down to memory issues, continuously it is working.

Also we can see high performance application, desktop application and embedded application. So it is very helpful to us because most of users we can see time to time they are updating their computers but Linux o/s is maintenance is very low or nothing. So it is easy to use.

Security part is the major part. Linux is very strong as it is very secure and it is less prominent to viruses. Otherwise when we using computer most of time in school student they don’t know all these things in computers, so then they can use other webs an all that so Linux is the most suitable operating system.

When we come to disadvantages of Linux has a limited selection of available software and also even though Linux has improved a lot in ease of use but windows is much easier.

And also Linux doesn’t support many hardware devices.

So, finally Linux is also having some disadvantages. But compare with other operating system I think Linux is relevant to school computer lab.

Are we timely adapting to new computer technologies?

(1)            Are we timely adapting to new computer technologies?

Today, Computer has made a very vital impact on society. It has changed the way of life. The use of computer technology has affected every field of life and has made our day to day tasks very easy but there are some advantages and disadvantages of new technology.

Advantages of new computer technology
·        People are using computers to perform different tasks quickly and easily. It also saves time and effort and reduces the overall cost to complete a particular task.

·        Many organizations are using computers for keeping the records of their customers. Banks are using computers for maintaining accounts and managing financial transactions. The banks are also providing the facility of online banking. The customers can check their account balance from using the internet. . They can also make financial transaction online. The transactions are handled easily and quickly with computerized systems.

·        People are using computers for paying their bills, watching a movie, listening to songs or playing computer games. Online services like Skype or social media websites are used for communication and information sharing purposes.

·        And also can be used as a great educational tool. Students can have access to all sort of information on the internet. Some great websites like Wikipedia. Can be used email facility.

  


                Disadvantages of new computer technology

Different tasks are performed automatically by using computers. It reduces the need of people and increases unemployment in society.

Many people use computers without positive purpose. They play games and chat for a long period of time. It causes wastage of time and energy. Young generation is now spending more time on the social media websites like Facebook , texting their friends all night through smart phones which is bad for both studies and their health. And it also has adverse effects on the social life.

The data stored on a computer can be accessed by unauthorized persons through networks. It has created serious problems for the data security.


People use the computer for negative activities. They hack the credit card numbers of the people and misuse them or they can steal important data from big organizations.

How can we utilize different kind of computers and computer paradigms to enhance teaching learning process?

How can we utilize different kind of computers and computer paradigms to enhance teaching learning process?

Past two decades computer have been used as a tool in the teaching learning process. Today school and so many institutes held or create courses specifically aimed at improve the computer literacy, as well as how to use new technologies and how to use computer with other curriculum. The Computer technology we can use very effectively specially with teaching learning process.

Earlier teaching with chock board, Instead of writing on the board, today teachers can present lessons by showing something on the computer and projector in the classroom, so the whole class can see this. And also use now interactive whiteboard. it is very easy to use.  So, no any enable to read and student can save as a record summary of class discussion or group works or can posted on the course web page.


And also teachers can use power point slides even video presentation  for teaching. There for they can create own presentation using power point and video and can uploading these course web page.
 Teachers can create course web pages. Each courses teachers can includes      - syllabus
                   -class schedule
                   -assignment
                   -links to readings
                   -on line class discussion
                   -posting of student works

                   -online testing

Then all students go through this web page. Even can’t miss any lessons.
When using microphones, headphones, speakers, specially prepared software and also video conferencing chat and email helps in better communication.

 Student can use E books/online libraries/online encyclopedias/online magazine/journals/broaches/research articles helps to their studies.
And also can use testing and evaluation.

-         Keeping records of students for their academic scores and keeping for student personal history
-         Creating question bank for student , online testing and evaluation
-         Analysis and interpretation of data
-         Previous year question papers and sample papers using web site
Here we can use also different computers
          - Desktop machine
          - Smart phone
          - Tablets
          -  Hybrid computers
          -  Wearable computers 

Eventually different computer paradigms are very important to teaching learning process. Always it is easy to operate and it has quick methodology. So I think currently this is the way of teaching and learning.

What are the possible applications of tablets for education? What is your opinion on using Tablets for primary education?

What are the possible applications of tablets for education? What is your opinion on using Tablets for primary education?

With over 65,000 education apps designed especially for tablets. Those apps based on 

                     ·        Simple math exercise
·        Listing to stories
·         Learning the alphabet
·        How to made creative things
·        Learning styles

Tablets are changing the way we learn. It’s portable, fast and easy to use and tablets enhance directly student learning experience. Here when student learning, immediate feedback and all classroom participate in the lesson. so in the classroom has smoother communication and transmission of material between teachers and student .when they are doing assignment student can create documents and immediately upload them to the teachers electronic folder. Then teachers can view the documents immediately, and keep them permanently stored. And also Teachers can upload assignments, links, or feedback for students via these shared resources or folders. So during learning time we can save the time.

Tablet offer audio-visual tool

  •     Camera               ·            Voice            ·       Video recording

These facilities are very helpful to improving their knowledge. By using like camera, voice recording students can do self presentation, discussion like those things therefore they can build their personality.   

Simple math exercises, listing to stories are also develop active learning especially for literacy and numeracy. Because student always use the tablet for activities. So students think fast and also their brain working very fast so they can become a active learner.

And also when discussion time they are searching and find the different aspects of information relevant to the topic. So teachers can record it and then play it back on a lager screen for student to view and discuss one by one. And also this is help to collaboration between student and teachers.

Student adapt quickly to new technology and this is support to student self directed, active learning and higher level of motivation. And also develop their IT skills.
And also they can use e book facility. It is very important because reading is a best way to improve their knowledge.
So eventually I think this is the best way in learning. Because this type of learning covered all educational areas and student brain keep the maximum level.
