This document discusses how technology has become integrated into our daily lives. It provides examples of how computers and mobile phones can be used for entertainment, communication, education, and more. The document also explores how technology is used in families and discusses debates around its benefits and disadvantages. Students are prompted to consider technologies they use, imagine new inventions, and analyze older technologies that have been replaced by modern devices. The goal is to have students think critically about technology's role in both simplifying and complicating modern life.

TV INDUSTRY REPORT gives the overall picture of advertising on TV during the period Jan’14 to Dec’15. It covers top advertisers, categories and brands and their % share in total advertising in terms of minutes along with comparison with 2014. The report also focuses on share of TV channels, share of each genre and ad-spend split over the time slots.

IMPORTANT: All the ranking are on the basis of minutes, which does not reflect the ranking on the basis of ad spend.
The always-connected world is becoming a reality faster than most of us would have expected. Now people are accessing information through a variety of devices based on where they are and what they’re doing. No longer is being connected limited to the constraints of the traditional desktop environment. Devices, networks and the Web are evolving at a fast rate. Our expectations about what we want, how we want it and when we want it are more complex. Designing for this multi-device environment to provide experiences that meet the expectations of the audiences is challenging.
This presentation from UX Australia 2011 covered how to approach designing experiences that span multiple platforms and devices to show how to break down the complexity inherent when developing across multi-device, multi-role and multi-context scenarios. It also covered the need to be pragmatic when defining solutions that address all of these issues in the increasingly fragmented environment we are part of, including integrating features and functionality of third-party platforms that you have no control over.
It provides examples from the wild to illustrate how what appears to be a simple and straightforward set of features and functionality on the surface, becomes inherently more complex when you take into account different access devices, different user roles and different development environments.
Resources for Lawyers to Help Create SpaceJack Pringle
The legal profession faces a bewildering array of challenges. And when new computer technologies, evolving client expectations, and competition force changes on the profession and the way we do business, some of the tools that have served us well in the past may fall a little short. As a result, managing change when the “new” becomes “the normal” can be overwhelming. Unfortunately, too many attorneys react to the distresses of the law practice by isolating themselves and turning to unhealthy and dangerous actions and habits.
These materials are a compendium of short pieces and resources that have helped me create some practical strategies for surviving- and hopefully thriving- in an uncertain world.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Technology and You
Before we start………….
We cannot imagine a world without cell phones, computers, the internet and the many things that
technology has made a part of our daily life. We live in a world where every day new information becomes
available to us. We can see how technology affects almost every part of our lives. There is an information
and technology explosion in our world and every one of us enjoys the benefits of it. life. This SLU, explores
how technology plays such a major part in our lives.
Activity – 1: Bring the world into your room
We can use a computer or cell phone with the internet for many purposes. When we use it to watch
movies, we feel as if we are in a theatre. When we play games, we enjoy ourselves as if we are on the
playground. We can now read stories on the net when earlier we could only find them in books and
magazines made of paper.
Can you come up with at least ten more uses of computers? Write them in the space below.
Here are some clues.

Activity – 3: Are Mobile Phones a Benefit or a Nuisance ?
A mobile phone has the power to kill you or save your life. Talk on the phone while you are driving, and
you are very likely to have an accident. But on the other hand, when there is an emergency, the mobile
phone can be helpful. Think about this and fill the table below. Don’t forget to compare your list with that
of your friend.

Activity – 3: My Own Technology
We love inventions that solve real world problems. Remya Jose, a 14 year school girl from Kerala, has
created a simple pedal-powered washing machine which came about due to her dislike of washing clothes
by hand. Her invention is not only a washing machine, but can double up as an exercise machine as well.
This washing machine is actually quite simple - a modified bicycle frame attached to a square metal box that
contains an iron-mesh drum inside. The pedal is basically like an exercise cycling machine with an attached
metal box extension.
Think about a problem you have. Imagine a new machine that can help you solve it. Describe it in few
sentences. It may be crazy, but don’t worry about it. All ideas are crazy before they turn into products.
Read out your imaginary technology to your friends.
Here are some ideas to think about.
1. When somebody opens the gate to your house, a machine automatically pumps water into the
overhead tank !
2. Hold the mobile phone in your hand and move it to the left and right a few times. Does the phone
battery get charged ?
Can you think of any more ideas ?
7. STUDENT LEARNING UNIT 15

Imagine the smallest details of your product and explain them in your description. Give your invention an
attractive name!
Activity – 4: Technology around Us
Have you noticed people using small machines which they themselves have invented to solve their
problems ?
For example: machines to minimize water usage, to grind masala, etc.
If you find one ask how it is used. You can do the following to get some information about the product.
• Prepare a questionnaire
• Interview the person
• Take a few photographs of the machine and the inventor
• Use the data you collect to write a small article
• Read it out to your friends and ask for their suggestions to improve it.
• Rewrite it and add the photographs to your article
• Present it in the class. Allow the other students to read it in their free time.
Activity – 5: Technology that has been Disappeared
Can you identify these objects? These are a typewriter, a camera, a gramophone and a telegraph machine,
respectively. But they have now been disappeared from our lives. Instead small, compact gadgets have
taken their place. Can you find out which gadgets have replaced these old machines ?

are very complex and they are harmful both to the environment and to people.' How far is this
statement true ?
• 'Change is a must and will continue.' Is another statement we usually hear. What are your views ?
