Reviewing Simulation Technology: Implications for Workplace Training

Information Technology and the Workplace: Implications for Persons with Disabilities

The Internet improves access to employment and community for many people. However, there is growing concern that many Web sites are inaccessible to people with certain disabilities. This article examines the impact on people with disabilities of online human resources processes used for employee recruitment, benefits, and training. In 2002, Cornell University staff reviewed the accessibility of...

Computer Simulation in the Workplace and Technology Classes

The infusion of new and relevant technologies into the classroom should parallel the introduction of technologies into business and industries. When today’s students graduate, they will be charged with the operation, control, and improvement of these systems. Therefore, students need a curriculum that is current, including new and innovative approaches to teaching, which increase student involv...

Surgical Simulation: An Emerging Technology for Training in Emergency Medicine

Simulation technology for health care professional skills training and assessment.

Changes in medical practice that limit instruction time and patient availability, the expanding options for diagnosis and management, and advances in technology are contributing to greater use of simulation technology in medical education. Four areas of high-technology simulations currently being used are laparoscopic techniques, which provide surgeons with an opportunity to enhance their motor...

Biogas Technology, Applications, Perspectives and Implications

The major purpose of this study was to examine the advantages and implications of biogastechnology in the agriculture sector. Biogas is one of many biomass energy sources, which includeanything that was once alive and that can generate energy (except for fossil fuels, which are notrenewable). To talk of biogas is to talk of agriculture, since biogas generation starts withagricultural waste prod...
