This document outlines a vision for improving the library at SMHS high school. It proposes providing every student with a laptop and affordable internet access to address the "digital divide". It also suggests training students and parents on technology and information literacy. The library aims to incorporate more web 2.0 tools into instruction and assessments. Initiatives to promote reading include book clubs, literature circles, and expanding access to materials. The library will also implement a content management system to create an online presence for the school community.

Exploring the uses of ICT in education: A national survey studyRobert Reuter
This document summarizes the results of a national survey study exploring the uses of information and communication technologies (ICT) in education in Luxembourg. The survey was distributed to all teachers in public schools and received 408 responses. Key findings include:
- On average, teachers are 41 years old with 15 years of experience and 54% are female.
- Most schools have basic ICT infrastructure like projectors, desktops, and printers but fewer have newer technologies like interactive whiteboards and tablets. Internet access is mostly via Ethernet or WiFi.
- Teachers report average to advanced general ICT competencies but feel they need more training to effectively teach with ICT.
- In their personal lives, teachers frequently use ICT
Manual handling and patient handling can cause injury to healthcare workers. Proper lifting techniques and equipment like lift teams, sliding boards, and mechanical lifts should be used to move patients safely and prevent worker injuries. Healthcare employers must provide worker training on safe patient handling policies and equipment.
The document summarizes research from a 2010 study on how long it takes to create different types of learning content. It provides development time benchmarks for instructor-led training (ILT), Level 1 eLearning, Level 2 eLearning, and Level 3 eLearning. For each learning format, it gives average development times and cost estimates based on survey responses from 249 organizations. It also breaks down the average time spent on different development tasks and provides charts to help organizations benchmark their own learning development times.
Globalization refers to the increasing economic integration and interdependence of nations through trade. As globalization has increased, countries specialize in producing goods they have a comparative advantage in and trade for other goods. Examples include the US importing fruit from Chile and companies like Nike manufacturing shoes in other countries to reduce costs. While globalization allows for lower prices and economic growth, it has also led to issues like outsourcing jobs abroad and unequal conditions for workers in some factories and industries. Views on globalization range from those who see its benefits as inevitable to those concerned it has negative social impacts if not properly managed.
