AbstractThe US medical schools are characterized by a significant progress in the usage of information and communication technologies for professional purposes and communication skills development. This advance was influenced by a sequence of social, academic, technological and financial conditions, namely: permanent research in the branch of modernization of higher medical education; application of a student-centered approach in education and patient-centered approach in clinical practice; physician-patient interaction skills development and their evaluation during clerkships; implementation of the subjects aimed at communication training into the undergraduate curricula; technological progress and implementation of ICTs in undergraduate clinical and communication training of future doctors. A profound analysis of the state of ICT implementation for professional communication skills development in Ukraine and the USA has showed hardly any common features. Thus, the process of ICTs application is advanced in medical schools of the USA and still challenging in Ukraine. In the USA communication training involves mainly virtual patients and in our country this training is more theoretical and applies university web-sites, on-line learning courses and social media learning sources. Material and technical as well as complicated political and economic conditions of higher medical institutions in Ukraine are established as the most significant factors that influence domination of the US universities over ours. The article states that determined progressive ideas of American experience in the scope of ICTs application for medical communication skills development should be considered in order to improve and modernize this process in our country.

This article focuses on techno-pedagogical training of teachers. It focusses also on teaching ICTs and on their uses in education. For this purpose, it explores methods and paradigms that situate school and new technologies in a context of co-construction. These methods and paradigms consider the techno-pedagogical training as a biographical and longitudinal practice. They situate it in a perspective that emphasizes the skills, the quality of learning, the reflexivity and the hybridization of educational system. They base the e-learning and the uses of ICT in school on technical and cognitive skills, methods of invariants, pedagogical scenario, media education and techno-pedagogical innovation.

The usefulness of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) as pedagogical tools have been widely studied, where the need for didactic planning arises so that they become resources for improving educational quality. Emerging technologies are new creations, scientific innovations that can create a new industry or transform an existing one with new technologies, or also allow the use of existing ones mixed with new ones, or improve them based on new requirements. These technologies have some tools such as those listed below: Cloud Computing, Collective Intelligence, Nashua Data, Collaborative Web. The aim is to identify the knowledge that the teachers of the UAEM Valle de México University Center have, regarding emerging ICT, describe the uses that they give to some of these tools and determine their level of updating. We used a mixed methodology, to know, how are they integrated in teaching? What cognitive skills have been promoted with them?

Abstract   The objective of this research is to find out the use of Whatsapp Messenger as a mobile media to learn writing in EFL classes.Several researchers have attempted to prove applicability of mobile learning as modern ways of teaching and learning (Naismith, 2004:115). Moreover, applying portable technologies have been demanded by most of the modern learners who oftentimes are forced to study anywhere, and anytime, for example, at work, in the bus or at weekends (Evans, 2008:115).The research was motivated by the students’ difficulties in writing. The sample of this research was three classes of first grade students of English Department of Unswagati. The instrument of this research was questionnaire sheet. Data from questionnaire sheet was analyzed based on the frequency students’ answers and then was calculated and interpreted into percentages. The result shows WhatsApp Messenger attracts the students interest and also the students have positive responses towards the using ofWhatsAppMessenger. In applying WhatsApp group, the writer concluded that, learning using WhatsApp group has effective to develop their creativity in writing skill. On the other hand, the result from the questionnaire sheet indicated that almost of students is active in learning to writing recount text. Students can learn out of the classroom. Beside WhatsApp can be used privately, it can be used for students’ education. The students can use their gadget positively for their ability in learning English. The students can improve their knowledge in learning ICTs (Information and Communication Technologies).

When modern technology permeates every corner of life, there are ignited more and more hopes among the disabled to be compensated for the loss of mobility and participation in normal life, and with Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), Exoskeleton Technologies and truly hands free technologies (HMI), it's possible for the disabled to be included in the social and pedagogic spheres, especially via computers and smartphones with social media apps and digital instruments for Augmented Reality (AR) .In this paper a nouvel HMI technology is presented with relevance for the inclusion of disabled in every day life with specific focus on the future development of "smart cities" and "smart homes".

Role Of Information

If we want to convert our rural population into knowledge driven, progressive, self sufficient, self reliant, sustainable society, the role of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT’s) cannot be ignored. Timely availability information is considered as most important factor in Indian agriculture. At present ICT is the technology of this millennium. Transferring the developed technology to all end users is time-consuming and tiresome task and is often not completed due to paucity of resources and lack of manpower. In India, agriculture and rural development has gained significantly from ICT due to its widespread extension and adoption. In this era of internet, ICT is committed to provide real, timely accurate authentic information to the farmers and rural peoples.

Borders and bodies are increasingly regulated by data-capturing mechanisms spread across the world through information and communication technologies. This article traces the features and implications of such a border-body datalogical entanglement through the figure of the drug mule. It analyzes government documents and recorded case studies to argue that this figure emerges from an assemblage of cultural narratives, legal structures, human labor, technical practices, and biological processes. The datalogical drug mule is already implicated in a struggle over what, and how, data is meaningful and actionable. Investigating this figure allows us to begin disentangling the data-driven mechanisms that constitute modern borders and bodies while at the same time accounting for analog continuities in contemporary practices of border security.

Internet of Things is a new world for connecting object space in the real world with virtual space in a computer environment. To build IoT as an effective service platform, end users need to trust the system. With the growing quantity of information and communication technologies, the need to ensure information security and improve data security is increasing. One of the potential solutions for this are steganographic methods. Steganography based on the least significant bit (LSB) is a popular and widely used method in the spatial domain.
