Bullying

9.0K
A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development. However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly. Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is...

Electronic Distance Measuring Instruments01:30

Electronic Distance Measuring Instruments

695
Electronic Distance Measuring Instruments (EDMs) are essential tools in modern surveying, offering precise distance measurements by emitting electromagnetic signals and calculating the time required for these signals to travel to a target and return. Two primary types of signals are used in EDMs — light waves and microwaves — each suited to specific environmental and distance requirements. Light-wave-based EDMs utilize either infrared or laser light, providing high accuracy over...

Design Example: Alignment of a Road Line Using GIS

418
The alignment of a road line using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is a critical process in civil engineering, combining advanced technology with practical decision-making. This methodology begins with the collection of geospatial data, including information on land cover, geomorphology, drainage patterns, slope, and contour details. Such data is typically acquired through satellite imagery and GIS tools, offering a comprehensive understanding of the terrain.Once the data is gathered, it...

Area of Science:

  • Computer Science
  • Human-Computer Interaction
  • Accessibility Research

Background:

  • Computers are integral to modern life, yet home access and internet connectivity are not universal.
  • Public computers in libraries, schools, and community centers offer access but often exclude individuals requiring assistive technologies (AT).
  • Current public computer setups prevent users from installing or utilizing necessary AT, creating significant barriers to participation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a solution for enabling individuals who require assistive technologies (AT) to use public computers.
  • To enhance the accessibility of shared computing resources for people with disabilities.
  • To ensure equitable access to digital resources and participation in computer-mediated activities.

Main Methods:

  • Proposing a free, installable utility for public and shared computers.
  • The utility would enhance the discoverability and usability of built-in computer accessibility features.
  • The utility would enable automatic installation and configuration of user-specific AT on demand, with seamless removal post-use.

Main Results:

  • The proposed utility aims to bridge the accessibility gap on public computers.
  • It would allow AT users to access necessary tools without administrative privileges or prior installation.
  • This solution would facilitate seamless transitions for AT users across different public computer environments.

Conclusions:

  • Implementing a universal AT utility on public computers can significantly improve digital inclusion.
  • This approach addresses the critical need for accessible computing for individuals reliant on assistive technologies.
  • The proposed system promotes equal opportunity in education, employment, and civic engagement through technology.
