Networks Supporting the Way We Learn

Communication, collaboration, and engagement are fundamental building blocks of education. Institutions

are continually striving to enhance these processes to maximize the dissemination of

knowledge. Robust and reliable networks support and enrich student learning experiences Traditional learning methods provide primarily two sources of expertise from which

the student can obtain information: the textbook and the instructor. These two sources are limited,

both in the format and the timing of the presentation. In contrast, online courses can contain voice,

data, and video, and are available to the students at any time from any place. Students can follow

links to different references and to subject experts in order to enhance their learning experience.

Online discussion groups and message boards enable a student to collaborate with the instructor,

with other students in the class, or even with students across the world. 

Students may communicate with the instructor and fellow students using online tools, like e-mail,

bulletin/discussion boards, chat rooms, and instant messaging. Links provide access to learning

resources outside of the courseware. Blended e-learning provides the benefits of computer-based

training while retaining advantages of instructor-led curriculum. Students have the opportunity to

work online at their own pace and skill level while still having access to an instructor and other

live resources.

In addition to the benefits for the student, networks have improved the management and administration

of courses as well. Some of these online functions include enrollment, assessment delivery

and grade books.

In the business world, the use of networks to provide efficient and cost-effective employee training

is increasing in acceptance. Online learning opportunities can decrease time-consuming and costly

travel yet still ensure that all employees are adequately trained to perform their jobs in a safe and

productive manner.

Networks Supporting the Way We Work

Initially, data networks were used by businesses to internally record and manage financial information,
customer information, and employee payroll systems. These business networks evolved to enable
the transmission of many different types of information services, including e-mail, video,
messaging, and telephony.


Networks Supporting the Way We Play

The Internet is used for traditional forms of entertainment, as well. We listen to recording artists,
preview or view motion pictures, read entire books and download material for future offline access.
Live sporting events and concerts can be experienced as they are happening, or recorded and
viewed on demand.

Networks enable the creation of new forms of entertainment, such as online games. Players participate
in any kind of online competition that game designers can imagine. We compete with friends
and foes around the world in the same manner if they were in the same room.

Even offline activities are enhanced using network collaboration services. Global communities of
interest have grown rapidly. We share common experiences and hobbies well beyond our local
neighborhood, city, or region. Sports fans share opinions and facts about their favorite teams. Collectors
display prized collections and get expert feedback about them.

Online markets and auction sites provide the opportunity to buy, sell and trade all types of merchandise.

Whatever form of recreation we enjoy in the human network, networks are improving our experience.

How Networks Impact Our Daily Life _Part 1

Network in Our Everyday Life...

• The methods that we use to share ideas and information are constantly changing and evolving. Whereas the human network was once limited to face-to-face conversations, media breakthroughs continue to extend the reach of our communications.

• Early data networks were limited to exchanging character-based information between connected computer systems. 
• Current networks have evolved to carry voice, video streams, text, and graphics between many different types of devices.

Network has been re purposed to improve the quality of life for people everywhere. In our day-to-day basis, networks improves our lives and change the way we communicate with the world.
