In fact, here’s a graph on what the predicted prospects of various marketing careers look like: (Pretty impressive right?) However, it is also true that the digital marketing domain is still relatively new. As such, formal qualifications to get into this field are neither fixed nor predictable. But this is often a blessing in disguise as the onus is on skills rather than a list of qualifications. Despite the lack of fixed qualifications to define this internet marketing domain, though, certain educational...

...Debate Summary Amanda Missick, Karla Castillo, Kimberly Archuleta, and Kimberly Arzate BCOM 275 April 2, 2015 John Kungis Debate Summary Throughout the debate we chose to discuss the Chris Kyle murder case where Eddie Routh was convicted for the brutal murder of Chris Kyle, former Navy Seal, and his comrade Chad Littlefield. As the debate summary we decided to go with the pro side of the argument, which includes; Eddie Routh's history of mental disorders, how he fled the scene, and the sentence given to him for his murder charge. Not only did this topic make us have different opinions amongst each other, but made us open our minds to different views. Even though as a team we had our disagreements and different believes on the topic, we came together for the final decision of the debate. We believed that the murder trial of Chris Kyle was justly sentenced. Even though Eddie was facing a low point in his life we believe his alcohol abuse, violent behavior and strange conduct were contributing factors that led to his mental state. Living in a city with one of the biggest military bases in the country, we all in different ways are related to military personnel. Some of us personally know veterans with PTSD. It was discussed during our meetings that it normally takes more than a shooting range to trigger someone to relive those experiences that only veterans have experienced. We are devastated that this incident turned out the way it did, ending the life of not only the...

...What do you see as some of the pros and cons of direct practice in a digital world? The biggest con I see with social work in a digital world is not being able to meet with the person face to face in the same room. Skyping or talking over the internet fulfills a need; however, I still find it impressionable. Another con I see is social media. With everyone having access to a social media account, it is easy to search for and find someone. I think this could lead to boundaries being crossed if the therapist and client become social media “friends.” A pro in accessing practice in a digital world is having access to it 24/7. If a client is in need of some form of therapy, they have access to various website and face to face interaction with another....

...Cellular and Pure Fixed Land Lines are and what the pros and cons for both to come to solution of which out does the other. Purely fixed lines have been on around for years transmuting signals via a network of cables, which are either buried or suspended along poles. Fixed lines are in every home and building today so everyone has the ability to have telephone and data service. Although having fixed land lines are very much reliable it still requires data and modem. To receive or transmit data over the fixed line a modem is needed on each end of the line. The modem takes the digital information and turns it into tones that have been specifically selected for the transmission over the telephone network. The modem on the other end is responsible for turning the tones back into the digital data. Modems transmit data over a telephone network that is designed for voice. DSL utilizes the existing analog phone line so no need for new equipment other than modems that can convert the digital data into high-frequency tones along with a filter at the subscribers end to keep the DSL transmission from being heard on the telephone. The conventional modem operated at the frequency range of 300 to 3,000 Hz but a DSL modem will need to operate a higher frequency range which will allow for a much higher data rate. The data rate was capped at 56,000 bps with the conventional modem but with the DSL modem the data rate is based on several physical characteristics. One of the major physical characteristics...

As this paper continues we will be introduced to Luis who is a new brand manager for the Dinty Moore Beef Stew line. Luis Arroyo has been assigned a project to develop a new advertisement campaign for the entire line of the beef stew line of products.

...Is Digital Technology Harming Our Students? Barbara Rivera AIU Online Abstract In a society so technologically developed with users that range from children through old age rises a debate on whether technology is helpful to students in school. Surveys have shown that students spend numerous hours focusing on digital devices to communicate and access social media. With the over use of digital technology comes negative effects that hinder a student’s ability to grasp and retain knowledge. Furthermore, there is evidence that they also suffer from physical effects. Some argue that the ease of access of information is beneficial to the students, but studies show that student don’t utilize digital media appropriately. Is Digital Technology Harming Our Students? In today’s fast pace moving society people enjoy the convenience of digital technology all around them. From wireless laptops at home to tablets and smartphones on the go people have access to instant information and the ability to connect instantly through social media and messaging. As society moves forward in an ever-changing and evolving world of technology there raises questions to the impact technology has in different settings (i.e. school, work, and home). There have been many debates on the issue of whether technology is helpful or a hindrance in schools. While there are some pros to technology in the classroom, one has to look at the cons closely as society in general is becoming overwhelmingly dependent on...

...DJ Nolff Literacy Of Life 9/24/12 The literacy of life in my opinion the most important story for one to pass on to others, not jus tin terms of reading or to draw conclusions to deeper and more detailed meaning, but to learn and understand about the lessons we encounter in everyday life that we at most times look past or ignore. I can see a time in my life living in a small town called Hastings Michigan when I was forced to do something that I would have never imagined doing. I was there my entire life and my parents were going to, with such short notice tell me we were moving to Minnesota. I loved where I Lived, I loved my friends and family being so close, sports, everything where I currently was had enough to offer for me. When they told me this I felt like everything I ever cared for was being taken away from me and that things were falling apart right before my eyes. There were many clues that my parents had said weeks and months prior to the news but I was so caught up in my own little world, too young and immature to even have noticed them. They would ask me little questions all the time like how would I feel about being far away from home? Do I like the Vikings? All kinds of questions relating to Minnesota but I never even thought more about them, I thought they were just questions. I was put in a situation to say goodbye to all the people who ever helped me make it as far as I was at the time. Friends, family, teachers, coaches everybody. I was so confused...

