...How Electronics Will Fit Into My Professional Life How will electronics fit into my professional life? As I move on after college into my professional career I will be using electronics daily. 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....

By: Shequita Kelly Table of contents: Career OverviewTraining, Qualifications, and AdvancementEmploymentJob OutlookEarnings/ Works Cited Introduction I chose to research the profession of an health information technician. I chose this profession because I like working with technology and want a career in healthcare. I am also detail-oriented, organized and interested in science and medicine. I believe that a job as a health information technician could be the right fit for me. My paper will inform you on the advantages of following a career in the health information technician career field. First of all, this one of the few jobs in the medical industry that has no hands on contact with patients. Another advantage is the wages that can be made and the benefits provided by employers. The last point to be made is that the employment rate is expected to grow it fastest ever in the years to come. The first advantage that will be discussed is the work environment and the different specialties. This job is done mainly inside the comforts of an office, at a desk. The majority of the work is mainly done on a computer. Even though most of the work is done on a computer there is still some work that is done over the phone and paper work that may need to be filed. A health information technician has no hands-on contact with patients what so ever. People in this field tend to work the standard 40 hour work week, with all national...

...Wearable Computers EEE 439 What is a Wearable Computer? As we continue to integrate computers into our everyday lives at an ever faster rate, the idea that a static desktop, or even a portable laptop can fulfill all of our computing needs is becoming increasingly more ridiculous. The integration of technology constantly creates situations in which we pause and think, “If only I had a computer,” The wearable computer does this. It goes where you go, it does what you do. Its there when you want to use it, unobtrusive when you don’t. So what is a wearable computer? Why don’t we just put our laptops on a sling? In 1998, Steve Mann gave a keynote address at the International Conference on Wearable Computing in which he explained the operational modes of wearable computers and six defining traits of a true wearable computer. According to Mr. Mann, the wearable computer creates three new modes of interaction between human and computer which have not existed before. These three new modes of operation are Constancy, Augmentation, and Mediation (Mann, 1998). Constancy means that the computer is always on and available for use by the user; traditional devices are turned off and closed when not in use. Augmentation is the idea that wearable computers will augment the user’s abilities instead of merely providing computing power on demand. Mann splits Mediation into two different areas; Solitude – the ability to cut oneself off from material, and Privacy – the ability to block or modify...

...Mac and Pc. Many people pick a computer based on what they are used for to and don’t find the computer that’s right for them. Others don’t find out the facts about each computer and just go with the cheapest because it’s cheap, even though they would be getting a cheap computer it can still be the wrong kind of computer for them, plus it wouldn’t work to their advantage. Before reading this you have to dismiss the ideas you had about Mac’s and Pc’s. If you put aside what you think you know about Pc, and Mac you will understand what computer is best for you. “Mac is a line of personal (PCs) designed, developed, and marketed by Inc. It was initially targeted mainly at the home, education, and creative professional markets. Since the introduction of the Macintosh, the computer has seen significant evolution now making it one of, if not the most powerful general-purpose computers on the market. It now targets the business, science, and law markets as well.” “Microsoft Windows is a series of graphical interface operating systems developed, marketed, and sold by Microsoft. Microsoft introduced an operating named Windows on November 20, 1985 as a graphical operating system shell for MS-DOS in response to the growing interest in graphical user interfaces (GUI).[4] Microsoft Windows came to dominate the world’s computer market with over 90% market share, overtaking Mac OS, which had been introduced in 1984.” The most important part of both computer systems is the cold hard facts between...

... Anti-discrimination Laws Related to Employment An important task that leaders face is attracting and recruiting employees that are top level performers. Most companies still post bland, uninteresting job descriptions, crossing their fingers in hope that they will find the ideal individual who is an organizational fit. In addition, the most shocking aspect of this is that most business leaders focus their resources and efforts going after the 17% of candidates who are actively seeking employment, yet desire to employ the 83% who are not looking for work (Adler, 2013). Employers want to hire top performers, but most are not cognizant of doing so in effective ways and avoid violating anti-discrimination and other significant employment laws. For example, Adler (2013) informs that there are a variety of reasons that hiring managers have a hard time finding the best recruits, including that: employers depend on a surplus of candidates during the hiring process, but seek them in a talent scarce environment; candidates do not know how to engage in the hiring game; and few hiring managers take responsibility for attracting quality candidates because they are focused on attracting quantity, hoping to discover that diamond in the rough. These are all significant issues that need to be addressed, dissected, understood, and reframed in a strategic manner to produce the most effective hiring programs that will attract...

...Anti-Discrimination within The Workplace Erik Ortega BUS 670 Legal Environment Professor David MacKusick August 20, 2015 Many employers are facing the difficult challenge of bringing and recruiting employees that are excellent performers. Most of the companies of today still continue to post vague, bland, and uninteresting job descriptions in the hopes that they will land them a candidate who is the ideal fit for the position and the company as a whole. Having a full recruitment strategy in place eliminates any potential risk when deciding who to employ and bring into your professional life (Caan, 2015). Companies want to hire top performing employees, but most are not aware of strategic and effective ways to help avoid violating any anti-discrimination and other employment law. As (Caan, 2015) states “After shortlisting the final candidates, I like them to carry out a practical task, such as doing a presentation or preparing a report. This is a great way to show whether their bark is bigger than their bite, or if they really do have the goods to deliver on their interviews.” These are some significant tasks that need to be understood and used in a strategic manner to help ensure that the hiring process will attract the best candidate to fill the position. In this paper, I will be preparing an advertisement for the position that my hiring manager is hiring for. In this advertisement, I will be providing the job description, description of duties, and a description...

...Singh 2015, as the application of information science to improve efficiency, accuracy, reliability of healthcare service, and inclusion of healthcare delivery. Healthcare informatics is becoming more complex than any other time in recent memory, the foundation needed to bolster device utilization and interoperability is more expanded, and there is even a more extensive scope of utilization to consider. As the populace ages, there is added pressure to provide patient care choices at home and in the community, implying that medical devices are getting to be a piece of a much bigger ecosystem spreading over the steadily developing continuum. This paper will analyze health informatics and discuss its benefits, trends, current issues, the impact health informatics in healthcare settings, and the role of health managers and the future. An interview will be conducted with a health professional to get their point of view of how health informatics have impacted their workplace, with further discussion of human resources, careers and the future. History The U.S. National Library of Medicine defines health informatics as a collaborative effort of designing, developing, adopting, and applying IT-based ideas in healthcare services delivery, management and planning (Kramer, 2012). In 1949, Gustav Wager of Germany founded the first professional organization for informatics and established the German Society for Medical Documentation, Computer Science, and Statistics.
