This Powerpoint was produced by Janna Quitney Anderson, associate professor of communications and director of the Imagining the Internet Center at Elon University.
This presentation will explore one aspect of the Digital Divide, discussed in recent literature with regards to gender differences in how information and communication technologies are utilised and accessed by both sexes. It has been found that women are underrepresented in information and communication technology (ICT) higher education courses as well as the Information Technology (IT) industry in Australia. This has the resultant effect of creating a skills shortage and gender inequality in an ever expanding knowledge & computer based society. Policies regarding the Australian economy are shifting their focus to creating green ICT related jobs which will require more technical computer skills. Therefore it is imperative that the IT sector considers leveraging all kinds of diversity, especially gender diversity, to not only increase their productivity but to facilitate innovation of ICT’s and market them to an equally diverse society. To exclude women whether intentionally or other from this important industry is to the detriment of not only that industry but all of society
Computer ethics is a part of practical philosophy which concerns with how computing professionals should make decisions regarding professional and social conduct.
This talk explores commonly held assumptions about how teens and young adults use technology. Do teens really send that many text messages a day? Is Twitter the next big thing among young adults? Are landlines obsolete? More: http://pewinternet.org/Presentations/2011/Apr/From-Texting-to-Twitter.aspx
In this modern world, life without internet is not possible. So is it really that important that we cannot survive without a moment with it? And what are its effect?

“Okay, this is just too weird”: Identifying outreach opportunities in FacebookElizabeth Edwards
The tremendous popularity of social networking sites like Facebook presents libraries with unique opportunities for reaching students. What many organizations fail to realize, however, is that the presence of professors, librarians, or parents in this social space is often perceived as intrusive, unwelcome, or just plain "weird". Researchers at a small university library decided to take a step back and ask a critical question: what do our students really want? That is, how do our students really use Facebook, and what part can the library play in this social environment? The library literature provides some insights; many of these recommendations, however, are from the perspective of librarians and do not reflect students' expectations, experiences, or preferences. Researchers conducted a mixed methods study of students' use of Facebook, focusing on the intersection of students' academic and social lives in this platform. Results indicated that students are uncertain about the library and librarians using Facebook, but are willing to consider accessing the library through this platform in the right circumstances. By listening to students' concerns and identifying standards for interaction, the researchers made recommendations for restructuring the library's Facebook initiatives. This panel will offer an overview of this study and its implications for library outreach efforts in Facebook. This panel will explore the conflict between the literature's best practices and students' expectations for library behavior in Facebook. A discussion of the library's experiences in implementing and refining its Facebook campaign will facilitate a broader consideration of the opportunities social networking sites present for libraries.

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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

