COLLEGE students tell me they know how to look someone in the eye and type on their phones at the same time, their split attention undetected. They say it’s a skill they mastered in middle school when they wanted to text in class without getting caught. Now they use it when they want to be both with their friends and, as some put it, “elsewhere.”
These days, we feel less of a need to hide the fact that we are dividing our attention. In a 2015 study by the Pew Research Center, 89 percent of cellphone owners said they had used their phones during the last social gathering they attended. But they weren’t happy about it; 82 percent of adults felt that the way they used their phones in social settings hurt the conversation.
I’ve been studying the psychology of online connectivity for more than 30 years. For the past five, I’ve had a special focus: What has happened to face-to-face conversation in a world where so many people say they would rather text than talk? I’ve looked at families, friendships and romance. I’ve studied schools, universities and workplaces. When college students explain to me how dividing their attention plays out in the dining hall, some refer to a “rule of three.” In a conversation among five or six people at dinner, you have to check that three people are paying attention — heads up — before you give yourself permission to look down at your phone. So conversation proceeds, but with different people having their heads up at different times. The effect is what you would expect: Conversation is kept relatively light, on topics where people feel they can drop in and out.
Young people spoke to me enthusiastically about the good things that flow from a life lived by the rule of three, which you can follow not only during meals but all the time. First of all, there is the magic of the always available elsewhere. You can put your attention wherever you want it to be. You can always be heard. You never have to be bored. When you sense that a lull in the conversation is coming, you can shift your attention from the people in the room to the world you can find on your phone. But the students also described a sense of loss.
One 15-year-old I interviewed at a summer camp talked about her reaction when she went out to dinner with her father and he took out his phone to add “facts” to their conversation. “Daddy,” she said, “stop Googling. I want to talk to you.” A 15-year-old boy told me that someday he wanted to raise a family, not the way his parents are raising him (with phones out during meals and in the park and during his school sports events) but the way his parents think they are raising him — with no phones at meals and plentiful family conversation. One college junior tried to capture what is wrong about life in his generation. “Our texts are fine,” he said. “It’s what texting does to our conversati.

I have a lot of friends and they are all very helping. They helped me out in every difficult situation but now I can’t ask my friends for favors because they have already done a lot for me. They still offer me favors but now I’m trying to solve my problems individually and focusing on helping my friends.
Last year, I have to pay my college fees and my friends helped me out by arranging the fees now the situation is I can't ask my friends for favors and I have decided to solve my problems own.
Description 2
I have a sister who is younger than me. I loved him the most and also, she is the only one I am closely attached to my home. But sometimes I can’t discipline my daughter without being angry
because sometimes being furious is the requirement of the situation and I have noticed that children cannot learn to eliminate mistakes unless they are handled with some anger.
Last week, my sister tried to beat the cat. She was playing with a cat but the way she was playing does not look good to me. She was slapping the cat just to make fun then I told him with a serious tone that this is not the right way to play.

I am working as the assistant manager in a company. My boss is very kind to me but sometimes he put his work on my shoulders which I don’t like but I can’t say no to my boss because he has helped me a lot throughout my career.

Week 3
Questions and Answer for each topic.
Topic 1
Men and women communicate on a daily basis but it is not always effective. Remember the 1995 book Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus? The author argues men and women have different needs, goals, values, and communication styles.
Do you agree with this statement or not and why?
Topic 2
Electronic media is changing our lives and technology is to blame. We no longer talk face to face; we text and text and text. What has changed over the last decade that makes us feel like we need to have instant connections? When you send a text to someone and they do not reply, is that offensive?
Topic 3
Proofreading is a critical part of the written communication process yet it is often the most overlooked step. What tips do you have for someone that is new to the business environment when it comes to ensuring they produce quality documents.

