...To Use Electronics during School Electronic devices, including cell phones, are very helpful resources during school hours. Emergencies always happen and in case of emergency cell phones come in handy. Students are required to pay attention in class, yet no one said anything about having to pay attention during lunch or passing periods. There should be no worries about students being distracted during lunch, or passing periods because class hasn`t started. Electronic devices should be allowed during school hours. Parents always want to keep in touch with their children to see how they are doing during school. When there is an accident, there’s really no way to communicate with others because of this rule. Because of this rule, you don’t get any help because of the fact that you cannot use cell phones. Plus you don’t want to get in trouble, but you need to help the person who is hurt. Phones can be silenced during class or study periods and active only in appropriate places. Like if you were after school and you have to silence it for athletic sports, stay after to get help from a teacher, in a library and etc. Because of a small mistake, students get punished. A teacher can assume that you’re texting because your phone went off, but they don’t have actual proof. Students need a stand for this because accidents always happen. The other thing is that other electronic devices like cameras and IPods don’t make any disruptions unless they’re being used during school. Cameras are...

...Electronics Waste Electronic waste, also called e-waste, is noted as discarded electronics such as TV sets, batteries, cell mobile phones, and computers. E-waste has turned into real problem, where 8 percent of the global municipal is e-waste. The increasing rate of e-waste can be linked to the increase in the developments in technology and as older technology becomes outdated they are discarded, mass consumer styles, and products approaching their end all add to the rapidly increasing rate. Many customers, reseller and manufacturers have been slow to identify the problem that e-waste presents. The attention is to focus on the use of restore and recycling techniques, thereby avoiding e-waste from coming into the waste flow and increasing the lifespan of the various devices. Telling customers the correct methods to get rid of their undesirable electronics is seen as a key method in the successful management of e-waste. E-waste can cause a problems not only for consumers but also businesses. The actual volume of e-waste will increase significantly, with new technological innovation regularly changing. Companies can find themselves provided with huge stockpiles of out-of-date and undesirable electronic waste. The safe, moral, and cost-effective disposal of e-waste can be challenging if not applied or supervised effectively. The e-waste problems requires an international solution, and although many countries are giving answers to the problems by presenting regulation for e-waste...

...American Children to Dependent on Electronics Children today know more about electronics then the average adult. They begin to use electronics before they can even speak well. Children begin to use electronics at home before they attend school; however, when starting Kindergarten they are taught how to use electronics. This raises the question have American children become to dependent on the luxuries of electronics. Most children are born into homes that have at least one parent owning electronics. As small children the light of a phone intrigues a child to try and figure out what this amazing device does. Then, after mastering the cell phone lock they begin to realize that they want games that are like daddies cell phone. After this realization they begin to ask for electronics. Sales of electronic games are projected at $4 billion this year, stated by the New York Times. In today’s world so many children are spending hours on a computer or cell phone that “children under the age of five had the highest injury rate of all age groups” stated by The Canadian Press.

...Electronic Cigarettes I. INTRODUCTION (4 min). NOTE: Show slide 1. A. Opening Statement: How many people here smoke or use tobacco products? You really can’t take out a cigarette and smoke anywhere anymore. You can’t smoke in the bar anymore, and that was once a sacred ritual. You can’t go to your favorite coffee shop and enjoy a couple of cigarettes with your favorite brew. And when you are working and you want to have a smoke, you will have to go outside and smoke a cigarette, no matter the weather. It really has become a pain to be a smoker. Also, let’s not forget that it has become so expensive to smoke as well, with the price of cigarettes increasing every year it seems. Did you know there is a healthier alterative to smoking? And the fact of the matter is that this is not a new thing at all. It’s been around for a lot longer than you would think. Electronic Cigarettes are not only affordable but a lot healthier for you.

...Electronic Cigarettes; The New, Legal Way to Pollute the Body Over the last 10 years, a new craze has taken effect over the world. Electronic cigarettes or E-Cigs, have become popular among all generations. The question for the reader is simple. Is this alternative form of nicotine dependence healthy, or is society setting itself up for a big health shock in the upcoming years? “Many anti-smoking advocates have argued that electronic cigarettes don’t help smokers quit but merely prolong their addiction to nicotine. In other words, the hundreds of thousands of electronic cigarette users in the United States are smokers who, if only they stopped using e-cigarettes, would successfully quit smoking” (Siegel, 2013). Although the issue of E-Cigs is not a burning issue at this moment, imagine what happens in five to ten years if users of E-Cigs are told that the activity they have been participating in is causing many of the ailments that could arise due to the use of E-Cigs in their infancy. The makers of E-Cigs will be sued, the Federal Government will impose fines, and the cool factor will take a big hit. It is almost insulting to societies intelligence to use the description “cool factor.” Moreover, if the reader is fortunate enough to remember the time when regular cigarettes were sold by actors and cartoon characters among other notable figures, then “cool factor” description definitely makes sense. This is a statement from...

