...Group work is sometimes difficult to manage, but it builds valuable skills and contributes to a successful issue-oriented program. Lack of accountability of individuals within a group, off-task conversations, and students who try to dominate the discussion are just some of the potential problems surrounding group interactions. The 4-2-1 approach to cooperative learning (described on pages ii–iii of the Introduction to the Teacher’s Guide ) offers a structure that can help you reduce, though not necessarily eradicate, some of these problems. Described below are some strategies for facilitating group interaction. Teaching group interaction skills explicitly can help prevent problems. Begin by establishing classroom guidelines for group interactions. Rather than providing a list of behavioral expectations, solicit student input in developing a list of behaviors appropriate for group interaction. For example, students may suggest that it is important for group members to listen to each other, participate and share work equally, respect other people’s ideas and opinions, make sure that everyone in the group understands the task or the response to a question, speak clearly but not shout, praise outstanding contributions, etc. As a class, attempt to summarize the list into three to five rules that students agree are important. Post the rules in the classroom for easy reference and encourage students to record the rules in their own science notebooks. You may...

...Synopsis: This assignment focused on the advancements of telepresence and face-to-face interactions among businesses. This technology is growing rapidly and offers businesses a way to save money with the ability to move into global markets. Businesses with this technology are able to conduct meetings and without having to physically send all parties to a single location. The technology and software is very expensive, but over time the trickle-down effect will allow almost all companies wanting to compete globally a chance at this technology. This is truly the technology of the future. 1. What kinds of limitations do you see for users of telepresence? Is it really a substitute for face-to-face meetings? Make a list of features of face-to-face meetings. Then consider a range of business situations as an employee, from initial hire, to working with a team, to understand what your boss wants, and even a termination meeting. How would telepresence work for you in these situations? There is still not that feeling of another person being in your presence. Computer screens are great, but nothing beats an actual face-to-face meeting, in my opinion. Telepresence is going to take place whether we like it or not, the cost saving benefits alone will be the reason. Interviewing future employee teem projects, and terminations could all very well be done with this technology. The lack of personal interaction will hinder a little, but the cost of meeting another person will out way the...

...Magic in the Screen In the age of technology which we currently live, it would be unheard of to come across someone who did not own a television, a computer, and a mobile phone. With all kinds of electronics at our disposal, personal interactions have become less essential. A 2008 study conducted by Ball State University and sequent partners, found the average American spend eight and a half hours a day in front of a screen whether it be a TV, a computer or some other gadget. A paper published in “Biologist” stated in 2007 on a average a person would spend under 2.5 per day participating in face to face interactions. This means that the average person would spend a minimum of triple the amount of time staring at a screen then they would in face to face interaction. In the Poem ‘The Screen’ By Terrence Chiusano, the author provides an example of the memorizing affect screens have on people. The poem explain how during flights the passengers generally ignore the stewardess when she explains emergency procedures, except on one flight the author was on where they instead used a prerecorded version. The recorded version immediately captivated everyone’s attention. The author’s message is clearly stated as well as obviously depicted in his example, ‘the screen is magic’. His language is simple and straight forward as he does not to dress up his message to have it understood. Even in a situation where the information could potentially save the viewers life it is ignored when presented...

...Modern culture is refers to the shift in collective though that took place with the rise in scientific advancement. Modern culture gives many drawbacks rather than benefit to the people especially children. Here, I’m as Candidate A strongly believes that modern culture is ruining childhood. There are because it discourages traditional play and interaction with other children, make the children exposed so much and also being self cantered. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Firstly, it discourage traditional play & interaction with other children As we know play is very important aspect of the childhood development. In the past, a large part of childhood was interacting with other children, exploration through toys and outdoor play. The rise of technology promotes environments which render toys unappealing for their children spend the majority of their time inside, immobile and apart from other children, which is ruining important developmental aspect of childhood ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Yes that true but don’t forget that Modern culture will make the children exposed too much. As example, even though they have technology and already have been blocked by their parents, they still can be exposed through Music. As we know, nowadays kids very influenced by the pop stars and try to do what their favourite pop star but unfortunately, music currently...

...influenced the effectiveness of both interactions, the one to one and the group communication. The main five factors were lighting, seating, temperature, space between each other and the camera position. Lighting In both interactions the lighting was great, it wasn’t too bright or too dull. I know this because I could see all my colleagues whilst taking part in both interactions, I could see their body language, facial expressions and posture all clearly because the lighting was on point. If the lighting was too bright then it could have affected my eyesight, I wouldn’t be able to see my colleagues which would have made it hard for me to make eye contact and to communicate with them effectively. If the lighting was to bright then it would have partly blinded me which would have made me feel uncomfortable and the interaction wouldn’t have taken place as quickly and as effectively as it did. It is very important that the studio rooms lighting wasn’t also dull, this would affected my self-esteem and my interaction wouldn’t have gotten completed as effectively as it did. Again, the lighting was excellent and it was set to a standard limit which gained my confidence whilst performing in both interactions. Seating The seating is also important when it comes to performing. If the seating was too rough then it would have made me feel uncomfortable, this would have made my interaction less effective because I wouldn’t fully concentrate on the interaction, instead I would have been busy...

