The uses for communication technology continue to grow in the United States. Technology is changing how people collect and share information and is reshaping how people interact with one another. As a result of this transformation, the use of technology has evolved in social work practice. Communication technology is being incorporated into traditional social work practice for administrative and therapeutic purposes. This article will examine a theoretically based direction for the future creation of technologically driven interventions in social work practice and address both the challenges and opportunities communication technology poses for social work practice.
The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted institutions of higher education, and as a result, many educators are now experiencing Zoom fatigue. Institutions of higher education have moved to online or remote learning and are integrating web conferencing tools such as Zoom, WebEx, and Adobe Connect for course delivery. Many educators have reported an overutilization of technology, which has resulted in technostress. Technostress has been shown to affect physical and mental health. As more institutions of higher education move to remote learning, it will require a collective response from educators and from colleges and universities. The purpose of this article is to explore how the technostress model can be used as the framework to provide strategies to recognize and address Zoom fatigue.
This paper describes the functionality of ViC*, a compiler for a variant o f the data-parallel language C* with support for out-of-core data. The compiler translates C* programs with s h a pes declared outofcore, w h i c h describe parallel data stored on disk. The compiler output is a SPMD-style program in standard C w i t h I / O and library calls added to e ciently access out-of-core parallel data. The ViC* compiler also applies several program transformations to improve out-of-core data layout and access.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
