The contributions presented here offer theoretical and methodological frameworks for understanding age-based digital inequalities, participation, digital design and socio-gerontechnology. They include ethical and practical reflections on the design and evaluation of emerging technologies for older people, as well as guidelines for ethical, participatory, professional and cross-disciplinary research and practice. In addition, they feature state-of-the-art, international empirical research on communication technologies, games, assistive technology and social media. As the first truly multidisciplinary book on technology use among ageing demographics, and intended for students, researchers, applied researchers, practitioners and professionals in a variety of fields, it will provide these readers with insights, guidelines and paradigms for practice that transcend specific technologies, and lay the groundwork for future research and new directions in innovation.
Download or read book Information Technology written by Ramesh Chandra and published by Gyan Publishing House. This book was released on 2003-08 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many developing countries are in a good position to exploit the opportunities of the technology revolution and advance human development. The information and communication technologies provide new resources and material for expanding education. The net-based education can help access to lived experience, as well as dramatise and concretize basic historical facts and knowledge. In fact the second half of the twentieth century has witnessed the global phenomenon of an information explosion. The development of different electronic technologies has made it possible for millions of people to have fast access to huge information resources stored in different places on the planet, to communicate with each other and to handle information presented in several forms. Today computers and other electronic devices increasingly communicate and interact directly with other devices over a variety of networks such as the internet.
Download or read book The Digital Challenge written by Shirin Madon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2003. Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are increasingly being recognized as vital to the economic growth and global inclusion and participation of developing countries. This book brings together both academics and practitioners to provide a comprehensive and insightful overview of ICT and development around the world. It examines the role of IT in providing new economic and industrial opportunities, in increasing access to global information and communication, in assisting small cultural and ethnic groups to overcome disadvantages of physical distance and in catalysing initiatives towards democratic decentralization and empowerment of citizens. It also critically appraises major problems such as inappropriate focus and resource allocation, and of missed opportunities. By combining comparative case studies from Africa, South and East Asia, South America and Eastern Europe with theoretical analysis, this volume synthesizes a range of issues related to the evident tensions that exist for developing countries as they try to balance global and local priorities through the adoption and use of ICTs.
