    "Corporations and governments are starting to worry about a common set of related issues. During the last two months I was fortunate to participate in several conversations with top corporate executives and foreign government officials all of whom are visiting Silicon Valley with increasing frequency. The conversations covered topics ranging from innovation and the rapid technological changes we are experiencing and must adapt to, the mismatch of skills and jobs and the changes we must institute to meet our evolving labor needs, and the state of the world economy and the continued impact of globalization. I want to summarize the topics being discussed by these diverse constituencies and provide a place for relevant comments and opinions."

  • ASSIST’s most powerful application to date is called Tactical Ground Reporting System or TIGR (why not TGRS?), which is being used by soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan.
  • Maeda set the stage by telling us of how intelligence in the military traditionally flows.  Soldiers observe something (e.g., men in keffiyeh with Kalashnikovs coming from and going to a mud-walled compound) and write up a report, which is passed up the chain of command to someone with the authority to decide whether or not to initiate an activity (e.g., call in an airstrike).  The information moves upward in the organization, and the soldier who made the observation may never know how it was used.
  • It’s the soldiers who need to know what’s happening in the compound, knowledge that could mean the difference between life and death.

    ASSIST's most powerful application to date is called Tactical Ground Reporting System or TIGR, which is being used by soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. This helps the soldier be able to get the information to his commander and then to the head person to decide if they will need to make a move on the threat.

  • were free not only to bring their mobile devices to school, but also to use them—at their teachers’ discretion—to connect to the school’s wireless network to do their work.
  • The students do see [a smartphone] as a potential learning tool
  • “There’s an appropriate time to use the device and not use the device. If I’m teaching and lecturing, you should not have that device out. If you get it out while I’m teaching or lecturing, you’re going to lose your privacy and have to go back to pencil and paper.”

    Gives an example of a school who is going to give students the chance to use their mobile device during school hours. They will later have a catch up story to see whether they thought it was a success or not
