Internet technology has come out with a new technology called computer-assisted learning. The CAL is a web-based technology that is used for kids with disabilities.

This aritcle takes a look at how civics literacy is evolving with the technological advances of our time. The article goes on to talk about how technology has been helping these students learn. How the students can get more information and therefore a new way of learning through technological advances. This is a good source if you are looking for information on the evolution of civics learning

This text talks about how the technology effect kids. Kids with dissabilities say that there technologies have really helped with the speech and spelling for them.

The Kindle is a new technology with reading. This will read aloud to you no matter where you are. This new technology helps kids with their reading dissabilities by reading to them.

This is an article in the Journal of Computing Sciences in Colleges that argues the point that the majority of students possess basic computing skills, e.g., WWW, email, search engines (Google), instant messaging, etc., but this knowledge is not founded upon the technology itself; rather, students are mere consumers who learn to use such technologies only because they possess meaningful functionality.

This article is about children growing up in a world of technology. The way technology effectcs growing readers and their learning abilities. It also touches on how it changes the way they perceive reading.

This is a panel discussion in the Journal of Computing Sciences in Colleges that aims to address the issues associated with the advent of readily available multi-core and clustered computing systems. Moore's law has driven microprocessor architects to design platforms that exploit the performance gain of multi-core processors. The problem resides in the fact that many computer science curricula do not touch upon parallel computing because while the fundamentals may be relatively basic, other aspects of the technology is extremely difficult for students to understand and implement. However, this is the direction computer systems are headed and something must be done to utilize this technology to its fullest extent.

Kindle is a electronic book reader. In this technology, kindle is a hand-held device that will help you read. This technology will not only have the words on the screen, but it will read to you.

The author of this article emphasizes on the relationship between urban schools and other shcools. They realize the achievement gap and how it is increasing over the years. The students in urban schools were put through programs to help thier knowledge and to challenge them. The students of the school were to take classes on technology to help further technology because of how much we use it today. This will help students further thier knowledge and help them grow as an individual.

This article could be of use to students researching K-12 education or technological literacy.

The author reflects on the use of acronyms, jargon, and terminology in electronic engineering. According to the author, terminology is a very significant issue since a common language is vital for the proper exchange of information, particularly when a new technology is developed. The author believes that many of the terms for the various devices were developed given the fact that the technology involved is old and established. (Description provided by EBSCO.)

The author here thinks that technology should b used in all the classrooms and it diferentiates instruction. When mentioned to students they seem more enthused about learning. The author conducted a lot of research on how to incorporate testing into assessment. They give all the posiives about online testing and the advantages to it. The article also gives places where teachers can creat online tests and implement it into their classroom more.

Hanging out online helps teenagers develop "technological skills and literacy," a researcher on a new study said.

Newspapers have been battered by technological and economic forces, sure, but journalism has also delivered a one-two punch to its own jaw.

This article is about bringing virtual technology in the classroom. Making young kids technologicly literate. By bringing more learning aids through thechnology to make the young people more literate

The Authors of this article have conducted a study on 710 college students who were taking Pre-Calculus class. They were split into a controlled group, and a test group. The control group took the course using basic technology, and text books. The test group used graphics calculators and textbooks geared towards learning with graphics calculators. At the end of the course the students were required to take a comprehensive exam. The results showed that the students who took the course with the graphics calculators scored much higher than those who took the course in the traditional fashion. This study was conducted over a period of three semesters, and will prove very useful in my argumentation.

The authors of this article tried to generate search technology to view library resources; however, they found a number of problems. Because of these struggles, they conducted an experiment comparing Organ State University Libraries design to Google Scholar. They use volunteers to conduct research in an efficient and effective way to discover the reliability of each student. They used both qualitative and quantitative data to determine how Google compares to other search engines. This article also presents charts and tables that make understanding the experimental result with more ease.

This is an article from Design, Automation, and Test in Europe in Proceedings of the conference on Design, automation and test in Europe. The author of the article suggests the creation of a new type of profession that might result from the rapid advancement of hardware and software. Instead of having two separate entities that develop computer systems, the hardware and software professions, there will be one profession that handles the development of both. However, both existing professions would need to join together to make this possible. The hardware technology produced from this joining would be similar to field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), an architecture that can be "reprogrammed" on the fly. This profession would be more like the software development profession as the hardware can be reprogrammed for a particular task. I find this interesting as it could technically eliminate the lack of communication between hardware and software engineers as one would be handling both.

This paper is a report of a reviews discussed the psychometric propertied of instruments used in health care education. This will measure the attitudes and health care of the children.

A film on OhioLINK. For decades, IQ tests have been the gold standard for measuring intelligence. But is one standardized test really adequate for every taker? This program advocates a different approach, creating an array of unusual challenges to assess brainpower and positing an argument for the interplay of multiple intelligences. Assisted by the insights of Harvard's Howard Gardner and experts using brain scanning technology at UC Davis' M.I.N.D. Institute, the program brings together a group of obviously bright and talented people and presents them with trials of all shapes and sizes. The results establish the validity of measuring not just what people know but also the equally important ways in which they exercise their practical, creative, emotional, and kinesthetic IQs.
