This document discusses the past, present, and future of mobile services from 1997 to 2012. It traces the evolution of mobile voice, SMS, and data services over successive generations of wireless networks from 2G to 3G and outlines emerging technologies like Wi-Fi and WiMax. The document notes that while network speeds continue increasing, advertised speeds often do not match real-world performance. It argues that services and content will be provided over networks by third parties rather than networks themselves. Finally, it raises questions around connection speeds, experience control, ideal device formats, and business models.

For a photography assignment on interpreting the brief "TIME", the student chose to take photos around sunrise at 8am. They looked for foreground objects to create strong silhouettes against the colors of the sunrise. Their best photo used the rule of thirds to position a pylon and the horizon, balanced the dark pylon with the bright sun, and used a fast shutter speed and medium aperture to properly expose the photo and capture the sun rising above the horizon with rays and the pylon silhouetted.
The document outlines an action plan for Northside ISD to improve technology integration through various professional development activities for teachers. It includes blogs, wikis, webinars, and online courses to train teachers on tools like digital citizenship. It also establishes an evaluation plan to assess progress using measures such as STaR charts, rubrics, and surveys. The goal is to enhance teaching and learning through increased technology use, online learning opportunities, and leadership support from administrators.
