In present scenario computers have become one of the key parts of human life.
Computers are playing a key role in every individual’s life starting from kids to business
professionals. The new generation is very much familiar with computers and internet
(Mahmoodand Hafeez, 2013). There is no doubt that computer are giving a comprehensive edge
to human life and taking the life standard to a new extent. At present computers are being used in
every filed such as communication, education, transport, medical, science, etc. and plying vital
role in their development. Computers have made human’s life so easy and comfortable like never
before. Starting form communication to learning and shopping everything is so instant and easy.
But the impacts of technological developments are not only positive. There is a dark side too
which cannot be neglected while evaluating role of computers in human life.

ABSTRACT
With the proliferation of technology, the field of e-learning has garnered significant attention in recent times. This is because it has allowed users from around the world to learn and access new information. This has added to the growing amount of collected data that is already being generated through different devices and sensors employed around the world. This has led to the need to analyze collected data and extract useful information from it. Machine learning (ML) and data analytics (DA) are proposed techniques that can help extract information and find valuable patterns within the collected data. In this paper, the field of e-learning is investigated in terms of definitions and characteristics. Moreover, the various challenges facing the different participants within this process are discussed. In addition, some of the works proposed in the literature to tackle these challenges are presented. Then, a brief survey about some of the most popular ML and DA techniques is given. Finally, some of the research opportunities available that employ such techniques are proposed to give insights into the areas that merit further exploration and investigation.

How Technology Affect College Students
1.0 Introduction
It is a fact that we live in a high technology world with classrooms of high technology. Students now have the chance to enjoy the benefits of using iPads in classrooms, the opportunity to integrate tweets during presentations and the teachers also have the benefit of teaching students through the use of smart TVs. The use of internet facilitates communication internationally or even nationally and helps the students maintain close ties with family and friends most especially those leaving far away. In accordance to different researches, many college students use internet for interpersonal communication which is mostly through emails, instant messaging as well as chat programs (Gemmill & Peterson, 2006). The major benefits that are associated with the use of technology while teaching include increasing the interaction of students, adding diversity of the lessons and enabling the idea of bringing new knowledge and perspectives to the class. But despite the advantages that students may enjoy from the use of high technology, many other negative impacts may result as a result of using the technology inappropriately or over-usage. This essay majorly aims at evaluating the main benefits that students are likely to embrace when they use high technology in classes as well as negative impacts that may affect students learning and concentration in class. The essay also aims at evaluating the literature showing the studies that have earlier been conducted on the impacts of technology to college students. For teachers, students and parents to enjoythe best of the advancement in technology, they must be able to recognize their weaknesses and try and get rid of them ( DeLoatch, 2015).
Just like any other aspect, the advancement in technology has it benefits as well as its consequences. Many of college teens spend a significant portion of their time in screen and most especially computers and smartphones. Not all the time the teens spend on the computers or the smartphones goes to waste since it may also be beneficial to the student’s college experience. The student is able to learn about various technological devices as well as several uses before going to the college and thus the student is more prepared for the class. The best advantage of useof technology is the ability to connect with people both internationally and nationally but many students use internet just to fill all the time they have, neglect normal social interactions or even avoid other life responsibilities (Inoue, 2007). Other negative implications of technology to students may include loneliness, increased stress, disruption in paying attention in class, reduction in the grades attained, st.

Impacts of Technology in Classrooms
In over forty years,researchers have shown the impacts of technology and have been so essential in our day to day lives. Technology affects many areas of a society both positively and negatively. In modern –days, most schools have embraced technology as an aid for teachers and students to enhance their schoolwork. Students get more engaged where technology is involved, thus making them retain more information (Page 2012). However, some argue that technology has brought more harm than good and a few will be discussed in this essay. My stand is dwelling on the advantageous side of technology in empowering every party involved.
Technology is a medium for providing distance learning. In olden days, students could take distance courses at community colleges or universities after which they would receive course documents in the mail. They would then be required to send assignments to their teachers at the educational institution, and this process could be long and complicated. In this era, students can take courses over the internet which is so convenient and still qualify to work in the fields related to those courses (Page 2012). This has made it easier for working students who cannot get access to educational institutions.
However, technology is sometimes misused by learners. In as much as technology has drastically impro ...

