...Teaching Computer Skills To Children with Visual Impairments: A Concept-Based Approach | [Graphic. Three color photos are standing side-by-side. In the first, a young teen-age boy is typing on a computer keyboard and smiling. In the second, a man is sitting in front of a computer reading using his refreshable braille display. In the third, three children are in a computer lab. All three have headphones. One is looking at the screen and one is listening to the output. (The face of the third child is blocked by the head of the second).

...Technology Solutions for Human Services Student Name BSHS/352 March 18, 2012 Teacher Name Technology Solutions for Human Services The human services industry is subject to several barriers that can hamper its efficiency and service. The abundance of technological advances can assist in removing these barriers. This paper will cover a discussion regarding three barriers to services, planning, funding, or empowerment in a specific aspect of human services. The purpose is to discover how community development helps address these barriers. A discussion will take place concerning how one could use applications of technology to overcome the barriers. One can transmit the processing, storing, and converting of necessary information securely and safely via technological methods. An additional benefit is the cost savings associated with using technology. To establish an information technology network for human services, organizations must establish an information infrastructure that will support their day-to-day operations. Barriers – Elderly Population The first barrier is the elderly population. Because of the rising elderly population, providing the necessary services to this population can be challenging because the mental and physical abilities decline. The elderly population consisting of individuals born between the years 1946 and 1964, also known as baby boomers, are a consistently growing population requiring human services resources (U.S. Census Bureau, 2012)....

...Electronic Commerce, 7th Edition Solutions 6-1 Electronic Commerce, 7th Edition 14188-37032 Chapter 6 Solutions Review Questions 1. In approximately 100 words, define the term “reserve price” and explain how the use of a reserve price can affect the progress and outcome of an auction. Answer: A reserve price is a minimum; even though the bid may start at a very low price, there will be no winner unless the bids reach a reserve price set by the seller. If the reserve is set too high, no one may win the auction. 2. Identify an industry (or a product within an industry) in which buyers would find reverse auctions to be a useful procurement tool. In about 300 words, explain why your chosen industry or product would be a good candidate for a reverse auction procurement process. Answer: One industry that may be considered is the construction industry where bidders are invited to offer value engineering, innovations, and alternate design ideas that could save money over the life cycle of a project. 3. In about 300 words, describe the services offered by an online auction escrow service. Name one advantage and one disadvantage of using this type of an escrow service. Answer: An escrow service will hold the buyer’s funds until the buyer has received the merchandise and is satisfied; this is primarily used for high ticket items.

...So in another article I found it examines the relationship of direct forgetting and age. Working Memory capacity predicts listwise directed forgetting in adults and children examines the role of working memory capacity (WMC) in children and adults’ listwise directed forgetting (Aslan, Bauml, and Zellner, 2010). There were two experiments: experiment 1 testing young adults around the average age of 23 and the second experiment testing children in the 1st and fourth grade (Aslan et al., 2010). The participants study two lists of times and after the first list they were either cued to forget or continue to remember the list before studying the next list (Aslan et al., 2010). When asked later to recall, forget-cued participants showed impaired recall of List 1 and improved recall of List 2 (Aslan et al., 2010). The results showed that WMC is a major determinant of developmental changes in children’s directed forgetting efficiency, which increases with age (Aslan et al.,...

...relationship between the parenthetical (in-text) references and the Reference page. * Construct a Reference list encompassing different types of source material Section I. Introduction to APA Style What is APA style? APA is an editorial style recommended by the American Psychological Association (APA) for preparing scholarly manuscripts and student research papers. It is the standard format for papers, articles, and books in the social sciences. In addition to providing standardized rules for formatting a paper (margins, line spacing, etc.), APA style provides a consistent method for citing ideas, quotations, facts, and paraphrases borrowed from other sources. This standardized format for identifying sources used in a paper makes the paper more credible and ensures that other authors are given credit for their original thoughts and ideas. Are there other styles? Just as APA style is used by teachers in the social sciences, teachers in the arts and humanities may ask you to format your paper in MLA style; a history professor may ask you to use Chicago or Turabian; a biology professor might want you to submit a paper in yet another format. There are slight differences between the formats and each has a unique set of rules. Note the differences between the APA and MLA citations given below: A book citation in APA Kasson, J. (1976). Civilizing the machine: Technology and republican values in America 1776-1900. New York: Penguin. * Author's last name and first initial...

...It is the standard for academic writing at The Hague University of Applied Sciences and includes a standard format for Research Reports and for documenting information you use from sources. Documenting Sources and Plagiarism Plagiarism refers to using someone else’s ideas or words without giving them credit or passing someone else’s work off as your own. Most of the time, this happens by accident: a student borrows some information or text from a website and forgets to properly indicate what they’ve done. There are more extreme cases, in which students deliberately copy someone else’s work, in violation of the Code of Conduct at European Studies, which insists that “we are always honest with each other and with ourselves,”1 but thankfully, these cases are rare. It is essential that, whenever you write something, you make sure that you clearly label anything you did not write yourself so that you never have to be accused of plagiarism. APA style gives you the tools to do this. In-Text Referencing Whenever you want to include ideas or text in an assignment that you did not think of yourself, you need to follow three simple steps: 1. Use a Signal Phrase Writers must introduce borrowed words or ideas by using phrases like "According to" or "As Smith said," in order to be clear about where the information came from. 2. Quote or Paraphrase Once you have a signal phrase in place,...
