A Generation Of Slackers By Catherine Rampell - 947 Words

As generations go by, our predecessors assume we are skipping out on important aspects of life just to get a few extra minutes on our devices. In Catherine Rampell’s â€Å"A Generation of Slackers? Not So Much†, it is said the older generations believe Generation Y is â€Å"coddled, disrespectful, narcissistic, and impatient† (Rampell 388). In all reality our generation is just doing what it has to in order to thrive in the world we live in, where technology is one of the largest parts of our everyday lives. If the older generations that criticize Generation Y had grown up in Generation Y they would realize the world we live in requires the use of technology. The advancement of society with technology has shaped Generation Y to be the people that they are, relying on technology; however, older generations believe Generation Y is lazy. The world we live in today depends on technology to run. We have phones that can practically do anything. That is where the older generations say we are lazy, it is not that we are lazy, instead we are intuitive and resourceful. These words are viewed differently by Generation Y as we are trying to simplify everything, allowing work to be done faster. For example, in â€Å"A Generation of Slackers? Not So Much† it states, â€Å"College students also spend fewer hours studying then their counterparts in 1961†¦Ã¢â‚¬  (Rampell 389). We no longer need to go to the library because we can access the wealth of information on the internet, which is always at our fingertips.

Attitudes/experiences of international students Statistics Project

Essays on Attitudes/experiences of international students Statistics Project Lecturer’s and Number Submitted Attitude/Experiences of International This paper attempts to investigatethe aspects of lifestyle, attitude, and experiences of the international students using statistical provisions. Method Participants The participants for the survey included the students, their friends, family members, and coworkers. Out of the participants, for the first survey (Survey A), 438 people were approached, but 345 agreed to participate in the survey. However, for the second survey (Survey B), only 265 people were approached but 240 people agreed to participate. Procedure The first step involved identification of the participants and a questionnaire, with the executed variables for the topic of study exclusively integrated. As described above, 585 participants were recruited for purposes of survey A and survey B. Qualitative and quantitative design was adopted as a formal, objective, systematic process to describe and test relationships and examine cause and effect interactions among variables. Descriptive surveys being used for descriptive, explanatory, and exploratory research design was used to collect original data from a sample of participants by means of self-report, that is, the people respond to a series of questions in the questionnaire. The key variables of interest for the study included; gender, period of study, age, nature of study, international student or not, course, employment, personality, attitude, life satisfaction, stress mindset, performance, and goal orientation. The variables were aimed at capturing the demographic data, personality, and performance data of the students, especially the international students. Measures Survey A was aimed at capturing the students attitudes with a 15-item questionnaire aimed at gathering the general information about the participants. The subjects in questions were gender, period of study, age, nature of study, international student or not, course, employment, personality, attitude, life satisfaction, stress mindset, performance, and goal orientation. Survey B was aimed at capturing the employee workplace information. With a 11-item questionnaire, Survey B aimed at gathering information on tenure, industry, size of the company, job satisfaction, attitude towards supervisor, and attitude towards current job (turnover). Result Descriptive Statistics According to table I, 2, 3, and 4, (Apendix1), the descriptive statistics shows that out of the most of the international students, 57.4% are female students, while 42.6% are male students (Appendix 4). From the data, 83.8% of the students are studying full time while 11.3% study part time (appendix 2). 83.2% of the international students major in JMSB, 4.6% in AS, 2.6% in ENCS, 1.2% in FA, while 7% major in others (appendix 3). The mean age for the international students is 22 years and the mean study hours per week are 12.0496 hours (appendix 1). Hypothesis Hypothesis 1: There is a negative relationship between being an international student and studying long hours and full time studies. By analyzing or comparing means using a two-way ANOVA test, the F-ratios for the status and studying hours are 4.619 and 3.036 respectively (appendix 9). In this case, if the null hypothesis is true, the F ratio is likely to be close to 1.0. If the null hypothesis is not true, the F- ratio is likely to be greater than 1.0. Considering the ANOVA result, the null hypothesis is rejected. Thus, the statement that there is a positive link between being an international student and studying long hours as well as taking full time study status is true. Most of the international students study long hours and take full time studies. Hypothesis 2: Most of the international students have negative attitude towards their supervisors at workplaces The p-value for positive attitude and negative attitude are 0.081 and 0.008 respectively while their significance levels are 0.138 and 0.132 respectively (appendix 7). This suggests that as some students have negative attitude, others have positive attitude for their supervisors at workplace. Thus, the hypothesis is rejected, as the p-value is less than their significance levels. Hypothesis 3: Most of international students are not satisfied with their current jobs According to appendix 8, the p-value for job satisfaction is -0.043 at significance level of 0.505. The p-value is less than the significance level, meaning that hypothesis is rejected. While most of the international students are not satisfied with the current jobs, a few are satisfied.