Climate Change and Maritime Sector Essay Sampleessayprime
Climate change can be described as a significant and a long lasting transformation in the
statistical distribution of weather patterns over a period of time that range from decades to a
million years (Daufresnea, Lengfellnera and Sommera, 2009). The change may be in terms of
average weather conditions or in the overall distribution of weather around average
circumstances (Durant and et.al., 2007). The climate of earth has been undergoing many changes
throughout the course of history. Most of the climatic changes are attributed to small variations
in the orbit of earth that brings significant alteration in the amount of solar energy received by
planet. However the current climatic change has been on account of human induced variations
that have been proceeding at an unprecedented rate in the past 1300 years (Millien and et.al.,
2006). These climatic changes have posed a huge impact on the overall ecosystem as well as
many economic activities. The activity carried out by maritime sector happens to be one such
area which is required to be given a due emphasis.
This essay is prepared with an aim to investigate into the difficulties arises while dealing
with alcoholic patients in primary care in Europe. In this context, the researcher will evaluate the
issues concerned with doctors in tackling the psychological character of alcoholic patients.
Moreover, the discussion will provide how doctors motivate such patient to recover from their
lethal conditions. In spite of declining in the wine-producing nations, Europe remains the
province on the globe with largest production as well as consumption of alcoholic beverages
along with commensurately more levels of harm related to alcohol. In the survey of North
America it was found that over 4.5% of women and 23% of men are involved in the alcohol use
or dependence throughout their lifetime. The country is about the middle of the worldwide
league of intoxicating consumption. Thus, in all European Union’s member states the alcoholic
harms are considered as a major public health problem. The use of alcohol and its harm are
increasing sharply in the some recently independent regions of Eastern Europe.
Globalization, i.e. the mechanism of continuous integration of different economies of the
world, is strongly in progress all across the globe.Supported by heightenedtempo of
technological changes, by liberalization of trade and by rising significance of supranational
regulations, globalization has opened up the nations to a competition much more intense than
ever before (Globalization: A Brief Overview). Globalization mainly entails the spread of social,
economic and cultural viewpoints in all parts of the world. It also enables high level of
uniformity among various places due this spread. This has been possible because of greater
integration of nations through the growth of investments, international trade and free of flow of
capital.

Leadership is considered as the most important function of management in order to bring
effectiveness and to achieve objectives of the organization. Leadership helps in initiating action,
motivating employees, providing guidance, creating confidence and maintains synchronization in
the organization (Singh, 2008). The phenomenon of this style of leadership was given by Jamers
MacGregor Burns. There are different types of leadership styles including transformational
leadership which encourages employees and brings positive change among them who follows it.
These types of leaders are generally active and they are eager and passionate to perform the task
and they also include their employees in order to bring success. They help in increasing the
potential of employees through their traits and positive character which gives inspiration to them
to change their outlook and perception in order to achieve organizational objectives.
“Let dangers go; thy war shall be with me,but such a war, as breaks no bonds of peace”
This quote is by Thomas Kyd from the Spanish Tragedy. Bell-Imperia, an important
character in the Spanish Tragedy have spoken such lines to Horatio, who was her lover. With this
quote, she simply means that how she intends to love him. When speaking in regards with formal
level, as per Thomas, the passage reflects the love of parallelism, balance, oxymoron and
antithesis. This passage shows a sympathetic side to Bell-imperia. Earlier she was obsessed in
regards with the thoughts of revenge, but as if now, her intellect was very playful. Attributed
from the above passage, the current essay will discuss in brief in relation with the various
instances that has taken place in the Spanish tragedy story and their context in regards with
politics, psychology and physiology. Two other famous stories by William Shakespeare such as
Doctor Faustus and King Lear will also be explored in this report. All these plays have raised
certain gender and feminine issues, which will be discussed by the researcher in this subsequent
essay.

