Various uses of technology can be invaluable when it comes to educational success and improved learning. At the same time, people need to be cautious in seeing all forms of technology as an easy fix to how people are taught. Jim Rovira, associate professor of English at Tiffin University, explains to Tim Muma how important it is to ensure students are matched with the appropriate use of technology. Whether it's taking online classes or utilizing in-class technology for lessons and assessment, it's imperative educators understand that each student has different needs and will succeed or fail based on the fit of the technology they use. We explore the latest social media applications for the modern day workplace, as well as learn how to utilize these various outlets as an employer, job seeker and professional. Together, we’ll research the role of technology and its impact on the job market.
