Study: The Future of VR, AR and Self-Driving Cars
We asked LinkedIn members worldwide about their levels of interest in the latest wave of technology: whether they’re using wearables, and whether they intend to buy self-driving cars and VR headsets as they become available. We asked them too about their attitudes to technology and to the growing role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the devices that they use. The answers were fascinating – and in many cases, surprising.
This SlideShare explores the full results of this study, including detailed market-by-market breakdowns of intention levels for each technology – and how attitudes change with age, location and seniority level. If you’re marketing a tech brand – or planning to use VR and wearables to reach a professional audience – then these are insights you won’t want to miss.

KITM: a voice for young people in separating families
Kids in the Middle seeks to give children a voice regarding family separation by organizing groups of young people who have experienced parental separation. These groups will (1) film what children say about how separation should be managed to provide support and guidance to parents and professionals, and (2) build a website where children currently experiencing separation can support each other and address parents directly about managing conflict. The organization aims to reduce the harm of family separation on children through child-centered resources and advocacy.

Making the Future: Lynne Elwell & Nicola Dalgarno
This document discusses raising a child with disabilities and advocating for inclusion. It shares the experiences of two mothers, Nicola and Ethan, who have disabilities but whose parents focus on their abilities rather than limitations. The mothers learned to have hope instead of anger, and to continue dreaming for their children as for others. They have created support networks for families and believe all people should feel valued for their gifts. The goal is total transformation to a culture where the most vulnerable are safe and supported to fulfill their potential.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

- 3. In order to reduce Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS) we need funding to pay for the various medical equipment to hopefully find a cure. It is still not certain what causes babies to die so suddenly, but with the funding and charities we can negatewhatever abnormality goes on in them and find the cure. We also need people to be proactive in the search for a cure. inputs
- 4. Saved lives. A chance to be a parent. Were not just a organization that strives to find a cure but also help you through your grieving process with our grief counselors. outputs
- 5. Many parents don’t know that their new born is in danger. October is SIDS, Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Month, and First Candle is joining forces with individuals, local and national member organizations, as well as corporate and retail partners to increase awareness about these tragic causes of infant death. First Candle teaches parents about the dangers of stillbirth. Every community needs to know what they should do to prevent this from happening to them. Community Need and problem

- 7. The Just Thinking Foundation just wants young people to live healthy, responsible lives and it would also help if they knew what SIDS is. Its no surprise that young teens are becoming parents, and who will tell them about the risks of SIDS if their parents don’t know. That’s why JTF and First Candle can help young teens to never have to experience their newborn dying. Just Think Foundation
