Computers in the Workplace

The industry that I chose is healthcare. Technology has always been a big part of healthcare. If you go to a hospital there is technology everywhere that monitor and exam what is going on inside of the bodies of the patients. Technology in the healthcare industry may be the most important because it is an industry with very minimal room for era. These days robotic machines are able to do all sorts of things, even perform surgical operations. The attention to detail that these machines can pay is unrivaled and key to noticing patterns that lead to important discoveries. AI continues to become more knowledgeable, increasing its abilities and lessening the work load of employees. Workers in the healthcare industry must learn ways to interact with these machines and understand what they are doing to further improve speed and efficiency. It’s best to learn this information in college to ensure a level of familiarity with their tools. Health care institutions should emphasize the technical duties that will be expected of the employees with the technology that they use to gauge if their technological skills are competent.

 The network and hardware involved holds valuable data that and make finding solutions in the field easier. Without computer literacy, workers in health care will be unable communicate with things like AI and robots, who are essentially their coworkers.

So while these technological advancements are beginning to fill the roles that were occupied by employees, new roles are opening. Healthcare, like many other industries, is practically merging with the field of technology. The same knowledge about the human body is necessary to help facilitate procedures and operations alongside advancing technology. Technology is taking the stress away by performing strenuous tasks with automative technology. There are pros and cons to technology. They are effective and accurate but malfunctions are possible. The improvements that current and future technologies will bring to the healthcare industry will be worth the increased need for computer literacy.

Writing Efficient Programs

  Writing Better Programs: More Than Just “Making It Work” When I first started coding, my mindset was simple: if the program runs, I’m done. But after getting into data structures and algorithm design, I’ve realized that how a program works matters just as much as if it works. That’s where algorithmic design and data structures come in—they help you build programs that are not just correct, but efficient and well-structured. 🔹 Thinking Like a Programmer (Before You Code) One of the biggest changes I’ve made is slowing down before I start typing code. Instead of jumping straight into Java, I try to break the problem down into steps first. This is algorithmic design. For example, I’ll: Figure out what the program needs to do Write out the steps (kind of like pseudocode) Then translate that into actual code Doing this helps me avoid confusion and keeps my program organized from the start. 🔹 Are Some Algorithms and Data Structures Better? Yes—but not in a one-si...

Duolingo Critique

The app that I chose to review is Duolingo. There is a web version also. It is an interactive learning app that has many features. It can be accessed from multiple mobile devices like a tablet, laptop or phone. It can also be accessed with a pc. Functionality is seamless on all platforms. There is a database of learners with their information being stored for individual reference and each learner can connect with others through their profile. You can add friends and interact with others users. There are leaderboards that track progress daily on the app. This format is exciting because it makes the experience feel more like a game than educational lessons. There is a competitive factor and challenges that keep things interesting. Conversational exercises can be practiced in a more natural manner through an AI generated FaceTime call that reacts to your responses and stores your conversations. Stories are another way of practicing a language on the app. A pre generated radio program is a...

The Principles of Java

  Before writing programs, I had to install Java, which is simple with the right resources. First, I downloaded the Java Development Kit (JDK) from Oracle or OpenJDK . Then I ran the installer, which sets up everything you need, including the compiler and runtime. Most modern installers handle the system path automatically. Finally, I tested it by creating a simple HelloWorld.java program, compiling it with javac HelloWorld.java, and running it with java HelloWorld. For detailed guidance, I found Oracle’s Java tutorials and JavaTpoint very helpful. Learning Java introduced me to object-oriented programming (OOP), a way of designing software around “objects” that model real-world concepts. OOP makes programs easier to maintain, reuse, and expand—skills that are useful whether you’re building small apps or large systems. I explored the four main principles of OOP : Encapsulation : Keeping data and the methods that act on it together in a class, controlling access to internal ...
