Different types of technology How I use ICT at home and at school
Unit 3a - Different types of technology How I use ICT at home and at school In our current generation, the advances of mankind have been significantly massive. With technology such as laptops, iPads and such, old fashioned technology has been deemed insignificant. Just an iPad would have the capability blowing away the greatest technology from, for example, 10 or so years ago. And thus, technology is constantly being used; from ways to help advance and develop the world further on to being used for personal relief/enjoyment. But what benefits can we gain from using these technologies and why do we constantly use and depend on them over and over? Well, there are many different advantages to using technology and well as different uses the basics being - personal usage, social usage and home usage and each of these uses have their different benefits. Personal usage covers uses that benefit mostly the user him/herself, whether that may be at work, at home or even on the road. Social usage covers uses which are not only beneficial to the user him/herself, but also involves society with different interactions with the user and other members of society, whether on a social networking site or an instant messaging service. And lastly, home usage covers uses which are simply used at home whether that may be for comfort, general purposes or just for entertainment. Technology
Film Studies The Studio System
Faculty of English Llanishen High School Film Studies The Studio System Key point about the studio system could be: Despite being one of the biggest industries in the United States, indeed the World, the internal workings of the 'dream factory' that is Hollywood is little understood outside the business. The Hollywood Studio System: A History is the first book to describe and analyse the complete development, classic operation, and reinvention of the global corporate entities which produce and distribute most of the films we watch. Starting in 1920, Adolph Zukor, head of Paramount Pictures, over the decade of the 1920s helped to fashion Hollywood into a vertically integrated system, a set of economic innovations which was firmly in place by 1930. For the next three decades, the movie industry in the United States and the rest of the world operated by according to these principles. Cultural, social and economic changes ensured the demise of this system after the Second World War. A new way to run Hollywood was required. Beginning in 1962, Lew Wasserman of Universal Studios emerged as the key innovator in creating a second studio system. He realized that creating a global media conglomerate was more important than simply being vertically integrated. Gomery's history tells the story of a 'tale of two systems 'using primary materials from a score of archives across

Why did tension increase in Europe between 1900 and 1914?
CONFLICT IN THE MODERN WORLD: INTERNATIONAL HISTORY 1900-1939 Why did tension increase in Europe between 1900 and 1914? Germany * Germany was the leading industrial and military power on the continent. In 1871 it had taken Alsace-Lorraine from France after the Franco-Prussian War. * Since 1887 the ruler of Germany had been Kaiser Wilhelm II. He had begun to pursue adventurous policies after the resignation of his chancellor Bismarck in 1890. * In 1898 and 1900 the German Navy Laws were passed. This threatened Britain's control of the seas. The two laws laid out plans for the construction of a large navy designed to rival Britain's by 1917. This was an example of the Kaiser's determination to make Germany a world power. Britain * In Britain the Laws were viewed with alarm since there was no apparent reason why Germany needed a navy, except to attack Britain. Britain depended on control of the seas in order to protect her vast empire. * The British government replied by beginning a programme of warship construction intended to maintain the 'two-power standard', which had been the basis of naval policy in the late nineteenth century. It simply stated that the British navy should be as big as the next two largest navies in the world. * The Kaiser also encouraged the creation of a German Empire. This also challenged Britain's dominant position. However, by 1914 there were
The Use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) And International Technology Transfer by Non-Governmental Developmental Organisations in Africa
DISSERTATION DOCUMENT COMPLETE CHAPTER 1-7 27/11/01 The Use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) And International Technology Transfer by Non-Governmental Developmental Organisations in Africa ABSTRACT This Research work is based on the Use of Geographic Information system (GIS) and international technology transfer to Developing Countries (Africa) by Non-Governmental Development organisation. NGDO are involved in initiating and Implementing development projects in Developing Countries. They discover that with the use of GIS in their projects, scarce resources could be appropriately distributed using GIS system for the intervention measures identified. The GIS Technology seen by NGDO playing a role in improving decision making and planning (Mather1997); used the new mapping technology to assist in agricultural development throughout the third world (CIRAD 1994); seen playing a leading role in environmental assessment in the third world (World bank); GIS seen as technology that remove the 'political' from the decision making process and allows for an equitable and fair distribution of resources. GIS has many problems both at the development stages and the implementation and use. Some of the problems included: Data Capture, Data access, National infrastructures, Organisational issues (such as Management acceptance, Top management involvement, GIS users participation);
Urbana at Feliza: Review. Urbanisasyon ang panawagan sa panahong pinalalago ang kalakalan upang lalong mapatampok ang halaga ng salapi at sistemang kapital.
