1.  Talent And HR Analytics: Companies need to know how their recruiting efforts and HR departments are performing.  Talent and HR analytic tools can help companies identify best practices and stay up- to-date of trends within their workforce, including hiring practices.  In particular, Talent and HR Analytics can organize and sift through data in ways that help leaders identify the challenges and opportunities their organizations face.  Today, more than ever, HR departments need analytic tools that can help them with the candidate selection process and retention process, or they will quickly lose the most innovative and tech-savvy talent prospects to their competitors and a vicious downward spiral will ensue.

Teens and Tech: Distinguishing Addiction from Habit | MindShift | KQED News

Teens and Tech: Distinguishing Addiction from Habit | MindShift | KQED News | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it
Look up from this screen right now. Take a look around. On a bus. In a cafe. Even at a stoplight. Chances are, most of the other people in your line of sight are staring at their phones or other devices. And if they don't happen to have one out, it is certainly tucked away in a pocket or bag.

But are we truly addicted to technology? And what about our kids? It's a scary question, and a big one for scientists right now. Still, while the debate rages on, some doctors and technologists are focusing on solutions.

"There is a fairly even split in the scientific community about whether 'tech addiction' is a real thing," says Dr. Michael Bishop. He runs Summerland, which he calls "a summer camp for screen overuse," for teens.

Lex Skelton's curator insight, May 13, 2019 11:50 PM
Most people consider addiction for some sort of substance abuse but addiction is everywhere. The overuse of any physical activity can become habit which then can lead to addiction. It has been proven that their is a technology dependency. Everyone uses technology and not always for productive reason. This article says that scientist are half and half for a technology addiction but I am an avid believer it is. Children now starting at young ages have screens pushed in their face which then forms a dependency on this. Think of a child who has a dying tablet or a mom that needs her phone back, the child most times will go ballistic and it is very disheartening for future generations.

The hidden dangers of technology.
Camila Ossa Castaño's curator insight, December 4, 2016 4:25 PM
Nowadays technology is a great tool that helps us in our life, in our work, in our study, etc. The internet is part of our lives and is very beneficial to us. As future teachers, we must show and tell our students all the benefits and advantages that the internet brings to our lives, but we must also make them aware that this if not used in a correct way can be dangerous for them. It is important to read and take into account these three ways to protect our students from the dangers of technology, because they often do not think about the consequences that can bring to their lives the content that they upload to the internet.  We need to make sure that our students get the most out of technology.

Enterprise Wearables will Avoid BYOD Pitfalls

Enterprise Wearables will Avoid BYOD Pitfalls | Education 2.0 & 3.0 | Scoop.it
Wearable devices made for the enterprise will offer more immediate value than BYOD programs. Here's why.

Farid Mheir's curator insight, September 10, 2014 9:06 AM

Finally the media seems to have shifted their attention from personal wearables to business-led applications of those wearables - except for yesterday's coverage of Apple iWatch. 


This article raises a good question : will you bring you wearable to work - your NFC smartphone can replace you company badge (or badges in case of consultant like me) - or will corporation issue you a company approved Google Glass or some other device? Anyone considering the introduction of wearable technology should consider this point carefully.


Say you want to introduce Google Glasses for all your field service employees so that they have access to the repair manuals and seamless hands-free communication to head-office experts for on-site support. Or you want to introduce an in-store order picking Glass solution to improve your eCommerce efficiency. Or maybe you have a use case for employee heart rate monitoring that drives a business case to reduce your insurance premiums. Short-term benefits will require you provide company issued devices - no one will buy a 1500$ Google glass today.


But in the mid-term, 2 or 3 years down the road, similar or competing devices may start to appear on the consumer market. Will you design your original solution to support BYOD or mandate the use of company devices, at the risk of alienating your employees with sub-par devices or multiple devices that are incompatible with one another?


Think about it, define a strategy and set a clear path towards it.
