A solution to this would be to provide students with tables with built-in power outlets and LCD screens so that students may stay connected and continuously monitor their progress when it comes to the classroom game.
While this is a great idea, before any of it can become a reality, we're going to need to work on getting enough funding so schools can actually afford it.
At the same time, since digital technology and connectivity are fundamental aspects of gamified learning, students also have the opportunity to expand their 21st-century information, media, and technology literacy skills.
This is great because a well rounded knowledge of technology is extremely important to be successful i today's world.
The risk-free nature of classroom gamification frees students from the threatening anxiety of failure, which encourages students to take risks, work together and take control of their education
I think this is a great concept. I know a ton of my peers in high school had extreme anxiety about performance brought on by pressure from parents and teachers.
That makes sense. And since ProPublica’s report, Facebook has started excluding certain types of ads, such as those for housing, credit, and employment, from using ethnic-affinity targeting.
It's fascinating how far back Facebook screwing up goes. Not that it's uncommon (large companies aren't well known for being scrupulous) but since they're a social media company, so much of what they do wrong goes public, and yet here we are today, in another situation where the website is on a questionable side of the law.
After all, if women interested in technology don’t exist, how could employers hire them?
This is certainly an unfortunate stereotype that still persists in our society, but it's crazy to think something that's supposed to be unbiased (like an algorithm) could end up perpetuating it.
In January of that year, the search giant released a new privacy policy that, for the first time, sought to aggregate your usage data from across its array of products—including Google Search, Gmail, Google Calendar, YouTube, and others—into a single profile.
It's crazy to think this was as recently as five years ago. It feels like websites have been doing this forever.