Information and Communication Technology Consumer Electronics

Question: Discuss about theInformation and Communication Technologyfor Consumer Electronics. Answer: Globalization has spread its wings nearly all over the world. It has introduced the world to a new term called digital convergence which includes four major areas that combined into one and they are Telecommunication, Information Technologies, Consumer Electronics, and Entertainment. But as it is known with something good also comes something bad. If this globalization has given as wings it has also created new areas of concern which includes ethical issues, legal issues, issues related to society and many more. There are many negative aspects of this and it includes cybercrime issue of a digital divide, privacy invasions, etc.(Liang, 2011). According to the Australian newspaper, the scope of cyber-attacks has been increased due to the explosion of the internet things. The major solution to this problem is educating the ICT professionals so that they understand and have the knowledge of all the technical issues and also have the knowledge of their responsibilities in the light of leg ality and ethicality(Wrong, 2017). ICT Professionals are those persons who have an up-to-date knowledge or understanding of a particular relevant field of their importance. ICT professionals stick to the agreed set of pattern to follow or pre-defined code of conduct, rules, and regulations(Tak eva, 2012). According to the Australian Computer Society (ACS) Professional Standards Board (2007), an ICT professional should possess following skills and knowledge like management and supervisory skills, should be able to review the performance of others as well as performance of self, should be innovative and many more other specifications related to this has been mentioned in the ACS Professional Standards Board(Lindley Aynsley, 2017; Weckert Lucas, 2013). Today the term Privacy is gaining weightage for both the industries as well as to the governments. Today many new privacy protection measures are being developed to fight cybercrime(Wrong, 2017).The concept of privacy in simple terms majorly revolves around the right of a person to be left alone without being disturbed in their private matters. It is often said that privacy is a person's natural right being a part of the legal right, so it means privacy is something that is protected officially by law(Britz, 2002). Privacy issues occur when an unwanted identity tries to access someone's system in an unauthorized manner. E-banking, E-commerce are some of the major areas that are being attacked as today this has added to the normal lifestyle of people, so, security becomes a major issue today (McDermid, 2015 ). ICT security is a club of many things like organizations rules and regulations, products as well as services, the behavior of individuals and many more things to name. Security in ICT revolves around guaranteeing the information' privacy. The security aspects of ICT can be related to a locker facility that protects the information in the locker as well as maintains high privacy related to the items in the locker(Lioy, 2009). Recently Australia took part in a conference related to security of information and communication technology in the USA. It was an Australian Cyber Security Mission which took place in San Francisco(Wrong, 2017). The risk that is related to this includes a risk of destruction of data available or corrupting the data available. Sometimes even some unidentified incidents happen that creates a threat to the enterprises or individuals(Eurostat, 2017). The threat to internet activities is called cybercrime. It includes any kind of crime that includes a computer and a network connection. Sometimes computers itself are the targets of the crime and sometimes the computers are used for committing such crimes. Computer viruses are one such program that corrupts the computer. It is even able to corrupt the other person's computers or any other electronic devices if connected with the hard drives of the corrupted computers. The most common way that is used to corrupt the computers is by the way of email. There is an attachment in this email and when this attachment is opened the virus immediately spreads in the whole computer. The other famous term related to cybercrime is cyber stalking. This is used as a means to stalk a person or harass an individual or any specific group by making the use of the internet. The activity of cyber stalking takes the shape of a crime when it is used to give repeated threatening to the people, or for harassing someone, or for monitoring someone without their permission or without letting they come to know. Another such issue of cybercrime is the identity theft. In this, a person steals someone's identity and then pretends to be that person and obtain all their personal records and can make use of it in a misleading way(Study.com, 2017). The other area of major concern is the Intellectual Property Rights. Intellectual property rights prevent from coping with any kind of logo or the product of a company. Today it is seen that intellectual