...and disadvantages to the teaching and learning experience. Unfortunately, there are only three IT (information technology) employees in the whole district, therefore, it is not as easy to acquire technological services and support when the internet stops working or when teachers cannot access Google. Mrs. B always makes sure to have a backup plan for when problems like this occur, because if students are not engaged you are going to lose their interest and attention. Technology has a lot to do with engaging the students into the lesson. A great example of the pros and cons of technology in the classroom can be found in Vignette 1. Vignette 1: It is the second week of observations and my partner and I have already noticed the disruptions that occur within the first five hours of the school day. This is also the day we asked Mrs. B and Mrs. M about the cell phone policy for Highland High School. Mrs. B let us know that the AP students would be annotating the song lyrics to Simon and Garfunkel’s “Sound of Silence. However, when class begins and Mrs. B is ready to get started google stops working. Because this frequently happens, Mrs. B did plan a backup. She had them cut and paste the lyrics of the song in their notebook, and annotate them first. During that time, google began to work, and the class was able to listen to both the Simon and Garfunkel and the Disturbed versions of “Sound of Silence,” as Mrs. B had originally planned. After listening and taking time to analyze the text...

...ucu 403business management information systems | Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) and Knowledge Work Systems | By: | Andrew Otieno BML/00018/1/2012Stanley Mwangi BML/000StellaDavid | Knowledge Management (KM) Knowledge Management involves developing and managing integrated, well-configured knowledge systems and increasingly embedding work systems within these knowledge systems. It involves systematically & actively managing and leveraging stores of knowledge in an organization. To do this, an organization needs to put in place; * Knowledge Work Systems (KWS) – to create knowledge * Office Automation Systems (OAS) – to distribute knowledge * Group Collaboration Systems (GCS) – to share knowledge * Artificial Intelligence Applications (AI) – to capture and codify knowledge Knowledge work systems (KWS) Knowledge work systems, such as scientific or engineering design workstations, promote the creation of new knowledge and ensure that new knowledge and technical expertise are properly integrated into the business. Knowledge work systems (KWS) serve the information needs at the knowledge level of the organization. Knowledge work systems can be defined as the information systems that aid knowledge workers to create and integrate new knowledge into the organization. A knowledge worker is a professional that intensely applies/generates knowledge at work. Their jobs consist primarily of creating new information and knowledge, like engineers, doctors and...

...http://www.rediff.com/money/2006/sep/29bspec.htm What is 3G spectrum? How does it help It's boom time for mobile phones in India [ Images ]. And people are looking forward to more information, faster data access and multimedia services through their mobile phones. 3G technology is here to turn this dream into reality. It's a technology anxiously awaited by telecom operations and subscribers in India. How long do you have to wait? Not very long! India is all set to launch 3G mobile telephone services by June 2007. According to Telecom Regulatory Authority of India chairman Nripendra Misra, a total of 32.5 MHz is available for allocation within the next 6-9 months. Trai has also recommended auctioning 200 MHz for broadband wireless access services like Wimax (worldwide interoperability for microwave access) and has proposed a national frequency management board to oversee spectrum availability and its efficient use. He hopes that the allocated spectrum would be enough for the next two years and said Trai would recommend freeing up more spectrum for those who lose out in this auction. So what is 3G spectrum all about? Read on. What is spectrum? Radio spectrum refers to a range of radio frequencies. The bandwidth of a radio signal is the difference between the upper and lower frequencies of the signal. For example, in the case of a voice signal having a minimum frequency of 200 hertz (Hz) and a maximum frequency of 3,000 Hz, the bandwidth is 2,800 Hz (3 KHz). The amount...

...John Bartlow Martin / The Blast in Centralia No. 5: A Mine Disaster No One Stopped Already the crowd had gathered. Cars clogged the short, black rock road from the highway to the mine, cars bearing curious spectators and relatives and friends of the men entombed. State troopers and deputy sheriffs and the prosecuting attorney came, and officials from the company, the Federal Bureau of Mines, the Illinois Department of Mines and Minerals. Ambulances ar- rived, and doctors and nurses and Red Cross workers and soldiers with stretchers from Scott Field. Mine res- cue teams came, and a federal rescue unit, experts bur- dened with masks and oxygen tanks and other awkward paraphernalia of disaster. . . . One hundred and eleven men were killed in that explosion. Killed needlessly, for almost everybody concerned had known for months, even years, that the mine was dangerous. Yet nobody had done any- thing effective about it. Why not? Let us examine the background of the explosion. Let us study the mine and the miners, Joe Bryant and Bill Rowekamp and some others, and also the numerous people who might have saved the miners’ lives but did not. The miners had appealed in various directions for help but got none, not from their state government nor their federal government nor their employer nor their own union. (In threading the maze of official- dom we must bear in mind four agencies in author- ity: The State of Illinois, the United States Government, the Centralia...

...Assessing Your Leadership Style to Achieve Organizational Objectives EILEEN NEWMAN RUBIN Research has shown that there are more than 30 differently named leadership styles, ranging from micro-management to hands-off, each with its own proponents. Six, however, stand out as most com- monly found in business: authoritarian, democratic, transformational, laissez-faire, servant, and situa- tional. A review of the experiences of six leaders who embody these styles reveals that each mode of operating has its pros and cons; there is no sin- gle best approach. Being aware of one’s leadership style and that of others makes it possible to lever- age strengths and compensate for weaknesses and to properly match individuals to a particular role or task—for the good of the entire organization. ©C 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Whether they are involved in politics, corporate America, or a nonprofit endeavor, the style in which managers and other professionals exert their lead- ership can determine the outcome of their efforts. As the American businessman and political fig- ure Erskine Bowles said, “Leadership is the key to 99 percent of all successful efforts” (Kruse, 2012). But what is the best leadership style to use? There is no simple answer to this seemingly simple ques- tion. One’s leadership style depends on several fac- tors, including the personality of the leader, the or- ganizational culture (and the many subcultures that may exist within it), the personalities of the people...
