Educational Technology.

Educational technology, especially computers and computer-related peripherals, have grown tremendously and have permeated all areas of our lives. It is incomprehensible that anyone today would argue that banks, hospitals, or any industry should use less technology. Most young people cannot understand arguments that schools should limit technology use. For them, use of the Internet, for example, plays a major role in their relationships with their friends, their families, and their schools. Teens and their parents generally think use of the Internet enhances the social life and academic work of teenagers:


From the beginning of the computer age, educational researchers and practitioners have told us that for technology use to be successful in our schools it needed to be closely tied to school reform. Glennan and Melmed (1995) wrote: "Technology without reform is likely to have little value: widespread reform without technology is probably impossible". The unavoidable conclusion is that successful improvement of technology, science, and mathematics education is of high importance to our future.

An Inspirational quotation by Chad Sansing.

We can’t go back to the days of closed classroom doors and scatter ourselves to the wind on eccentric pedagogical whims.  However, we can leverage our strengths to create and scale-up classrooms with new approaches to teaching and learning that are authentic to students and politically viable to our leaders.  We can radically differentiate what we do to help students and ourselves, and then regroup in teams, schools, and divisions organized on principles more authentic, lasting, and human than standardized-test results.  Let’s get to the future and ask ourselves how we will organize education when everyone meets every standard.  And if we don’t think that’s possible, again, let’s do something different now to make our students the innovators, entreprenuers, and citizens we all want them to be. - Chad Sansing -

Honda Robotic Legs.

Offering up a completely different take on cutting-edge technology contributing to the advancement of human mobility assistance, Japanese car manufacturing titan Honda has revealed a wearable solution that users ride while walking.
Appearing much like a bicycle seat standing atop a futuristic pair of oddly angled mechanical legs, the experimental assisted-walking gadget attaches to the user’s shoes and provides support through the seat for both body weight and joint stress reduction.
Unveiled this past Friday, Tokyo-based Honda Motor Company sees the gadget as being potentially viable for workers on its car-making production lines, or by workers at a wide variety of other manufacturing facilities.
Case in point, to demonstrate the assisted-walking technology in action, Honda showcased a video of employees wearing and walking the contraption in order to navigate a production line and even peer beneath cars.
Capable of helping its wearer to walk up stairs and comfortably remain in crouched positions, Honda engineer Jun Ashihara also claimed the device will be useful for people who stand all day and also those who are constantly mobile or making deliveries.
“This should be as easy to use as a bicycle,” said Ashihara in an AP report. “It reduces stress, and you should feel less tired.”
The assisted-walking technology comes complete with an on-board computer, motor, gears, a battery, and embedded sensors designed to respond to the wearer’s movements by pushing upward on steps to deliver powered momentum. When squatting, the device similarly pushes against the wearer’s bottom in order to provide a platform of stability.
According to Honda, it plans to gather valuable user feedback by introducing prototype testing onto one of its production lines before the end of November. Pricing and full commercial availability has not yet been confirmed.
Beyond the obvious benefits associated with assisted-walking technology in fabrication facilities, Lindsay Scott of Help the Aged commented that Honda’s vision appears to be “a hugely exciting development.”
“The Japanese are at the forefront of this kind of technology as Japan has one of the most rapidly ageing societies in the world and it'll be fascinating to see how this develops,” she said to The Scotsman.

Security-Enhanced Personalized Stamp

Manufacturer: Mitsubishi Pencil

Westerners usually sign contracts or other important documents in ink, but Japanese traditionally prefer an engraved stamp called a hanko. One concern, though, is that the stamped signature, usually the owner's name, can be easily forged. Mitsubishi Pencil's Dial Bank Seal alleviates the risk of fraud by adding a two-digit dial that creates a series of marks around the printed name, making it difficult for an unauthorized person to copy someone's stamp. It also wards against theft by requiring a code to be entered before use.

Nespresso incar coffee machine concept

Nespresso invited design students from all over Europe to consider how coffee rituals of today might evolve and fit into future lifestyles, and announced the winners of their Design Contest last week at the Milan furniture fair. The gadget to the left is the second place winner, the InCar coffee machine, designed by Thijs van Cuyk and Lavrans Laading of the Netherlands.
As you might guess from its name, the InCar is a Nespresso machine meant to be installed into the center console of a car, that can double as an armrest when you aren’t using it to make lattes. We’re not sure this is something we’d particularly want in our own car (a cold soda dispenser would be more to our liking), and we certainly wouldn’t trust New York City cab drivers to keep in-car coffee machines clean, but your mileage may vary.

Ricardo self-weighing luggage

Nothing is more of a pain-in-the-ass than dealing with airports and luggage. Checking luggage, losing luggage, regulations, fees, etc. can all make your relaxing vacation turn into a stressful nightmare. Ricardo has developed luggage that can solve one of the blunders. This line, named "The Solutions" offers a digital scale that is built into the luggage. It helps keep you avoid those overweight-luggage penalties. The luggage is available in 25-inch and 28-inch size and can be purchased in maul teal, crushed berry, or black.

Solar Motorbike

This solar powered motorbike design by SunRed won a prize at the Barcelona Motor Show for its innovative technology. It’s a concept at the moment, but the company will be making a prototype soon.
It’s not a direct solar-power machine; the panels top up batteries when parked. This is because the panels fold up to give a large surface area (over 3 square metres), but fold down out of the way when the bike is on the go. Leave it in the sun, and when you get back to it you can fold up the panels and be on your way.
They claim that it will have a range of 13 miles, and should reach 30mph. For city journeys this is perfect, not many people commute further than that in urban areas, and you should be able to charge up during the day anyway. The motor sits directly on the rear axle, so not much energy is wasted in the drive train, and is brushless to reduce friction.

Innovation In Teaching and Learning In The Classroom.

Teachers nowadays are brainstorming their mind to think of ways for their students to learn more effectively in the classroom. The old kind of teaching method, which is the teachers talk in front of the students without any help of the technology or prop, is no more useful. The students may get bored and so they have the excuse for not paying attention in the class because the teachers remain using the dull teaching method. Students nowadays seem to be dependent. Thus, the teachers have to be innovative in helping the students in classroom learning. However, what kind of teaching methods are useful in attracting the students to participate in the classroom? Below i'll list out some of the ways that i think can help in improving the classroom learning.


1. Teachers should make use of the technology, the computers when dealing with classroom learning. Computers with audio and visual effect, are more likely to attract the students' interest in learning, especially for the primary school students.


2. Many students dislike English lesson in school, especially when it comes to literature class. Many of them think that the literature class is boring. This is because the teachers are not doing good enough in their work. They should make prop or do some dramatizing in the class, or perhaps a group of students singing out the poems, so that the students will not feel dull in the class.


3. In the classroom, teachers can use a big screen to replace the blackboard. Perhaps a touch screen can attract the interest of the student. Teachers can do everything with the touch screen during their teaching process, for example showing videos or documentaries, PowerPoint, or even solving science and mathematics questions.
