The document discusses concerns raised over time about students' dependence on new technologies for education. Quotes from 1703 to 1985 express worries that students had become too reliant on slates, paper, ink, pens, calculators and would not know how to function without them. The concluding statement acknowledges that while pens, pencils and calculators are still used, computers now further ease lives, and there will always be complaints about new technologies.
Στην πτυχιακή μου εργασία, έφερα σε επαφή ένα σχολείο της Ρόδου και δύο σχολεία της ομογένειας (Νέα Υόρκη και Τορόντο). Οι 3 τάξεις αδελφοποιήθηκαν μέσα από παιδαγωγικές δραστηριότητες που στηρίζονταν τόσο στη σύγχρονη όσο και στην ασύγχρονη επικοινωνία.
The document provides information about a staff training on stroke management at Good Samaritan Hospital, including:
1. The goals of the training are to describe basic stroke facts, types of stroke, how staff can impact outcomes, and the nurse's role in patient management.
2. Timely treatment is critical, as each minute of delay results in loss of brain cells and function. The training aims to optimize teamwork and processes to minimize time to treatment.
3. Strokes are either ischemic or hemorrhagic, and immediate assessment, labs, imaging, and potential thrombolysis are essential to determining treatment and eligibility for t-PA.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise stimulates the production of endorphins in the brain which can help alleviate feelings of stress or sadness.
This document discusses the pharmacology of commonly used drugs for conscious sedation, including barbiturates, benzodiazepines, and other sedatives. It describes how barbiturates like pentobarbital, methohexital, and thiopental act as central nervous system depressants and can cause respiratory depression. It also explains that benzodiazepines like diazepam and midazolam produce sedation, anxiolysis, and amnesia by enhancing the effect of the neurotransmitter GABA at brain receptors, but can also depress respiration especially when combined with other CNS depressants. The document provides details on dosages, routes of administration, onset of action, and side effects
This document summarizes the initial findings of a CEPIS Green ICT Task Force survey examining Green ICT awareness in organizations. The survey received 300 responses so far from ICT managers in different European countries. Preliminary results show variations between countries in implementing energy efficient methods. The task force is led by experts from several CEPIS member societies and aims to promote Green ICT practices across Europe through research and disseminating best practices.

The document discusses concerns raised over time about students' dependence on new technologies for schoolwork. Quotes from 1703 to 1985 criticize students' reliance on increasingly advanced tools like slates, paper, ink, pens, calculators and computers rather than traditional methods like bark, sharpening quills, or making their own ink. The concluding statement acknowledges that while certain tools like pens, pencils and calculators remain in use, computers now further ease lives, and complaints about new technologies will likely continue into the future.
The story is about a group of tiny frogs that hold a race to climb a very tall tower. A crowd gathers to watch and cheer them on but doubt they will succeed because the tower is too high. Most of the frogs begin to tire out and give up climbing partway up. However, one frog continues climbing higher and higher until it reaches the top, while all the others have given up. It is revealed that the winning frog was deaf, so it could not hear the negative comments from the crowd doubting they would make it to the top. The moral of the story is to not listen to other people's negativity and pessimism and to pursue your dreams regardless of what others say.
1) The document discusses the negative effects of arguing, including leaving people feeling defensive, inferior, and resentful even if you "win" the argument.
2) It notes that arguments are often caused by pride, selfishness, and a lack of love rather than the issues being argued about.
3) The document advocates avoiding arguments by building others up with love, understanding different perspectives, and focusing on cooperation rather than being right.
This document provides information about stroke for nurses, including basic stroke facts, types of stroke, the effects of delayed treatment, and roles and responsibilities for managing stroke patients. It aims to describe stroke, improve staff performance in stroke care, and reduce time to treatment through interdepartmental teamwork in order to limit cell and nerve death caused by strokes. The primary goals are to describe stroke basics, types of stroke, how staff impact outcomes, and the nurse's role in patient management.
The document discusses bioterrorism and several biological agents that could potentially be used as weapons, including anthrax, tularemia, plague, smallpox, botulism, and viral hemorrhagic fevers. It provides details on the history, epidemiology, clinical manifestations, treatment, and documented outbreaks of each agent. The document emphasizes that public health and medical professionals must be prepared to recognize and respond to biological attacks. High-risk targets are also identified, and external links are provided for additional information.
The Pencil Maker tells the pencil that it needs to remember five things to become the best pencil it can be: 1) It must allow itself to be held and used by others. 2) It will experience sharpening which is necessary for improvement. 3) It can correct mistakes. 4) The most important part is what's inside. 5) It must continue writing no matter how difficult the situation. The pencil understands and promises to fulfill its purpose. The message is that people, like pencils, were created by God for a purpose and should allow themselves to be used by others and continue serving despite hardships.
