Power transmission is a process required in almost every piece of machinery. From the tiny motors in pop-up selfie cameras to the innovative transmission lines of the Large Hadron Collider, power transmission applications are all around us. We use power transmission methods to transmit power from the prime mover to the driven machinery for its function. There are four main types of power transmission – mechanical, electric, hydraulic and pneumatic. In this article,
To acquire information literacy, one must actively participate in accessing information in a timely and effective manner. One must evaluate information in a timely and effective manner. One must evaluate information critically and adequately. In order to resolve the issue/problem, information must be used accurately. A wide variety of sources must also be used to manage the flow of information. Finally, one must grasp an understanding of the legal/ethical issues surrounding the use of information.
To acquire media literacy, one must gain an understanding of how and why media messages are constructed. One must also realize that people may interpret messages differently and that media has the capacity to influence others' behaviors and beliefs. Like that of acquiring information literacy, we must have an understanding of the legal/ethical issues surrounding the use of media. It is also important to comprehend and use appropriate media and creation tools.
To acquire technology skills, one must utilize computers, media players, GPS, PDAs, networking tools, and social networks to integrate, manage, access, and create information to successfully function in a knowledge economy. One should also grasp an understanding of the legal/ethical issues surrounding the use of information technologies.
two examples of how they are used in the classroom
1. The following technology tools are commonly used by students: digital cameras, presentation software, group web page designs, word processing software, scanners, and publishing software. These tools are utilized in collaboration with publishing activities, collaborative writing, and communication.
2. Other tools like clip art, video, audio, electronic documents, and moviemaker programs to collaborate for the creation of electronic products are becoming increasingly popular among students.
People in the 21st century live in a technology and media-suffused environment, marked by various characteristics, including:
1) access to an abundance of information,
2) rapid changes in technology tools, and
3) the ability to collaborate and make individual contributions on an unprecedented scale.
