On the internet, students are able to take courses from anywhere and set their own pace for learning, but online convenience can come at a cost to building social connections and finding support to succeed.
An artificially intelligent system from Georgia Tech, the Jill Watson Social Agent, has been designed to connect online students quickly to their peers in what we’re dubbing “speed friending.”
Manufacturing workplaces are becoming sites of intense change as technologies like IoT, VR, and AR begin to make deep inroads into how complex products are engineered and assembled. Technology has the potential to shift manufacturing in both large and small ways and to better understand how a manufacturing organization might use virtual reality, researchers ran a study with a global aviation manufacturer headquartered the United States.
Digital resources are often collectively owned and shared by small social groups: friends sharing Netflix accounts, roommates sharing game consoles, families sharing WhatsApp groups. Yet, little is known about how these groups jointly navigate cybersecurity and privacy decisions for shared resources. Researchers conducted group interviews and a supplemental diary study with nine social groups of varying relationship types. They identified why, how and what resources groups shared, their jointly construed threat models, and how these factors influenced group strategies for securing shared resources.
