Essay call
The document discusses the challenges of introducing new technologies into education. It notes that while educational systems are implementing information and communication technologies (ICTs) in high schools, there are two main issues that need to be addressed. First, students come from a variety of economic backgrounds and may not have access to technological devices, so technologies need to be introduced progressively. Second, educational buildings often lack suitable service providers to support new technologies. While governments feel pressured to adopt new technologies, decisions are sometimes made without proper planning or support infrastructure. Any introduction of new technologies into education needs to be accompanied by suitable training and technical support to achieve educational goals.
Ed 633 Power Point
Technology in the classroom can have a positive impact on student learning and proficiency in several key ways. It allows students to take a more active role in learning, makes connections between theory and practice, and increases student motivation and engagement. Studies show technology integration is linked to improved standardized test scores across subjects like math, science, English and social studies. It also provides benefits for special education students and at-risk youth by improving achievement and engagement. However, implementing technology comes with accountability and cost considerations for effective implementation.
leadership and learning with ict
The document discusses seven interconnected conditions needed to support teaching and learning with information and communication technology (ICT): 1) an ICT strategic plan, 2) a vision, 3) school culture, 4) a whole school approach, 5) school infrastructure, 6) organizational structure, and 7) teacher education and leaders' professional learning. It emphasizes that integrating ICT requires vision and leadership from school leaders. Specifically, leaders must allocate resources and budgets to ICT, establish sustainable funding models, and understand ICT solutions in order to guide decisions and support innovation. Successful ICT integration also focuses on improving student learning outcomes.
Human trafficking & slavery
This document discusses modern slavery and forced labor. It notes that while slavery was abolished in 1833, human trafficking and forced labor continue today through practices like debt bondage, sexual exploitation, and the removal of body parts. Victims are often threatened with violence and "dumped or killed" when no longer useful. International conventions have aimed to abolish slavery, but many countries still lack laws or political will to enforce them. Reducing demand and vulnerability as well as increasing awareness and assistance to authorities are recommended to help address this ongoing global human rights issue.

Biomass is useful because it doesn't pollute and is better for the environment than other inventions as it produces no pollution and doesn't require daily electricity use.
Ethnocentrism
The document defines ethnocentrism as viewing one's own group as central while believing other groups are inferior. It was coined by William Graham Sumner and involves strongly identifying with one's own culture while rejecting others. Ethnocentrism can lead to stereotyping other groups and issues in the workplace if a single language is enforced. Examples of ethnocentric views in the US include thinking American practices are superior to others in areas like driving, alcohol laws, and language use in schools and businesses.

- 11. “ For everywhere we look, there is work to be done... And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age. All this we can do. All this we will do." Barrack Obama (2008) 21 st Century Students
Editor's Notes
- During his inaugural address, President Barrack Obama stated that, “our schools fail too many.” As our nation struggles through these difficult economic times, an examination of our current expenditures is essential as we look to maximize our increasingly limited revenues. I welcome this opportunity to show you the essential role that technology has in creating successful schools, schools that fail none and meet the “demands of a new age.” It is clear that technology is one investment in our contemporary world that provides large returns in human capital.
