...Electronic Computers Computers are used to send e-mails across to other people via the internet and most commonly mobile phones. Another way in which computers are used at Oldbury Academy is via the gateway. This is almost comparable to a portal between teachers and students. It allows for pupils to access work in the case of a teacher being absent, teachers may also display messages about extra curriculums on the gateway and any other relevant information. Oldbury Academy also uses a system called SIMS (School Information Management System) which allows teachers to track the whereabouts of any given student via giving them a present mark and electronically noting down their timetabled lessons. Here is an example of Student Announcements which are placed onto the gateway by teachers, to communicate information to students.

E-mail Oldbury Academy uses e-mails to send messages across to staff in regards to information such as assemblies or student’s absences.

It also leads to the trend that more and more students bring their personal electronic devices to class. I observed the use of electronic devices in three different courses, and I also interviewed two instructors with unique teaching styles and asked them their opinions about whether should allow their students use laptops during lectures. The reason I did this report is that I have seen many students bring their laptops to class for different purposes, and also realized that college teachers have different policies on the use of personal electronic devices. I observed student’s behavior in several classes, 70% of the students brought electronic devices to class, which only 20% of them actually used them for class related work. I also interviewed two instructors about their attitude of using laptops during class. One of them believed that it was helpful and convenient for students take notes on the computer and follow up with course materials. The other teacher argued that it was distractive to others if some students use their laptops to do non-class activities and was also disrespectful to the instructor. The conclusion of this report...

Computers are convenient, combined with the internet, they can be a great asset to us and we have achieved a lot from them. Although computers are nice to have, we have to think about the complications that they can bring upon us. Computers are liable to crash, shut down, or become subject to the intricacy of hackers. When doing things manually, you can never fail or have to depend on the computer. On the other hand, one has to take into consideration human errors and the need for excellent record keeping. It may take a lot of hard work to get things done manually, but it will always be a great back up to rely on. The only option to fully understand the benefits from either, would have to be discussing the pros and cons for both. There are pros and cons to electronic and manual scheduling. When scheduling electronically, for most, it is easy to use, convenient, and reduces the need for paperwork. Electronic scheduling is in popular demand.

...Additional Mental Health ISOLATION The use of messaging and social media messages have become a common occurrence in today’s society. Interaction on a human level has become less frequent in a person’s day-to-day living arrangements. Because of social media websites, interaction with others has become effortless, and people have isolated themselves behind online identities. Direct communication has been eliminated and much of society has been reduced to using abbreviations that express their emotions. Examples of important aspects of communication that are falling by the wayside today include: Basic verbal communication Tone of voice Facial expression Body language Social media is removing these very human qualities of communication by eliminating the need to get out and socialize with others in person. Sleep Disturbances Evidence also suggests that social media overuse can contribute to sleep disturbances. Studies of Chinese and American children, published in the "Journal of Sleep" and the "Journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics," found that computer use among adolescents was associated with later bed times, later waking times, less restful sleep and an overall decrease in sleep. The use of computers before bedtime has also raised concerns among sleep experts, including Phyllis Zee, a neuroscience professor at Northwestern University, that the light from screens is affecting circadian rhythms and possibly...

The age of technology began with the television and the radio, but as time progressed it gave way to other items such as computers, satellites, and smartphones with various other devices developed to bring a different sense of power to the common person. Those such as reporters were no longer in complete control of how society received the daily news or even be alerted of breaking news. We are now provided with other means to stay on top of the world around us such as social networking sites, news websites, and various types of forums. Many years ago, the newspaper was solely delivered to your doorstep or you could purchase it in various places. Now you can access the internet from just about anywhere in the world and see the news via the news stations website. You can even have the news delivered directly to your email account or phone daily and in most cases get it as its happening.
