Week 9
In today’s lecture the information that was covered was about communications. The way communication is done today is so different than it has been due to information and communication technology. Information and communication can be between individuals, businesses and other organizations. Communication takes place between different networks. There are four types of communications place dependant, place independent, synchronous and asynchronous. Some examples of information and communication technology include: mobile phones, ipods, email and laptops.
Tutorial
Task 1
In Google I search in groups Egyptology as this interests me.
When searching through the site I found that a lot of the information and people asking questions wanting answers. I found that people responded to these answers and helped them out. They also provided help and information that was just new and made me want to read it. I spend about 1 hour just looking through the site as I found it so interesting.
Task 2
I looked at the podcast sight from itunes, as I believe this has some very good free casts. I listened to two these were Hamish and Andy and summer heights high. I found these to be funny and worth listening to. Students that use podcasts could find it good for the fact that they can listen to the information over and over again making it easy to remember. Also they would be able to listen to information if they missed a lecture or tutorial at university making it easy for them to catch up. Also studying for exams could be easier you could go for a walk and listen to your study information.