...Strategic Management Case Analysis: Samsung Electronics Memory chips were further classified into DRAM (Dynamic Random Access Memory), SRAM (Static RAM), and Flash memory. Flash memory, which was the hot-growth area, was used heavily in digital cameras and mobile phones. While DRAMs lost data when power was turned off, Flash memory could continue to store data in the absence of a power source. Considering the fact above, the flash memory market in the future will be very attractive. Along with the technology development there will be so many electronic devices using flash memory. Samsung started to create the advantage in Flash memory that it enjoyed in DRAM. Started in 1999, Samsung was seeking to move some of its production capacity from DRAMs to flash memory. Nowadays, people are always looking handy electronics device with multifunction ability and able to store huge data. Therefore, if Samsung makes investment in Flash memory technology, then it would be their advantage in the future. Foundry companies, whose sole business is manufacturing, have recently come to the fore, providing attractive outsourcing options. In addition to foundries, the ranks of increasingly specialized designers and chip testers are starting to swell. Chip companies are emerging leaner and more efficient. Four main product categories: Memory: Memory chips serve as temporary storehouses of data and pass information to and from computer devices' brains. Companies: Toshiba, Samsung and NEC ...

...In Electronics, Japan Still Matters Posted by: Bruce Einhorn on March 17, 2011 In the global technology industry's pecking order, Japanese consumer electronics companies long ago surrendered their top spot to more nimble competitors like Samsung Electronics andApple. Many of the country's chipmakers also struggled as competitors in Korea and Taiwan thrived. Meanwhile, marketing executives at major multinationals turned their attention to China and India, the world's new economic powers. For many, Japan was largely an afterthought, a declining power with an aging population. The turmoil following the March 11 earthquake has provided a rude reminder that, when it comes to the global electronics industry's supply chain, Japan still matters. The country's factories produce about one-fifth of the world's semiconductors and 40 percent of electronic components. Japan's Mitsubishi Gas Chemical and Hitachi Chemical combined make almost all of the world's BT Resin, a raw material used in chip packaging, and Hitachi Chemical has 70 percent market share for a type of chemical slurry used by semiconductor producers for polishing chips. Tech executives and investors therefore should be worrying about a prolonged shutdown of production in Japan, where many factories are closed and there's no clear sign of how much damage they suffered or when they might reopen. Typically, big chipmakers likeTaiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. keep between four to six weeks of supply, so uncertainty about...

Even before I move into my professional career everyone including myself will be using electronics. Electronics are used by everyone on a daily basis. Programming with python is a little more difficult than programming with scratch. They both differ in the way the code is written. Python can be easy to pick up whether you're a first time programmer or you're experienced with other language. So whether you’re a beginner or expert python can be used by anyone regardless of experience in coding languages. Python you physically have to write the code out to make it work. The python coding language can be used for quite a bit such as web and internet development, database access, desktop GUIs, scientific and numeric, education, network programming and software and game development. With Scratch you can program your own interactive stories, games, and animations. Scratch helps young people learn to think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively. Unlike python scratch uses a drag and drop coding system. All the pieces in scratch fit together like a puzzle. In python you must physically write out the code and if one little part is wrong nothing will work at all. One thing you can do with both scratch and python is to create a game such as pong or classic breakout....

...Electronic Paper For a thin and bendable display, Fabric PCs will rely on a cutting-edge technology called e-paper, or electronic paper. The technology behind e-paper was pioneered in the 1970s by Nick Sheridan at the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center and has continued to evolve since that time. Today there are several different implementations of the basic e-paper concept. One example of e-paper technology is called E ink, made by the E ink Corporation. We'll very briefly touch here on how E Ink technology works, but to learn much more about it, read How Electronic Ink Works. Basically, this form of e-paper is created by sandwiching millions of tiny plastic wells between two sheets of flexible plastic. Each well contains both white and black particles, suspended within a clear fluid. The key to this technology is that the white and black particles have opposite charges, so when an electric voltage is applied to individual wells -- through circuitry embedded underneath -- the black and white particles can be separated to opposite sides. In this way, the face-up side of each well can be set to appear either as black or white as seen through the top layer of clear plastic. Each well functions as a separate pixel on the E ink display. E-paper, based on this type of design, can be curled or even folded like a sheet of laminated paper, and because of its light weight and flexibility it's also much less fragile than traditional displays. Fujitsu's Fabric PC concept designs take...
