CAI & VAI CAI : Computer Assisted Instruction refers to the use of computers to deliver educational content, provide interactive learning experiences, and assess student performance. Advantages of CAI 1. Individualized Learning 2. Interactive and Engaging 3. Immediate Feedback 4. Accessibility and Flexibility 5. Efficient Tracking and Assessment Disadvantages of CAI: 1. Lack of Human Interaction 2. Technical Issues 3. Costly Implementation 4. Over-reliance on Technology 5. Accessibility Barriers Virtual Reality Simulation (VRS) refers to the use of computer- generated environments that allow users to be in a fully interactive, 3D digital space. Aspect Computer-Assisted Virtual Reality Simulation Instruction (CAI) (VRS) Definition Uses computers to Uses 3D virtual deliver educational environments for content, exercises, and realistic, interactive assessments. simulations. Immersion Limited users interact Highly immersive where with content on a screen. users feel 'inside' the environment, experiencing it in 3D. Learning Focus Best for theory-based Ideal for hands-on, learning, quizzes, experiential learning, like tutorials, and drills. practicing skills or simulating real-world scenarios. Technology Requires a computer or Needs VR hardware Requirements tablet with basic (headsets, controllers) software and internet. and compatible software for full immersion. Feedback Immediate feedback Feedback can be more through quizzes or auto- dynamic, based on user scored tests. actions (like responding to mistakes in a  simulated task). Cost Generally more More expensive due to affordable to implement hardware and advanced and maintain. software requirements. IT Organization Draw a typical IT organization structure for a mid-sized company CEO ↓ IT Director - IT Help Desk -Software Development Manager - IT Security Manager Explain at least the role of three functions within the IT Department 1. IT Help Desk: They support the organization whenever IT or technical problems arise. 2. Network Manager: Manages the organization’s hardware, software, network, and servers. 3. IT Security Manager: Protects organization data and IT systems from cyber threats. -——————————————————————————————————— What IT technology you will recommend to Saud to generate reliable reports that will help him make better decisions? Bower BI = Business intelligent Definition: Refers to the technologies, strategies, and practices used to collect, integrate, and analyze data to support business decisions. Advantages: - Saves time and improves efficiency - Helps decision making - Gives a competitive advantage - Helps meet customer expectations - Improves productivity Disadvantages: - Requires training - High cost - Security risks - Requires constant maintenance - High dependence on technology -——————————————————————————————————— Expert Systems vs Artificial Intelligence Definition of Expert Systems: A type of AI program that simulates the decision-making ability of a human expert. Definition of Artificial Intelligence (AI) : A branch of computer science that aims to create machines or software capable of intelligent behavior. What are the differences between "Expert Systems and "A!"? AI is more general, Expert Systems are narrow. AI costs more than Expert Systems. 4. Advantages of AI: - Availability 24/7 - Fast decision-making - Reduces manpower - Saves costs - Increases efficiency Disadvantages of AI: - High cost / Data privacy issues - Lack of creativity - Lack of emotions in some tasks - Very complex technology - Loss of human touch -——————————————————————————————————— The Role of Robust Telecommunication Networks in Business Success 1 What is the definition of telecommunications in business To transmit the information over distance for the purpose of communication. 2 What are some of the main components of telecommunication? Internet - hardware- software - security 3. In your opinion is having conference meetings today like "ZOOM" or others are effective? Explain pros and cons? Pros Save cost- save Time – flexible- record meeting Cons High dependence on technology - Security issues - Loss of personal interaction - Zoom fatigue Advantages of telecommunications in business. -Fast communication - Save time - Improve efficiency - Collaboration improves, easier to search information - Save cost Disadvantages of telecommunications in business. - Security risks - Loss of personal interaction - Training need - High dependence on technology - Requires smooth connection