12. My three year old daughter now has her own iPhone, though without service so it is effectively an iPod touch. And how did I create a monster, you might ask? Easy. Her first words upon waking from sleep are "Where's my iPhone?" Her reaction to her parents call to come to the dinner table, head upstairs for a bath or get ready for bed is to clutch her iPhone and cry. Even though I loaded her iPhone with some of her favorite apps from her mom's phone (by re-downloading to our black Macbook, as I couldn't get iTunes Home Sharing to work with my wife's Macbook Air), she only really uses it to watch a small handful of videos that I ripped or downloaded. And she uses it constantly: sitting in a chair, laying on the floor, walking from room-to-room... head down, focused on the iPhone screen, it can be a challenge to get her to disengage with the device and engage with us.
16. Internet Connection Speeds From 2008 to 2009, on average, the world’s Internet got 13% faster; Americas got 2.4% slower. Akamai’s 2009 State of the Internet report
19. Filtering, not remembering, is the most important skill for those who use the Internet. KNOWLEDGE IS OUT, FOCUS IS IN, AND PEOPLE ARE EVERYWHERE DAVID DALRYMPLE Researcher, MIT Mind Machine Project http://edge.org/q2010/q10_16.html#dalrymple
20. three primary, broad consequences of the Internet: information is no longer stored and retrieved by people, but is managed externally, by the Internet, it is increasingly challenging and important for people to maintain their focus in a world where distractions are available anywhere, and the Internet enables us to talk to and hear from people around the world effortlessly. http://edge.org/q2010/q10_16.html#dalrymple
30. a qualitative research project established in 2002 that identifies and describes emerging technologies likely to have a large impact on teaching, learning, or creative inquiry on college and university campuses within the next five years
31. six emerging technologies or practices are described that are likely to enter mainstream use on campuses within three adoption horizons spread over the next one to five years
32. Key Trends The abundance of resources and relationships made easily accessible via the Internet is increasingly challenging us to revisit our roles as educators in sense-making, coaching, and credentialing.
33. Key Trends People expect to be able to work, learn, and study whenever and wherever they want to.
34. Key Trends The technologies we use are increasingly cloud-based, and our notions of IT support are decentralized.
35. Key Trends The work of students is increasingly seen as collaborative by nature, and there is more cross-campus collaboration between departments.
36. Critical Challenges The role of the academy — and the way we prepare students for their future lives — is changing.
37. Critical Challenges New scholarly forms of authoring, publishing, and researching continue to emerge but appropriate metrics for evaluating them increasingly and far too often lag behind
38. Critical Challenges Digital media literacy continues its rise in importance as a key skill in every discipline and profession.
39. Critical Challenges Institutions increasingly focus more narrowly on key goals, as a result of shrinking budgets in the present economic climate.
43. Digital Textbooks 70%of textbook sales that take place at college bookstores and their websites. 3%of textbooks sold as e-texts at college bookstores.
Let’s consider a one year snapshot of the college website
Using Google analytics – we see over 4.6 million visitors from the US
4.2 million from all over NJ – with the top 10 cities listed. We have 400,000 visitors from outside NJ – do they take classes? Are we capturing that potential audience?
The slide shows new versus returning visitors to the website. What are we doing to make sure these 21% new visitors come back – i.e. become return visitors?
The dominant language of visitors to the website is English …
… but we have visitors whose language is Spanish, Russian, German, Chinese, French, etc. Are we doing anything to capture these demographics?
Think of visitor loyalty as a measure of retention. How often do visitors come back? 14% come back over 201 times, but what about those that visit only one time, two times, or three times. Can we get them to visit again?
Most of our labs have Windows and IE installed, so this isn’t surprising, but Firefox/Windows is significant, and Safari/Mac + Firefox/Mac are 3rd and 4th. Also look at 7 and 8 (iPhone and iPod) – mobile devices are 7th and 8th!
Consider that result in the context of this predication from Gartner. Is the website optimized for mobile devices? Are student services available for mobile devices?
Consider that result in the context of this predication from Gartner. Is the website optimized for mobile devices? Are student services available for mobile devices?
The technology already exists to present your classroom content from a mobile device!
Lots of variety in ISPs
High speed Internet fairly wide-spread, but still a sliver of slow dialup
Slow internet is a national problem
How are visitors getting to the website? Mostly direct traffic – computers at the college, which open to the BCC website, but significant numbers from search. Consider the top search terms – angel, bookstore, testing center, calendar, communiversity, etc
Landing page – where do visitors end up? Webmail, distance ed, comp sci, admin, directory, online courses, etc
MIT researcher David Dalrymple observes that the shift to greater dependence/use of the Internet requires a shift from “remembering” as a skill to “filtering”
Dalrymple identifies three consequences of the InternetA shift from information that is stored and retrieved to information that is managed externally on and by the InternetMore distractions and therefore greater difficulty maintaining focusAbility to communicate globally
Some real eye-opening data about gaming makes me think about gaming in education - especially console gaming. Consider for example the following data:- 65% of US households play video games
- the average gamer is 32 years old
the age distribution:25% under 1849% between 18-4926% over 5
gamers spend an average of 18 hours per week playing video games
