Technology Affecting the learning Behavior of ChildrensRupa Bhowmik
It’s important to come together as parents, teachers and therapists to help society “wake up” and see the devastating effects technology is having not only on our child’s physical, psychological and behavioral health, but also on their ability to learn and sustain personal and family relationships. While technology is a train that will continually move forward, knowledge regarding its detrimental effects, and action taken toward balancing the use of technology with critical factors for development, will work toward sustaining our children. While no one can argue the benefits of advanced technology in today’s world, connection to these devices may have resulted in a disconnection from what society should value most, children.
We need to understand the ways technology is impacting our children, and how to encourage the right use of technology so it can have a positive effect on their behavior and development, as opposed to a negative one

Monitoring Toddlers and Technology
The role of technology is increasing in various spheres of life and children have not been left behind as it plays a critical role in their lives. As globalization takes place, many early childhood education systems are developing a curriculum geared towards imparting tech skills for improved communication using digital devices to enhance their thinking. Besides, it is crucial to explore the relationship between technologies, emotions and resultant behaviors of toddlers since the amount of time they spent online has increased significantly. However, the digital environment exposes the children to vices such as cyberbullying that threatens to ruin the good reputation that the internet is offering to kids. Monitoring toddlers and technology is a significant process because it ensures that children gain new skills, improve their internet cognition, and are protected from cyberbullying.
Accordingly, technology plays a critical role in the development of new skills for children in their early years of development. In the article, “The Right Technology for Kids at Every Age,” Tahnk asserts that each baby development milestone is presently accompanied by technological aspects such as smartphones which helps to recognize the ways in which digital tools can be embedded in the minds of toddlers that helps to form ideas on literacy useful in the later stages of life (1). She declares that “if you a parent, you will be anxious to document a baby’s first steps, smiles, and as the toddlers start or go on with schooling, they already have an extensive understanding of comprehending meaningful interpretations of digital tools” (Tahnk, 1). Equally, Radesky in his article, “Mobile and Interactive Media Use by Young Children: The Good, the Bad, and the Unknown,” reports that most toddlers aged three to five years have access to a technological device in their homes and understand how to access information online (2). He found out that “most of the households that have toddlers have access to tablets which exposes the children to technology allowing them to learn new skills daily” (Radesky, 2). Thus, access to technology is allowing toddlers to learn new skills in a monitored environment in the home and school setting.
Besides, moderated technology access by toddlers allows them to gain enhanced internet cognition. AAP Council on Communications and Media on their article “Media and Young Minds” observe that over the years, the ability of toddlers to access the internet has grown exponentially due to the availability of internet in homes and technological devices that create exciting learning opportunities for children (3). They imply that “it has ended up increasing the digital literacy of most of the toddlers marked by an increase in the use of the internet by kids” (AAP Council on Communications.

Research Paper Final paper Is a child’s development.docxaudeleypearl
Research Paper: Final paper Is a child’s development helped or harmed by digitized technologies
Is a Child’s development helped or harmed by digitalized technologies? Explain.
Introduction
Children at a young age go through a process called youth development; a time in which what taught or shown to the child will profoundly impact them for the rest of their life. The child at this time is almost identical to the use of a sponge, which absorbs everything, and is something that they will implement into their lives. Digitized technologies, in this case, acts as the water that the sponge (the child) is to absorb. Controversy about children at a young age with technology has become more and more of a concern for adults, specifically with their parents. The fear is that as the child clings to the technology within the development, the ability to learn various things weakens and short attention span becomes more prevalent.
The myth among parents is that children with technology during development will have more of a problem in learning new things and having difficulty in responding to authority why more parents are becoming fearful of technology becoming more of reliability for their children during their early stages of development. Others may argue that giving the child technology will benefit them in enhancing their multitasking skills and prevent future tantrums. Furthermore, parents believing both sides of the myth, come up with one sound resemblance, that technology must be monitor when children are in the hands of it. It is not the digitized technology that harms the child’s development, but the amount of time a child is with the device.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

2. Technology has become more and more
accessible to younger age groups within the
past five years, especially since the release of the
iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad

4. ...The Appstore launched with 500 Apps, there are
currently over 350 000 Apps available for download.
Apple has sold over 10 billion Apps, as of January
2011.

5. source: Gartner, Inc image: alemjusic - stock.xchng
In today’s modern world where there’s literally an App for
everything you could want or need, it’s no wonder that
23.6% of mobile communication devices sold
from January-March of 2011 have been smartphones;
that’s an 85% year-on-year increase.
6. It’s also not surprising that according to a survey done
in the U.S. by BabyCenter, 64% more mothers have
adopted the use of smartphones, with over half of
them stating that it was a direct result of becoming
a mother.

7. So, what does this mean for the
next generation?

8. Just as the number of Apps currently available for
download is growing, the number of Apps directed to
toddlers and young children are growing as well.
image: dtiriba - stock.xchng
9. image: nicephoto - stock.xchng
Not only are smartphones and
tablets being used by adults and
teenagers, but they are now being
used as educational tools for
young children.
10. Desktops and laptops don’t seem to come as
naturally to toddlers as the touch-
screen technology; it takes much more
advanced hand-eye co-ordination to achieve
the motor skills needed to handle a mouse
and keyboard.

11. Elementary school teachers are even
beginning to use tablets in the
classroom as a learning tool. It
has been proven useful by teachers with
developmentally disabled students as
well.

In this sense, we are now breeding a
generation of true Digital Natives.
14. image: ryencx - stock.xchng
This could lead to many positive outcomes: the
next generation would be almost entirely
fluent with digital media (if we aren’t already),
which would then lead to the development of
superior technology for the future.
15. It could then also lead to an increase
in paper-free options, leading to a
more environmentally friendly
world overall.
image: peej0e - stock.xchng
16. image: theo1krie - stock.xchng
But the fact that children are
starting to use technology at an
earlier age can also cause negative
outcomes.
17. Many parents use technology as “electronic
babysitters”; it is easy to sit your child
down in front of a piece of technology that
will occupy their attention.
source: Elaine M. Doxie, helium.com image: robdav - stock.xchng
18. We need to be careful with how we raise our children
around technology. They can easily become addicted to
it at a very young age if there are no boundaries or
restrictions given. This can lead to a sedentary
lifestyle, and eventually childhood obesity.
image: dspruitt -
stock.xchng
19. With today’s child obesity rate in Canada already
frighteningly high at 26% of children ages 2-17, it is
important to limit childrens’ screen time to 2 hours
or less a day. While technology advances, we must
still keep our health as our first priority, and pass this
message on to future generations.
source: Childhood Obesity Foundation image: morrices - stock.xchng
20. In order to achieve this, we must set a
positive example for our children, and
practice what we preach. After-all,
actions speak much louder than words.

21. As they are already so far ahead in their digital
education, it will be interesting to see how their use
of technology at such a young age will affect this new
generation of digital natives and their everyday lives.
