1) It promotes equality by providing disadvantaged students access to the same educational resources as their peers through technology.
2) Technology prepares students for their professional futures, as technology will be integral to every career.
3) Mobile technology allows learning to extend beyond the classroom by enabling students to learn anywhere.
4) Technology provides instant feedback on student progress, which increases motivation to improve.
This document discusses mobile initiatives at Georgetown College. It provides an overview of why mobile matters in libraries today given growing smartphone ownership. It outlines Georgetown College's mobile projects including a mobile catalog, QR codes, and an app. Current projects under development include a mobile website and e-reserving system. Frameworks discussed include jQuery Mobile and PhoneGap. Code samples from other institutions are also referenced.
A survey of 30 students at Varsity College in Cape Town found that most students had access to a computer but only 59% had internet access at home. Students without computer or internet access most often used the university library as an alternative. While most students felt comfortable using the internet independently, only a third rated their internet skills as excellent. Those without full computer and internet access were less likely to rate their skills as excellent. Regular access to technology appears to increase students' confidence in their digital skills.

This document provides an overview of eGovernance in a university setting. It discusses how eGovernance uses information and communication technology to improve governance transparency and efficiency. It then describes the typical structure of a university, including its top management, administration, library, faculties, and distribution of documents. Finally, it proposes implementing an eGovernance system in the university by developing software, databases, and digitizing records to link officers, departments, and institutions through information and communication technologies.
This workshop will give participants the opportunity to explore the
relationship between inquiry-based learning and information literacy
(IL). Participants will reflect on their own IL competencies using the
SCONUL ‘Seven Pillars’ model of IL. We will then discuss how IL as
defined by the Seven Pillars can support inquiry in student learning in
HE. Several CILASS-funded curriculum development projects have
featured a strong focus on the development of IL competencies through
inquiry. A group exercise will invite participants to design inquiry-based
activities to build IL in response to the same scenarios that have
prompted the development of CILASS projects.
The school took the plunge into a BYOT (Bring Your Own Technology) program to meet increasing technology demands from faculty and students. A survey found that students wanted greater access to technology during the school day as the 2:1 student to computer ratio was not enough. Faculty also wanted students to have access to specialized software, increased wireless access on personal devices, and file access from home. The IT department took a user-driven approach to implement the BYOT program with clear expectations and policies to address these needs and make technology a fully integrated part of the learning environment.
Between 2010/11 and 2014/15, education spending in the UK is estimated to decrease by 13.4% in real terms according to the Institute for Fiscal Studies. Meanwhile, the number of personal computing devices worldwide is projected to increase by 100% from 700 million to 1.4 billion between 2010 and 2014 according to IDC. One student remarked that having a school-provided laptop, while not high quality, made a significant difference for homework even if teachers were hesitant to let him use it during lessons, as it gave him access to needed school materials.
The document discusses the E-Rate program, which provides funds to help schools and libraries obtain affordable internet access and telecommunications devices. To qualify for E-Rate discounts, a school or library must prepare a technology plan that addresses clear goals, professional development, an assessment of needs, a budget, and an evaluation process. The document provides an example of Houston Independent School District's technology plan, outlining goals and initiatives like infrastructure, data management, and equitable distribution of technology. It also gives examples of how technology is used at Patterson Elementary to enhance instruction for students, such as a student creating a PowerPoint presentation on dinosaurs as an accommodation and using Smart Boards in teaching.
15 Years After an OCR Suit: NC State’s Accessibility RefreshPatrick Loftus
In 1999, NC State University entered into a voluntary resolution resulting from three complaints filed from the Department of Education Office for Civil Rights (OCR). The resolution agreement resulted in the creation of a campus-wide IT accessibility policy, an accessibility coordinator position, and other essential accessibility resources that were relevant at the time.
But what does accessibility at NC State University look like 15 (actually 17) years later? After so much time, it would be easy to fall behind or fail to maintain the established accessibility standards.
In this session, Grey Reavis (University IT Accessibility Coordinator) and Rebecca Sitton (Assistive Technology Coordinator) will look at how they are creating a proactive strategy to address the current risk areas on campus.
Topics will include:
The history of accessibility at NC State
The OCR complaints and the major initiatives that came out of them
NC State's risk assessment process and current initiatives
How awareness of OCR complaints influences campus climate and changes
NC State's campus-wide accessibility policy
Faculty training
Working to make accessibility a proactive priority on campus

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
