ICTs
· The Internet is not widely available in most
LDCs; radio and TV are Broadcast technologies such as radio and
television have a much greater penetration than the Internet throughout much of
the developing world, and the substantial gap is not expected to be closed
soon.
· Radio
and TV can have high start-up costs, and reinforce existing pedagogical styles Educational
initiatives that utilize radio and television typically have quite high initial
start-up/capital costs, but once they are up and running, on-going maintenance
and upgrade costs are much lower (making initiatives utilizing radio and TV for
distance learning in the educations sector particularly appealing for donor
support in many cases). One-to-many broadcast technologies like radio and
television (as well as satellite distribution of electronic content) are seen
as less ‘revolutionary’ ICTs in education, as their usage is seen as
reinforcing of traditional instructor-centric learning models, unlike
computers, which many see as important tools in fostering more learner-centric
instructional models.
Radio instruction has been used widely and is
reasonably well studied Radio instruction in formal education has been
well studied, especially the links between the use of radio in combination with
school-based educational resources and a variety of pedagogical practices.
TV has been used with success in a few places Television has been
utilized successfully as a mechanism for reaching out-of-school youth in a
number of countries, especially in Latin America and China, and the results of
such projects have been widely disseminated.
It is
unclear where to place computers to make sure they are used most efficiently There
is very little research on the most appropriate placement of computers in
schools, or in the community, used to achieve various learning objectives.
Multi-channel
learning is a useful concept The emerging practice of ‘multi-channel
learning’, which focuses on enriching the educational experience by engaging
all resources that are available to help effect incremental change by
coordinating the various ways to connect learners with information, knowledge,
and stimulation, and to mediate those interactions, provides valuable insight
into how blended learning approaches can be delivered and tailored in areas of
great resource scarcity.
Tablets
This elements are perfect for helping the user searching information,
making homeworks, remebering dates and the most important it is used in a right
way, to have a fast an easy communication. You can download apps like Facebook,
whastapp, and used them to talk with your Friends.
Smartwatch
Is like a watch but has the same system of a cellphone. You can Access to internet and download almost the same apps as te cellphone. It is really usefull for cummunication too and aloud you to search information.
News
Its a realy helpfull tool for people who want to keep informed of what is happening. You can find it online and buy it physically. Gives us lots of information.
GPS
Its a tool that help us to search places and surf internet to facilitate arriving somewhere you do not know or you are not sure of it´s ubication.
Robots
as drones they are used for risky tasks, they can store information, help searching new discoveries that can be really important in ICTs area, lead information from one place to another
Drones
It's a really innovative tool, one of its functions is to keep security in army, mostly used in usa. It´s used as a type of camera too and for scientific investigation.
CELLPHONE
A mobile phone
is a telephone
that can make and receive calls over a radio frequency carrier while the
user is moving within a telephone service area. The radio frequency link
establishes a connection to the switching systems of a mobile phone operator, which provides
access to the public switched telephone network
(PSTN). Most modern mobile telephone services use a celllar
network architecture, and therefore mobile telephones are often also
called cellular telephones or cell phones.
EvolutionUse of cellphone
Mobile phones are used for a variety of purposes, such as keeping in touch with family members, for conducting business, and in order to have access to a telephone in the event of an emergency. Some people carry more than one mobile phone for different purposes, such as for business and personal use. Multiple SIM cards may be used to take advantage of the benefits of different calling plans. For example, a particular plan might provide for cheaper local calls, long-distance calls, international calls, or roaming.
Future evolution
5G is a
technology and term used in research papers and projects to denote the next
major phase in mobile telecommunication standards beyond the 4G/IMT-Advanced
standards. The term 5G is not officially used in any specification or official
document yet made public by telecommunication companies or standardization
bodies such as 3GPP,
WiMAX
Forum or ITU-R.
New standards beyond 4G are currently being developed by standardization
bodies, but they are at this time seen as under the 4G umbrella, not for a new
mobile generation.
Deloitte
is predicting a collapse in wireless performance to come as soon as 2016, as
more devices using more and more services compete for limited bandwidth for
their operation.
INNOVATION
We created a cellphone which will be used as a normal one but when it is dropped or falls it bounces so the screen won't get broken. It will be possible because of the material is made of type og gum and the glass is protected in every position for this reboundable gum.
