Increasing numbers of students require internet access to pursue their undergraduate degrees, yet broadband access remains inequitable across student populations. Furthermore, surveys that currently show differences in access by student demographics or location typically do so at high levels of aggregation, thereby obscuring important variation…

This qualitative descriptive study explored how full-time faculty of a California higher education institution described their experience with the Information Technology Services employees' commitment, communications, and quality of customer service when resolving classroom Wi-Fi issues. The study used the model of Total Quality Management (TQM)…

The purpose of the present study was to explore what wireless and wearable technologies individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) use to connect socially, how these technologies are used to facilitation social connectedness, what barriers or challenges exist when using technology to connect socially, and what supports or…

To address the challenges that persist at many levels for tribal nations in pursuit of increasing accessibility to basic necessities and developing infrastructure for their citizenry, I have created this research. I show how key leaders in the Navajo Nation understand the importance of developing a sound infrastructure that would sustain our…

In this study, a simplified strategy for the English assistance model was provided to overcome the limitations of current school English display settings and increase the scope of 5G innovation. This study uses a learning strategy based convolutional neural network (LS-CNN) to determine the execution of college English learning strategies. This…

Broadband is not equally accessible among students despite its increasing importance to education. We investigate the relationship between broadband and housing policy by joining two measures of broadband access with Depression-era redlining maps that classified neighborhoods based in part on racist and classist beliefs. We find that despite…

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of objects that can exchange data with other devices also connected to the Internet. One of the most common consumer examples of IoT is home automation, as a variety of smart devices, including doorbells, lightbulbs, thermostats, and refrigerators are now available which users can control remotely using…

College of Telecommunication and Information (CTI) provides a highly technically trained cadre that would be able to find the best scientific solutions to the problems facing us and support the development process and capable of keeping pace with the fast-global technological development (College of Telecom & Information in Riyadh 2010). With…

The human brain is a byproduct of the natural process of evolution, as is the knowledge it contains. Like other natural resources fit for human consumption, knowledge can be modeled as a physical entity that can be sought after and acquired. In ancient times, knowledge was geographically constrained as a consequence of being a physical entity…

The influence of 4th generation broadband cellular network technology on education is explored in this paper. With the widespread use of smartphones and tablets, students are increasingly using mobile devices to access learning resources, communicate with peers, and complete assignments. The advent of 4G technology has had a revolutionary impact…

Information Communication Technology (ICT) is ubiquitous in the 21st century, hence both educators and learners need to integrate relevant ICT resources in their teaching and learning practices, to meet stakeholder's expectations and keep abreast with the race of technological advancement. The current research focuses on the analysis of ICT…

In the fields of information technology and information systems, faculty must consistently adjust curriculum to meet the demands of the field. However, a challenge they often face is understanding what should be covered, especially given the limited number of courses most universities are able to offer. This research explores the knowledge and…

This dissertation explores the relationship between how teams form and what they need to perform. It adopts the perspective that technology is fundamental to organizing in modern workplaces and examines how technology may both enhance and constrain teamwork. By adopting this perspective, two questions naturally follow. First, how do teams organize…