property rights and ICT are developing at a rapid pace in close connection. Intellectual property rights protect the copyright of specific websites or software or even domain names(Bogaerts and Groenen, 2017). The other area of concern is the regulation of internet. The things that make it difficult to regulate the internet includes that the internet lacks centralized control, the main issue being the nature of the internet that is worldwide, it even hides the identity of the sender by its facility of anonymity and pseudonymity (Parliament of Australia, 2017). The government of Australia has come up with many laws and regulations to control the activities of internet at both the Commonwealth level as well as at the State level. Commonwealth laws are applied on the service providers o f the internet and on the content hosts of internet but are not applied to the content providers. On the other hand, the state and territory criminal laws are applied on the content providers as well as on the ordinary users of the internet. It protects from advertisement of something objectionable or something that is unsuitable or illegal(Electronic Frontiers, 2006). The ICT is gaining importance today in everyone's life. It is having a great impact on every human being. But still, there are many parts of Australia that are still not connected with the information and communication technology. The facilities related to education, financial benefits and many more things that can be utilized with the help of ICT are still not reached to many people of Australia. So, it is the duty of the policy makers of the country to make such policies that reduce digital dived in the country. Social inclusion of digital world is very important. And for this to happen it is very important to provide people with necessary resources and opportunities(Digital Inclusion Index, 2017). Technology has also had a great impact on the family as well as community making and their development and maintaining their social relationships. As modernization intervened the concept of nuclear families also emerged and so felt the need of ICT by these families and communities in order to stay connected with each other. This gave more push to the development of information and communication technology, as telephones were used more to stay connected the curiosity to know what is going on in the another part of the world gave a push for more and more radios and television sets. And if seen today the social networking sites are gaining tremendous importance. The internet has helped to develop a new virtual community for people where they can stay connected despite the fact of being miles apart. ICT has also helped to build the identity of individuals, specific groups, etc. like the talk of feminism started by making use of ICT has gained identity in the society and has also been abl e to bring the desired change. Many social groups have also been come to be recognized with the help of ICT. So, it can be said that ICT has helped to bring the change near us that we are seeing today. Even a small activity taking place in any corner of the world is known by every person in the world because of ICT, whether good or bad now everyone is aware of everything taking place across the world(McDermid D. , 2015). The technical aspects if seen of ICT include Pervasive Computing and Convergent Computing. Pervasive computing is also called ubiquitous computing. The work of this computing is that it embeds the microprocessors in the objects of everyday use so that they are able to communicate the necessary information. The meaning of this term is one that exists everywhere. The services of pervasive computing are always connected and are always available. The main thing this computing requires is internet, wireless technologies, as well as advanced electronics. The main aim of this is creating a product that is able to communicate effectively and efficiently. On the other hand, the other computing system that is convergent computing system focuses on meeting the technological needs of any business. It aims to plan the solution for problems, implementation of any technology or any other activity related to implementation as well as it also helps with infrastructure solutions as well as enterprise cloud facilities(CCO, 2017). So, to conclude it can be said that though information and communication and technology has opened many gates to success it has also opened few gates that can be a serious damage to the society, if not checked properly or controlled on time. There are many such cases for which the society will be thankful for such an innovation in this field that has helped to connect several aspects of the society and activities as well. But everything has some demerits some which can be checked and repaired and some from which one can stay away by remaining aware of. Necessary mitigation steps should be taken to avoid any kind of problems. And as it is a known fact that corruption can never be ended but it can be reduced to a certain extent, so is the case with the problems and flaws of information and communication technologies.