...DISPLAY BOARD ABSTRACT Cockroaches are a constant threat to humans; they spread diseases and are unsanitary. This cockroach problem is commonly addressed through the use of toxic pesticides, but the unfortunate truth is that these pesticides can also be harmful to humans and the environment. The researchers conducted a study to create a toxic-free cockroach killer using Eucalyptus Oil and Chili Peppers as ingredients. The researchers determined the most effective concentration of ingredients by performing a Preliminary Test. From the test they discovered that the concentration with the higher amount of Eucalyptus oil is most effective in killing cockroaches. They proceeded to conduct further experiments to compare the Formulated Cockroach Killer from a known Commercial Pesticide. 5 trials were performed, 10 cockroaches were tested with the Commercial Pesticide and another 10 for the Formulated Cockroach Killer. The Commercial Pesticide killed a higher quantity of cockroaches than the Formulated one. Data were collected and a T-test was performed. The T-test proved that the difference is statistically significant. Although the Commercial Pesticide was more effective, the Formulated Cockroach Killer was still able to kill cockroaches without the use of Toxic ingredients. Background Of The Study Cockroaches have adapted to survive in many environments. Once cockroaches invade your home, they can expose you to several kinds of diseases. The use of toxic pesticides to manage pest...

...You can optimize and digitalize your business cards, so you can reach people all over the United States or more. With social networking sites and various tools available to you in this digital world, there’s no excuse not to connect with others and extend your network. Two young men, Axel Hansen and Jonah Varon, came up with the initial idea for Newsle during finals their freshman year. They imagined an internet where every page was tagged with the real people in it, so they could quickly see what their friends had done online. Since this is the first time news has been organized around people, there’s a huge variety of potential applications that can be built on their technology and the two founders are just getting started. (Schiff, 2010) Pros and cons of a digital media has affected modern day society. It has enabled us as society to learn more, easier, and faster. It has allowed us to connect with people that we couldn’t even imagine in doing so 10 or 15 years ago. It has made work easier and faster even, and more efficiently. One of the things that has been bad about it, it’s now easier to steal information and call it yours (plagiarism). With the vast information that is out there, even though some of it is false and isn’t accurate and misleading (Walter, 2013). Digital media gives historians the ability to exponentially expand storage space for object or archival research. This expanded space also allows archives and museums share collections not on display...

She realized “digitizing documents using the latest technology, tagging them with easy-to-read labels, and linking them to search engines for easy retrieval and widespread use” will meet customers’ wants/needs while also preserving images and data and earning revenue. The strategy of the model it to provide digitizing services to companies in exchange for rights to market the content on the internet, receive merchandising rights, and also promotion of Artemis Images ULR with each partner. While Artemis Images provides a meaningful service of preserving the company’s valuable media and data, the get to sell the images to customers, and link the images to key words in search engines. The opportunity for Chris to start her own company was because she discovered that the photo archives were obtaining a ton of requests from fans and customers but they were unable to fill those requests to the full potential. Chris knew how to reach the potential. Chris also held the opportunity because she understood the value for an organization to have its inventory, pictures, and information digitalized and saved forever and she understood the cost of scanning and digitalizing this media. Artemis Images will be able to make profit off of the unrealized value of the images that is kept hidden by companies and consumers. Chris was able...

Even now, a lot of digital information beyond imagination is being accumulated all over the world. Not only the amount of information is increasing, but the production rate of one is also getting speedy. This explosion of information has some reasons. The main reason is technology development. It can actualize things which were impossible in the past. The digital technology changes a lot of information into digitization. Also, many people utilize them with the powerful mean digital device. Men communicating by information contributed to increase the amount of information. Humans who escaped from illiteracy and economic hardship have generated many kinds of information, which are utilized in several fields such as politics, economy, law, culture, science, and so on. The production rate of information is faster than the speed of technology development. Though the digital devices handling the information are getting various, storage space is not enough to store the increased information. Sea is not calm, but it has that big waves. Likewise, lots of information comes to our life. It is important to judge what information is...

Will knows that he has free access to books no longer under copyright protection, and he figures he can pay a royalty fee of $5 per title for copyrighted books that will greatly expand his catalog. So far, he has limited himself to English-language books but is working on a language translation option as well. To date, Will’s technical skills outpace his business acumen. He is struggling with some basic decisions. He has been working on his invention as a garage operation for the last few years and has missed many of his daughter’s soccer games while working at High Tech Digital Industries to keep his family comfortable on his $200,000 annual salary and benefits package. Will may eventually have to decide whether to devote most of his time to his invention. Moreover, he is not sure how to determine all the applications for his technology, who would want it, how it would be delivered to customers, how many books would be bought at what price, and so forth. Even after he has secured the rights to copyrighted material, he needs some help acquiring the books he wants to digitally transform and scanning them into his digitizer. It is not difficult to train others to do this, but the...
