Technology can actually be a double-edged sword. Its advantages are indisputable; however, its disadvantages simultaneously deteriorate the whole picture. Arguments have been raised from both advocates and their opponents for decades, and it will not presently come to a consensus. In the three articles “Someone to Watch Over Me (on a Google Map)” by Theodora Stites, “Hell is Other iPods: The Aural Loneliness of the Long-Distance Shuffler” by Caspar Melville, and “Caught in the Web: More People…

Structuring Virtual Teams Introduction Two students, Steven Helmke and Keisha Holmes, are assigned to form a team that will create tips for a game called Virtual Teams: 101 Tips. This paper will examine the process used to form the virtual team, the leadership structure we employ and the work design we chose. The paper will also provide an evaluation of the critical process in which the team utilized to create or virtual team structure. Team Name We began our process by naming our team. While…

Personally experiencing a full up-front version of virtual reality with you immersed inside as the star player, is the 'in-thing' in modern digital technology right now. Immersing yourself in 3-D 'what if' scenarios, ideally of your own creation - the early versions of the ultimate in Star Trek holodeck simulations - is the name of the virtual reality game. Of course you already experience virtual reality 24/7/52. Anything and everything you experience is courtesy of your sensory apparatus, your…

4 Jazz Team Server JTS is a java based web application which runs on the application servers such as Apache Tomcat or IBM WebSphere application server. JTS provides the foundational services that enable a group of applications to work together as a single logical server. After user install JTS and applications such as CCM, RM, and QM. When server setup wizard run by the user it registers the installed applications with Jazz Team server. Applications that are registered with JTS can communicate…

During our field trip to the simulation lab, I was very surprised as to what it looked like. I have always wondered what was behind those doors and I was very excited to know that I was going to find out. The first place we saw was the occupational therapy room which was set up just like a house. There, they can practice their skills that they learn in the classroom and apply them in a simulated setting. The simulation can help patients do day to day tasks such as sitting down and getting up…

concept similar to computer ghosting; it means people are not physically present, but they are present through the use of the internet and social networks on their computers and cell phones. People’s social networks have evolved into networks of virtual people, as they communicate through social media to share what’s happening in their life and even to socialize offline. The networks…

communication may be down (Kankanhalli, Tan & Wei, 2007; Ebrahim, Ahmed & Taha, 2009; Siebdrat, Hoegl & Ernst, 2009) Performance Issue Research has found that (Hoegl and Proserpio, 2004) working remotely negatively affects performance and a global virtual team are less effective to effectively function as compared to traditional teams and…

to improve motor and cognitive skills in older adults thereby reducing fall risk. Virtual reality (VR) components connected to treadmills also provide a more stimulating and enjoyable workout. Subjects for this trial were randomly assigned adults aged 60 to 90, with a high risk of falling. After six months of treadmill training, fall incident rate was significantly lower…

Our modern world’s virtual connectivity can have subtle, but arduous effects on society as a whole and for each individual. While these technologies are relatively new compared to humankind’s grand history, each year, more research is being conducted and released on the impacts that social media, video games, and virtual simulations have on the youth. All this research seems to have one main thing in common which is that even though technology does have obvious benefits, no one can deny the fact…