History Of The Internet Essays (1102 words) - Internet Protocols

History Of The Internet A Brief History Of The Internet By default, any definitive history of the Internet must be short, since the Internet (in one form or another) has only been in existence for less than 30 years. The first iteration of the Internet was launched in 1971 with a public showing in early 1972. This first network, known as ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency NETwork) was very primitive by today's standards, but a milestone in computer communications. ARPANET was based upon the design concepts of Larry Roberts (MIT) and was fleshed out at the first ACM symposium, held in Gaithersburg, TN in 1966, although RFPs weren't sent out until mid 1968. The Department of Defense in 1969 commissioned ARPANET, and the first node was created at the University of California in Los Angeles, running on a Honeywell DDP-516 mini-computer. The second node was established at Stanford University and launched on October first of the same year. On November 1, 1969, the third node was located at the University of California, Santa Barbara and the fourth was opened at the University of Utah in December. By 1971 15 nodes were linked including BBN, CMU, CWRU, Harvard, Lincoln Lab, MIT, NASA/Ames, RAND, SDC, SRI and UIU(C). In that same year, Larry Roberts created the first email management program. As a side note, Ray Tomlinson is the person who established the @ sign as a domain/host designator from his Model 33 Teletype. The first international connection to ARPANET is established when the University College of London is connected in 1973, and RFC-454 File Transfer Protocol was published. 1973 was also the year that Dr. Robert Metcalf's doctoral thesis outlined the specifications for Ethernet. The theory was tested on Xerox PARCs computers. 1974 saw the launch of TELNET public packet data service. UUCP (Unix-to-Unix Copy Protocol) was developed at AT&T Bell Labs in 1976, and distributed with UNIX the following year. 1978 saw the split of TCP into TCP and IP. In 1979 the first MUD (Multi-User Domain) was created by Dr. Ri chard Bartle and Roy Trubshaw from the University of Essex, and was the foundation for multi-player games (among other things). This event marked the gradual decline of productivity over the Internet. In 1981 a cooperative network between CUNY (City University of New York) and Yale was established. This network was called BITNET (Because It's There NETwork) and was designed to provide electronic mail transfer and list serve services between the two institutions. RFC-801 NCP/TCP Transition Plan was published that same year. It was because of the growing interconnectivity of new networks that the phrase Internet was coined in 1982, and the Department of Defense also declared TCP/IP to be its defacto standard. The first name server was developed in 1983 at the University of Wisconsin, allowing users to access systems without having to know the exact path to the server. 1983 also saw the transition from NCP to TCP/IP, and it was at this same time that ARPANET was split into ARPANET and MILNET. 68 of the current 113 existing nodes were assigned to MILNET. It was also in 1983 that a San Francisco programmer, Tom Jennings wrote the first FidoNet Bulletin Board System, which was capable of allowing both email and message passing over the Internet between networked BBSs by 1988. In 1984, the number of hosts on the Internet broke 1000, and DNS (Domain Name Services) was introduced. Moderated newsgroups also made their first appearance this year, although it would be almost a year and a half before NNTP (Network New Transfer Protocol) would be introduced. In 1985, the WELL (Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link) was launched out of Sausalito California, allowing San Francisco Bay Area users free access to the Internet. The Internet had grown so fast, and to such large proportions by this time that some control was needed to oversee its expansion, so in 1986, the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and Internet Research Task Force (IRTF) came into existence under the IAB. 1988 S aw the advent of IRC (Internet Relay Chat), developed by Jarkko Oikarinen, and it can be safely assumed that the first Hot Chat took place very shortly afterwards. By 1989 the number of Internet hosts

Free Essays on McCarthyism

McCarthyism McCarthyism was a time period throughout the 1940’s and 1950’s where America was overwhelmed with concerns about the threat of communism growing in Eastern Europe and China. Emphasizing on those concerns, a young Senator named Joseph McCarthy publicly accused more than two hundred "card-carrying" communists for infiltrating the United States government. McCarthy claimed to have a list of Communists who worked in the State Department. Although his accusations remained unsupported and a Senate committee labeled them "a fraud and a hoax," McCarthy won a national following. Naming the Democrats as a party of treason, he called his political enemies as "soft on Communism". McCarthyism came to mean false charges of disloyalty. In the Crucible, a lot of the townspeople were wrongfully accused of witchcraft. A lot of the accusations were based on unfair investigative techniques all to prove â€Å"disloyalty† to the town, or its residents. None of the information used against the accused was necessarily true, but nevertheless was still used against the people to prove wrong doings. The whole situation was based on false ideas, and was all made up to hurt and ruin reputations. Some people just wanted to get rid of others, but they picked a harmful and cruel way to do so. McCarthyism is linked to the Crucible in the fact that both use unfair accusations to expose disloyalty or subversion. There shouldn’t have been a time or a place for either to occur because it didn’t do anything but hurt the people linked to it. Both were unjust, and lacked actual evidence or proof to pull of the desired â€Å"scheme†. Neither should have been done or even attempted. It was a mistake in history, which only left scars on the people it wounded. It teaches a lesson for everybody to not wrongfully accuse your neighbor, because it causes complications in relationships between people and never helps out the situation. Fin...
