Education and Learning in the Digital Age 0 0 03 1Technology- 2 Collaboration and Enhanced Access to Communication Learning Resources Technology provides The integration of digital Digital communication unprecedented access to tools in education, such tools foster a wealth of educational as online learning collaboration among resources, including platforms and interactive students and educators, online courses, e-books, software, facilitates allowing for real-time and research databases, personalized learning feedback, group enabling learners from experiences that cater to projects across various backgrounds to diverse learning styles distances, and the pursue knowledge and and paces, enhancing sharing of ideas, which skills that were student engagement and enriches the learning previously inaccessible. comprehension. environment and promotes critical thinking. Television: A Window to the World 1 2 3 Nipkow's Electric Telescope Cathode Ray Tube Television Modern Television Paul Gotlieb Nipkow, a German In 1907, Alan Archibald Campbell- Inspired by these early inventions, student, invented the "electric Swinton and Boris Rosing combined scientists continued to improve telescope" in the late 1800s. This the cathode ray tube with a television technology, leading to device used a rotating metal disk to mechanical scanner system, the modern television sets we have send images through wires. creating a new television system. today. Mobile Phones: Connecting the World First Mobile Phone Call On April 3, 1973, Martin Cooper, a Motorola engineer, made the world's first mobile phone call, weighing 1.1 kilograms and offering 30 minutes of talk time and it tooks 10hrs to charge. Commercial Mobile Phones In 1983, Motorola released the DynaTAC 8000X(Goodwin, 2016), the first commercial mobile phone available to the public. Smartphones The evolution of mobile phones continued, leading to the development of smartphones with advanced features like internet access, cameras, and various applications. Computers and Laptops: Transforming Information Analytical Engine Computer Generations Laptops Charles Babbage, an English Computers have evolved The desire for portability led to mathematics professor, through three generations, the development of laptops, designed the Analytical Engine each offering improvements starting with the Osborne 1 in in the nineteenth century, and advancements over the 1981. Today, various designs which served as the foundation previous one. and models are available. for modern computers. Section 3 The Challenges of Technological Advancement Ethical Dilemmas of Technological Advancements Laziness and Unhealthiness Excessive use of technological devices can lead to sedentary lifestyles, unhealthy eating habits, and social isolation. Moral Dilemmas Easy access to the internet and various content raises concerns about children's exposure to inappropriate material and its potential impact on their development. Ethics of Technology The need for ethical guidelines in technology use is crucial to prevent abuse and ensure responsible development and utilization. The Impact of Automation on Employment 0 1 Job Displacement Risks Emergence of New Roles Economic Inequality Concerns Automation technologies, such as The impact of automation on While automation may eliminate robotics and artificial intelligence, employment can exacerbate certain jobs, it also creates new are increasingly capable of economic inequality, as lower- roles that require advanced skills in performing tasks traditionally done skilled workers face greater job loss technology management, data by humans, leading to significant risks while higher-skilled workers analysis, and system maintenance, job displacement in sectors like benefit from increased productivity necessitating a shift in workforce manufacturing, retail, and and higher wages, highlighting the training and education. customer service. need for equitable policy responses. Section 4 The Future of Technology and Humanity Robotics: The Future of Automation Service Robots Service robots perform tasks to assist humans in their daily lives, ranging from domestic chores to professional applications. Personal Service Robots Used for non-commercial tasks, these robots assist individuals with tasks like cleaning, mobility, and pet care. Professional Service Robots Used for commercial tasks, these robots perform duties like cleaning public spaces, delivering items, and assisting in healthcare. DESIRE Project The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research sponsored the DESIRE project, focusing on developing service robots for everyday use. Asimov's Laws of Robotics Isaac Asimov formulated three laws of robotics in the 1940s, addressing the ethical implications of robots. These laws are designed to ensure the safety and well-being of humans. Thank You Presenter: Group 4 from BSIT-3D