...What causes internet users to take on an Avatar An avatar is a representation of one's self online. When utilizing the world wide web many persons choose to use an avatar instead of presenting their authentic selves. They are often used in online video games and on various sites that require some sort of user representation. There are many reasons for using avatars, these range from security and privacy to insecurity and a medium of escape. Avatars are a means of expression for some people, They allow for users to portray themselves the way they view or in some cases would like to view themselves. Avatars are often given a bad name and in some cases are frowned upon. Some argue that they are a misrepresentation of self and are a dangerous deception to others who assume the avatar to be a true representation of its user. Avatars act as front line security especially in the online gaming world. They make it safe for people to interact with each other with minimal risk of security breeches. It can be argued that the use avatars are not a full proof protection plan from online predators but they help is masking true identity. This, however, can be a double edged sword since the identities of other users are masked as well. When it comes the privacy avatars play a vital role, especially for younger internet users. As Sherry Turkle pointed out younger internet users are willing to share personal information online with no safeguards. With the use of avatars there is a lesser...

...daily interactions with people, and can affect our conversations that we have with one another. For this assignment I chose to work with my roommate, Yale Mendelson, to test out the different lengths of distance between each other to carry out a conversation. The three different distances that I chose was down the hall from each other (approximately 8 feet), face to face (approximately 1.5 feet), and face to face with less than a half of foot between our faces. All three of these distances brought about different reactions between the two of us and showed differences in conversation at each distance. The first distance was the furthest, we began our conversation, I had to speak very loudly, almost a yell, to begin our interaction. I could tell right away that Yale was uncomfortable with this because he is not very outgoing and we were bringing some attention to ourselves. The hall way was not empty so as we were talking back and forth to each other I noticed that we both had to use hand gestures and certain body language cues to help the other realize what they were saying. This setting was definitely difficult for us to have a normal, personal conversation. This distance left for a very broad interaction that was not able to ever become very personal. The next distance that we used to interact with each other was the face to face at about 1 to 2 feet apart. For this distance, I could tell right away that both of us were much more comfortable. Our interaction went on...

...social reasoning. The purpose of the study was to examine the association between affective empathy, cognitive empathy, and gender on cyber bullying among adolescents. Participants were 396 adolescents from Singapore with age ranging from 12 to 18 years. Adolescents responded to a survey with scales measuring both affective and cognitive empathy, and cyber bullying behavior. A three-step hierarchical multiple regression analysis was used with cyber bullying scores as the dependent variable. Gender was dummy coded and both affective and cognitive empathy were centered using the sample mean prior to creating interaction terms and entering them into the regression equations. The testing, probing and interpretation of interaction effects followed established statistical procedures. Results from hierarchical multiple regression analysis indicated a significant three-way interaction. At low affective empathy, both boys and girls who also had low cognitive empathy had higher scores on cyber bullying...

...would be a tactile ‘interactive’ experience, and advertising which evokes a personal/emotional response could be considered low-level ‘interaction’. Nor is all digital media ‘interactive marketing’. Videos, web sites, and motion graphics fall in the ‘maybe’ category, since they can evoke a personal/emotional response, but that can be subjective. An example of a piece which would fall in the personal/emotional response category is: http://tinyurl.com/yays6h4 The tactile interactive marketing experience can run the gamut from simple rollover-style interaction to more engaging experiences which involve the end user more directly and allow them to explore at their own pace. Simple rollover interactions, done well, can be very engaging and generally have a higher rate of information retention than callouts treated in the same manner -- of course, done badly, they can frustrate users by hiding simple information that should have been available from the start. A sample of a rollover-style piece is: http://tinyurl.com/yaz38k7 More advanced interactions can create a relationship between the user and the information they’re consuming which simply isn’t accessible through traditional marketing. These pieces can transcend the traditional concept of marketing into the realms of entertainment and/or education. A sample of more advanced interaction is: http://tinyurl.com/yax8mh9 As others have stated in their responses,...

...Lesnick English 101 7/28/14 Bye TV In society today, many people’s eyes are glued to the television. It is constantly within the reach of the general public. Throughout the world, television has not only become an important part of our everyday lives, but especially the media that is apart of it. Unfortunately, television isn’t always used in a way by which people receive the best possible benefits. Television does allow for cultural experiences amongst each other to be shared, and it features news and current events which allow for people to be more aware of other cultures. However, although there are benefits to watching television in moderation, people shouldn’t watch too much television because it destroys social interaction and negatively impacts mental development. Leiusure time is defined as time that is spent away from work, chores, business, or education. People over the age of two today often spend, “more than 34 hours a week watching live television plus another three to six hours watching taped programs” (Hinckley). With 168 hours being in a week, people are spending more than 20% of their time watching television. Rather then spending time watching a screen, that time should be spent socially interacting with people within our communities. Often times, we read about crimes happening in our neighborhoods and cities when we had no clue what was going on. A prime example of this is my fifteen year old brother who spends his whole life looking at...

...three times a week. Online students are required to participate in discussion boards with other students, with a minimum posting participation of eight times a week. Therefore, online students have a wider perspective of opinions including people that may struggle compared to traditional environment. Online students must be able to manage their time for participation and also to continue with full time jobs and family duties. There are advantages and disadvantages to considering an online education that will be discussed.
