Next New

I believe virtual reality technology use will continue to increase in the future and new ways of using this media will be invented. Recently, I started teaching my cousin how to drive, and honestly, it is very nerve-racking. As VR reality usage increases, I believe it can be used as a way of teaching students drivers how to drive, park, and show them different scenarios before they start practicing in real life. Maybe this can be a course before they take their license exam to ensure that they are prepared.

    Hi Maria,
    I really like your idea of a new way to learn how to drive. As technology has evolved, we should use it wisely in order to improve our learning. It is also an interesting idea as it would help many young people to learn faster and better, as they would certainly be more committed to "play a virtual game".

    I love how through your frustration comes a great idea. The Air force and Nasa teach pilots through virtual reality how to fly before going into combat and space. I think a virtual driving center would be a good look. It would also make the streets a little safer. Thank you for your post I enjoyed it.

Privacy

Privacy and confidentiality issues have become even greater with new media. New media has allowed for information to be more easily accessible and shared with people. Your friend can be on the other side of the world and that person would be able to see your posts online.

By agreeing, some of these companies can gather different data and sell your information. This is where confidentiality and privacy concerns come into play. According to the article, "The Wild West of Privacy" by Joe Nocera, big data brokers such as Acxiom, have developed tools that allow them to gather big amounts of data about ourselves and then sell it to companies that are interested in learning anything from out habit to our health and finances. When using new media, keeping one's privacy and confidentiality is ...

The Effects of Social Media on Education: Weighting the Impacts

I chose to do my paper on the impacts of social media on education. Over the years social media has become bigger and bigger. With most generations using social media platforms, it can be said that it has affected our daily lives to a great extent. With education being one of the most important aspects of youth, I think it is important to discuss how social networks are impacting students and their education, and how it will continue to do so. My analyses will focus on giving both negative and positive aspects of social networks on students and how this impacts their educational setting. For example, social media has become a great distraction to students, which in some circumstances, causes their performance to decline. I plan to include some studies to support this analysis. On the other hand, social media networks encourage students to engage with each other and share their creativity. In addition, I would also like to touch on the challenges of students using social media such as p...