ANG URBANA AT FELIZA ni modesto de castro AT ANG TRAFFIC ROAD SIGNS AND REGULATIONS SA METRO MANILA MGA BATAS - ETIKA SA PANAHON NG URBANISASYON ni GLECY C. ATIENZA Urbanisasyon ang panawagan sa panahong pinalalago ang kalakalan upang lalong mapatampok ang halaga ng salapi at sistemang kapital. Sa panahon ng pag-unlad ng urbanisasyon, ang mga sentro ng kalakalan ay nakapagtatatag ng sistema ng palitan ng produkto.Upang mapabilis ang daloy ng mga produkto mula sa isang lugar tungo sa susunod, lumilikha ng mga daanang makatutugon sa mga pangangailangang ito. Umiikot ang kapital, nagpapalipat-lipat ang mga produkto mula sa isang lugar tungo sa mamimili kasabay ng pagdami ng salapi at ng kita. Upang mapadaloy ang ganitong palitan, mahalagang magkaroon ng batas etikang makapagpapatatag sa ganitong uri ng kalakaran.Itong mga batas na ito ang siyang magtitiyak na ang daloy ng produkto at ang pagkamal ng salapi ay patuloy na nagaganap sa lahat ng larangan--mula sa mga produktong ikinakalakal hanggang sa serbisyo ng lakas-paggawa na inilalaan ng mga taong kasangkot sa kabuuang daloy ng sistemang ito. Mahalagang magkaroon ng batas ng mga dapat at hindi dapat. Mahalagang magkaroon ng mga tanda ang mga batas ito na tuwina'y isasagawa ng mga mamamayan , saan man sila naroon, sa anumang panahon, sa lahat ng uri ng anyo at manipestasyon nito, bilang pagsubay sa mga batas na
Service quality in museums, a case study - cambridge and county folk museum
UNIVERSITY OF BRIGHTON ABSTRACT SCHOOL OF SERVICE MANAGEMENT MA IN TOURISM MANAGEMENT DISSERTATION TOPIC: SERVICE QUALITY IN MUSEUMS, A CASE STUDY: CAMBRIDGE & COUNTY FOLK MUSEUM By Eleutheria Kendristaki This study investigates service quality in the museum sector. Service quality has become a central issue in service industries for many years. However, it has only recently been discussed and its importance emphasised in museums. As competition increases in the leisure sector, quality service is an advantage that increases the number of new and repeat users. This dissertation includes a detailed literature review of service quality in general service industries and the issues of applying service quality to the museum sector. The case study-investigates whether or not the Cambridge & County Folk Museum delivers quality of service to external customers. The Folk Museum, like many major independent museums, faces decreasing visitor numbers due to changes in leisure patterns and public tastes. The service quality of the Museum needs to be reviewed, as it is preparing for a period of major redevelopment. This research project includes several surveys. Potential audience and current visitor questionnaires are used to assess the Folk Museum's quality of service from the point of external customers through ten determinants of service quality.

Why Is the Middle East a Conflict Area?
Why Is the Middle East a Conflict Area? Over the last hundred years, the Middle East has been one of the most troubled regions in the world. According to the Economist, "With barely an exception, [the Arab world's] autocratic rulers, whether presidents or kings, give up their authority only when they die; its elections are a sick joke; half its people are treated as lesser legal and economic beings, and more than half its young, burdened by joblessness and stifled by conservative religious tradition, are said to want to get out of the place as soon as they can." However, at one time, the Middle East eclipsed the West in intellectual, scientific, and literary achievements. To examine what factors contribute to the Middle East's present circumstances, a team of scholars, headed by Egyptian sociologist Nader Fergany, published the Arab Human Development Report 2002, an analysis of the Arab world's strengths and weaknesses. The study found three key attributes for success in the modern world that the Arab community lacks: freedom, knowledge, and womanpower. According to the study, the absence of freedom is most visible in the region's absolute autocracies, sham elections, and restrictions on the media and on civil society. The authors contend that "the [global] wave of democracy that transformed governance . . . in the 1980s and early 1990s has barely reached the Arab states."
