Computers in Education
The typical school has 1 computer per 20 students, a ratio that computer
educators feel is still not high enough to affect classroom learning as much as
books and classroom conversation.
Some critics see computer education as merely the latest in a series of
unsuccessful attempts to revolutionise education through the use of audio- and
visually-oriented non print media. For example, motion pictures, broadcast
television, filmstrips, audio recorders, and videotapes were all initially
heralded for their instructional potential, but each of these ultimately became
minor classroom tools alongside conventional methods.
Communications Satellite
A communications satellite is an artificial SATELLITE placed into orbit around
the Earth to facilitate communications on Earth. Most long-distance radio
communication across land is sent via MICROWAVE relay towers. In effect, a
satellite serves as a tall microwave tower to permit direct transmission between
stations, but it can interconnect any number of stations that are included
within the antenna beams of the satellite rather than simply the two ends of the
microwave link.
Computer Crime
Computer crime is defined as any crime involving a computer accomplished through
the use or knowledge of computer technology. Computers are objects of crime when
they or their contents are damaged, as when terrorists attack computer centres
with explosives or gasoline, or when a "computer virus" a program capable of
altering or erasing computer memory is introduced into a computer system.