Topic 1
#1
I both agree and disagree with the authors argument: Men and women have different needs,goals,values and communication styles. While there are obvious differences between the genders, such as testosterone balances- I feel that this statement looks over the big picture, we are all different as individuals, not necessarily as generalized groups (pink and blue). Before I get into my firm opinion on this topic, I would like to address that while this may not be true to the date, back in the day I believe that this would be more of an accurate statement. Men were born into families to earn the money and women were born and married into families to take care of the home and family- so back then, yes, I would agree that they had different goals, values and communication styles. However, these days there is far more equity in gender roles than the old timers could have ever imagined, now there are stay at home dads and traveling business moms, a new norm. There are plenty of men who share the same charisma as women, and vice versa. I would like to respectfully point out gender changes, as I feel it is appropriate for this topic: a great example of a man or woman whom shared the same goals,values,needs,etc. to the point of conversion. We are all different and with that being said, being comfortable in our own skin, which requires meeting our own needs, has nothing to do with our gender... in my opinion.
#2
I am conflicted about this topic. I do believe that in general, men and women communicate differently and have different communication styles. I do not believe this is black and white though. I tend to think that men and women have way more commonalities in communication styles than they have differences. I find that many women are really into "gossip" and or just being very chatty in general, whereas men tend to be more reserved and quiet. Of course this doesn't pertain to every man and woman. For example, most of the women in my family will talk to each other on the phone almost once a ...
For most of us, talking is like breathing. You don’t think about it; you just do it. But when you start paying attention to how you speak, this leads you to think about why you speak the way you do. You’re forcing yourself to become conscious of something that usually happens unconsciously. Now you’re doing the kind of work you might do with meditation or psychotherapy. You’re turning your attention inward. You’re engaging in self-reflection & self-examination. You’re figuring out who you are.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

AI technologies are revolutionizing various fields, from healthcare to finance, by enabling machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.

16. Intervention No. 1
Problem: Distracted by 24/7 AIM use.
Impact: Work suffered
Intervention: To go offline for a week.
17. Intervention No. 1
About 10 minutes after I agreed to not have AIM for a week,
I freaked out.
I signed on for like a minute... to tell a couple friends what I
was doing. After which they said ‘well what are you doing
here!!! sign off!’.
18. Intervention No. 1
The realization that I was using AIM as this tool of
procrastination made me a lot more aware of my actions.
Since taking that break from AIM, I’ve come back to being
online a lot of the time, but actually, not quite as much as I
was before.
19. Intervention No. 2
Problem: No personal space & lots of responsibilities to others.
Impact: Overwhelmed
Intervention: To be alone & write down distracting thoughts.
20. Intervention No. 2
I do an unnatural amount of emailing, telephoning, putting out fires, etc. for a little
human. I do build up a lot of thoughts of people I need to tell something or an email I
need to send. It never goes away.
I have intermittent thesis freak-out sessions where I can’t work because I overwhelm
myself with thoughts of everything that needs to get done.
21. Intervention No. 2
I realized that I just wanted to get rid of all these thoughts so I could
think… I spent about 30 minutes by myself just “putting” each one of
these burning thoughts that came up into this wooden bottle.”
There’s something about knowing that the thought isn’t going
anywhere but that I don’t have to do anything with it either.”
22. Intervention No. 3
Problem: Is physically on the computer “too much”
Impact: Doesn’t spend time with herself & face-to-face time
Intervention: To turn Skype off for one week (+ phone + laptop)
23. Intervention No. 3
I found it sort of a disappointment actually.
My presence was not really missed from
what I can tell. You know, I expected to
have them try to reach out to me more...
24. Intervention No. 3
I decided to go off IM as well as
turning my phone off during
‘business hours’ and only check
messages at night.”
25. Intervention No. 3
I felt like I was on vacation,
I didn’t feel the expectation of having to be connected
and today I sit here without AIM on or my cell phone on
or Skype on and I feel as if life is quiet again.
26. Intervention No. 3
My relationships are shifting
dynamically because of my choices...
I am forced to talk to people face to
face, to spend time finding someone I
care about to say I love you in person.