Every living being either human or animal needs food for survival. It is very essential for
all to have proper diet, as it helps in growth of an individual. Thus, food can be defined as any
substance, may be plant origin or animal origin that is consumed by all to satisfy the nutritional
needs of the body. There are many types of food, which are a good source of different essential
nutrients such as fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, proteins, minerals, etc. It is consumed by all to
gain energy so that they can grow and maintain the life. Further, it also helps in repairing the
wounds of the body. Energy and nutrition contents of the food depend on the kind of food one
consumes, thus, efficiency of the body depends on the type of food consumed by a living being.
This present research study will focus on the importance of food in one’s life. It will assess why
it is must for a living being to intake different kind of food items. Moreover, it will also highlight
how mal-nutritious diet can affect the health and will draw light on the consequences of poor

Gay marriage is the most controversial topic of debate since its inception. Although, in recent times, many of the states have decided to accept and give reorganization to same sex marriage, yet today also many societies and religions are against this act. Many people consider
it to be a sin. Same sex marriage is not limited to just gay marriage; rather it ranges from unsanctioned, informal and fleeting relationship to highly ritualized bonds that have included marriage. Gay sex marriage or homosexual marriage is defined as sexual attraction of people towards one’s ownsex. Sexual attraction of man for man is termed as gay while sexual attraction of woman for woman is termed as lesbian. This discussion will try to understand the philosophy of Aristotle regarding happiness and will relate it to the position of gay marriage into the contemporary world.
Ever since I have started taking different self-analysis tools, I am able to learn divergent
facts about myself. It is an exceptionally excellent opportunity to look back to my past
experiences of life and assess the events that have massively shaped up my life and has helped
me to differentiate myself from my other classmates. I have undergone with several illuminate
that has aided me to develop myself and acquire an increased knowledge with multiple
intelligence. Working with numerous information technology corporations have enhanced my
knowledge level and has aided in development of my own skills.
The self reflection essay here gives attention on assessing the primary strengths and
weaknesses that I would like to overcome. In context to this the contribution of MBA executive
programs in powering the strengths and at the same time it helps in to reduce weaknesses of
mine and also to develop increased skills as compared to others. The main strength that I possess
is in the area of managing contingency situations that arise in personal or professional life. This
ability I have derived is mainly from variety of industries, for instance working in a global
position where challenges related to communication barriers and many more used to arise. Those
conditions supported me to develop an attitude that information should be properly
communicated to each other and manage several challenges.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. In present scenario computers have become one of the key parts of human life.
Computers are playing a key role in every individual’s life starting from kids to business
professionals. The new generation is very much familiar with computers and internet
(Mahmoodand Hafeez, 2013). There is no doubt that computer are giving a comprehensive edge
to human life and taking the life standard to a new extent. At present computers are being used in
every filed such as communication, education, transport, medical, science, etc. and plying vital
role in their development. Computers have made human’s life so easy and comfortable like never
before. Starting form communication to learning and shopping everything is so instant and easy.
But the impacts of technological developments are not only positive. There is a dark side too
which cannot be neglected while evaluating role of computers in human life.
The use of computers for education is significantly increased in last few years. Due to the
introduction of different new techniques online learning has become easier and interesting. The
development of new technologies and software tools are providing practical learning experience,
which is helping in manufacturing a real true learning society based on technology. It is an
effective way of introducing wealthy training and merged learning techniques so that well-organized
and effective learning practises can be implemented in the surroundings. There is no
doubt that computer based learning has become effective like never before but then also it is still
not so effective in the way it is being promoted. There are still many drawbacks in this technique
that are decreasing its effectiveness. This present essay is going to assess the effectiveness of e-learning.
This essay will assess the advantages and limitations of e-learning and will compare the
identified facts with promotions. Promoters are presenting e-learning in a way like it doesn’t
have any limitation but this study will examine the drawbacks of e-learning. This essay will
evaluate that “E-Learning is over-hyped and low on content”.
There is no doubt that computers are making several positive changes in human life but at
the same time some negative impacts are also there. A variety of negative effects can be resulted
on a person due to computer addiction (Ettinger, Holton and Blass, 2006). An addicted user
spends more and more time on the computer and thus he withdraws from friends and family. In
order to get more computer time individual skips meetings with friends and avoids family

These days e-learning has become a trend and youngsters are quite interested in it but the
effectiveness of e-learning is doubtful. The very first issue is consistency of learning. There are
several other things which attract user while learning from internet. The true learning is hindered
by potential disturbances (Govindasamy, 2002). It is not possible for everyone to use e-learning
as it requires well-matched gadgets and interment connection. There are several other drawbacks
of internet based learning which are covered behind the comprehensive promotional strategies.

