technology to become and educated and productive member of the digital world.

an online community where users can share their interest with other registered users.

methods.

4. What are the negative effects of digital distraction? Digital distraction can lead to lower grades, strained
relationships, or danger of an injury or accident.

, 5. Explain the role of vacuum tubes, transistors, and integrated circuits in computer development. Vacuum
tools were used by the first generation of computers to control the flow of electrons. The next
generation of computers replaced vacuum tubes with transistors, which were smaller, cheaper, and
more reliable. Integrated circuits packed the equivalent of thousands of vacuum tubes or transistors
into a silicon chip.

6. How did the microprocessor contribute to the development of the PC? Microprocessors were even faster,
smaller, and less expensive than integrated circuits.

7. Define the Internet of Things. The Internet of Things is an environment in which processors are
embedded in every product imaginable that these things, in turn, communicate with each other via
the Internet or wireless networks.

8. Explain the role of embedded computers in IoT. List examples. Embedded computers enhance the
capabilities of everyday devices by performing a specific function. Examples include: a printer
monitoring ink levels, and in-vehicle cameras.

9. Chip-and-Pin technology stores data on a credit card’s embedded chip instead of a magnetic stripe.

10. Define kiosk. Describe its uses. A kiosk is a freestanding booth that contains a display device used to
show information. Kiosks enable self-serve transactions in hotels, airports, and also are used by
health care providers.

11. How does IoT affect home and business users? IoT enables you to manage devices remotely in your
home, such as starting your dishwasher from your phone. All businesses can use IoT; for example,
robotic arms for manufacturing, shipping companies tracking mileage and location of trucks, and
retail sensors used to track inventory.

12. Describe the digital divide, and how it is harmful. The digital divide is the gap between those who have
access to technology and its resources and information, and those who do not. Inequalities affect
learning, knowledge, and opportunities of those affected.

13. Explain how privacy has been impacted by technology. Data is collected on almost all actions and
transactions, such as web surfing, purchases, questionnaires, and more. Today it is virtually

officers, individual businesses, and government agencies.
