1.Haptics Technology > a type of technology wherein the 's sense of touch is used to feel force, vibrations, or motions for several purposes. > mostly applied in video games, movies, or in the virtual arts, such as synthesis of sound, and for graphics deg and animation.

Example: A. Game Controllers/Joysticks > vibrations are felt on the controllers whenever there are obstacles on the game to alert the player.

B. Steering wheels > technology wherein instead of using the voice of GPS applications as a guide for directions the steering wheel will vibrate to tell you which way to turn

2. Context Awareness > Gathers information from the s and predicting or anticipating the ’s needs from those choices or preferences.

.

3. Voice and tone recognition

> used to confirm a person's identity and tone recognition can be used to detect a person's health or emotional state.

4. Intelligent routing to devices >can provide location just by taking picture of the street or by giving specific description using smartphones and GPS.

5. Eye tracking technology > refers to a form of technology that analyzes the movements or positions of a person's eyes through computer applications. used for identifying or confirming one's identity.

Eye tracking has a potential application on the ff. fields:

a. Road safety - drivers who are feeling sleepy or distracted can be alerted.

b. Health care - PWD can easily communicate with their aid and can push themselves when roaming around on electric wheelchair.

c. Security - catch people with suspicious behaviour.

d. Interaction between human and computer - s can blink or gaze on an icon to control. e. Law enforcement - for lie detection.

6. Internet glasses > refers to technology currently being developed that displays visuals directly on the eyes that doesn't blink one's line of sight. can be utilized in eyeglasses and can be used for e-Gaming, military defense.

MASSIVE OPEN ONLINE CONTENT

Massive Open Online Content (MOOC) is defined by Educause as a model for delivering learning content online to any person who wants to take a course, with no limit on attendance.

Example: - coursera.org - novoed.com - mooc.list.com - edx.org - model.upou.edu.ph

MOOC - is an online course that encourage peoples to interact with one another to share knowledge.

EDUCAUSE - is a nonprofit association whose mission is to advance higher education through the use of information technology.

WEARABLE TECHNOLOGY - is new trend where people are given the convenience of literally wearing their gadgets for multiple purposes.

Wearable tech gadgets are primarily used for: - As a fashion statement - As a fitness tracker - As a media devices - As a communication gadgets

LATEST WEARABLE

1. Google Glass - its physical look is inspired by usual eyeglasses. displayed information in a smart phone-like, hands-free format.

2. Apple Watch - relies on a wireless connection to an iPhone to perform many of its default functions such as calling and texting.

3. Fitbit Charge 2 - fitness wristband

4. Virtual Reality ( HTC VR Headset) - is the use of computer technology to create a simulated environment. display device, they enable the wearer to view a series of computer generated images which they can interact with.

3D ENVIRONMENT -are often referred to as virtual reality or interactive 3D and have figurative appearance. Much like our world this type of world allows interaction with other networked.

EXAMPLES: 1. 3D Printing -also known as addictive manufacturing(AM) refers to processes used to synthesize a 3 dimensional object in which successive layers of material are formed under computer control to create an object.

2. 3D Film -is a motion picture that enhances the illusion of depth perception, hence adding a third dimension.

3. Augmented reality (AR)

-is a live direct or indirect view of physical, real-world environment whose elements are augmented or supplemented by computer generated sensory input such as sound, video, graphics or GPS data.

4. Hologram -is a physical structure that diffracts light into an image. The term hologram can refer both the encoded material and resulting image. A hologram image can be seen by looking into an illuminated holographic print or by shinning a laser through a hologram and projecting the image onto a screen.

OBIQUITOUS LEARNING - Is often simply defined as learning anywhere, anytime and is therefore closely associated with mobile technologies.

CHARACTERISTICS:

1. Permanency -learning materials are always available unless purposely deleted.

2. Accessibility -access from everywhere as personally required. 3. Immediacy -wherever a student is, he/ she can immediately access learning materials. 4. Interactivity -online collaboration with teachers and peers (chat/blogs/forums)

5. Situated instructional Activities -learning in context (on site). 6. Adaptability -getting the right information at the right place for the right student.