4. found that higher satisfaction is expressed by students from the computer mediated learning.
Computer based learning is largely using many components that are familiar from traditional
learning (Mishra, 2002). These components are accumulating knowledge, group discussions,
presentation of ideas, arguments, etc.
There are several learning theories that provide a solid base for good educational
practises. E-learning includes a set of teaching styles rather than being focused on a single one.
With changing educational technology different potential ways of technology are being
implemented to make the learning process easier and effective. The first approach of learning is
social-constructivist that is well afforded by the use of blogs, discussion forums, on-line
collaborative activities and wiki (Venkatesh and Davis, 2000). This approach is dedicated
towards wider groups including students themselves as it opens educational content creation for
them. This approach is used by One Laptop per Child Foundation in their project. Another
approach is Laurillard’s Conversational Model which is relevant of e-learning particularly. The
cognitive perspective theory focuses on the process which is involved in working of brain and
leaning. E-learning also considers emotional aspects like engagement, fun and motivation by the
use of emotional perspective (Khan, 2005).
Another aspect of e-learning is regarding behavioural perspective which focuses on the
behavioural outcomes and skills of the learning process. It includes role playing and application
to the on-the-job settings. On the other hand environmental and social aspects are focused by
Contextual perspective to stimulate learning. The effectiveness of learning is enhanced by the
interaction between student and teacher and student and student. A five stage model is developed
by Salmon about E-moderating and E-learning (Bennet and Bennet, 2008).

There are several objectives of e-learning. The key aims of e-learning are to provide
flexible learning chances for students, to change the learning style and fulfill the need of the
millionaire students, to develop the skills of self-managed learning in students, to develop
technological skills in students as per the needs of current technological world, to break the
physical boundaries for education, to provide low cost training modules to the higher education,
to enable students to plan a successful future of electronic learning training and to improve the
quality of the learning (Anthony and Jill, 2002). E-learning is dedicated towards changing the
traditional learning pattern and introduces a new pattern based on technologies.
It is must for the developers to consider the technical limitations for example network
bandwidth and hardware. It is suggested by the e-learning theory that graphical representation of
course material along with audio attachments but on the other hand these technological
limitations are major barriers. Pages with too many graphics and audio attachments take a long
time to open with slow bandwidths (Baylor and Ritchie, 2002). In some courses students need to
use large monitors and projectors also for make the clear and effective understanding of the

6. concepts. In online distance learning environment the course activities can be impeded by the
technical infrastructure deficiencies on the student side. Technology and the knowledge at the
other end are major factors that can make serious impact on the effectiveness of learning. So
basically in presence of these limitations the application of e-learning theory is doubtful (Adams,
Nelson and Todd, 1992). All these limitations are neglected by promoters while promoting e-learning
that can be misguide the users.
The above dissuasion gives a clear indication that e-learning is over-hyped and in order to
hype e-learning properly it is must for developers to remove these hinders of E-learning. Before
starting the online learning course all the technological aspects should be identified by the
learner and he should also manage all the required equipments.

7. By using different types of activities from several learning styles E-learning ensures the
effectiveness learning but in presence of some potential barriers it is not so effective. An
individual can develop his career with the help of advanced learning by increasing the
knowledge in operating the computer and the internet (Khan, 2005). E-learning is not only about
learning the course material but initially it includes the learning of basic technological skills
which are vital for students in current scenario. It is a significant adverting of e-learning is that
initially it focuses on developing the most important technological skills and internet knowledge
in students. Another advantage of e-learning is time saving. If all the required skills and
equipments are there then an individual can gain expert knowledge from home thought the help
of e-learning (Bennet and Bennet, 2008). E-learning is an effective way of learning from
monetary point of view. The demand of higher education is increasing day by day and so as the
cost associated with it. By the help of e-learning students can undertake online courses by paying
a very small amount. With the little help searching skills students can get the required course
material on internet easily. It is not essential for the students to travel for modules to a central
shop as the internet can be available for all desktops and no fee is charged for training modules
as well as course material (Mishra, 2002).
