New inventions have been developing in an increasingly fast rate over the years. Different trends are continuously emerging, while some have been here for some time, and some are just getting started. According to the World Economic Forum the top ten emerging trends of 2015 will be, fuel cell vehicles, next-generation robotics, recyclable thermoset plastics, precise genetic engineering techniques, additive many factoring, emergent artificial intelligence, distributed manufacturing, 'sense and avoid' drones, neuromorphic technology, digital genome. (Meyerson, B) All of which are technology based inventions.
I believe the future of new technology will begin to evolve around robots. Robots are known to be less prices and more efficient with the

"The importance of understanding how to use technology as an athletic coach becomes more apparent as technology continues to evolve and advance within our culture. " (Freeland, B.) Being a basketball coach is all about adapting to change. No two practices and no two games will ever be the same. Which is why as a basketball coach adaptation is a very important part to the game. Coaches have to learn to adapt to technology the same way they learn to handle a lead change in a basketball game. “Technology continues to improve and change. The theory of Moore’s Law states that, every 18 months, processing circuits will double in speed yet halve in price, which even 50 years on proves true, demonstrating just how progressive technology is."(Lewis, N)
As a whole technology helps with coaching more than it hurts coaching. As a coach you know that, every practice, an every game you have to find a way to adapt to change quickly. Adjusting to technology is no different. Learning about cameras, film break down, recruiting systems have all became a part of advance technology and have all been well worth it. They only downside about the technology being used is technology doesn't always work. Glitches happening every now and again is all a part of the game as

Studying abroad was something that had not crossed my mind prior to coming to college and in my first year at URI. I was someone who had a hard time adjusting to the complete culture shock of going to school far away from home and being away from family for the first time. As I had adjusted to my life at URI and learned to love everything it has to offer, I came across the ‘major’ dilemma. I needed to figure out what I really wanted to do with my life, but felt that I couldn’t pin point exactly what it was that I wanted to do. I always had a passion for interior design, but never thought of it as a career path because I didn’t think that I would be able to get a job after graduation.
Visual arts have been practiced by all human beings since thousands of years ago. Although there is only a limited amount of evidence and creative pieces from that long ago, it is clear that art has progressed and evolved in a significant way. It first originated from crude symbolic drawings of the stone age art era, then evolved past the bronze, iron, medieval, and renaissance art period, and finally to the art that we know of today, modern and contemporary art, which features more abstract pieces. Out of all these, the one that stands out to me the most and has the greatest influence in the style and method that I create my art pieces today, would be the modern era.
How has the media content has changed and what influence journalism today? This is an important question to ask, not least because the media can bring long-lasting effects on human knowledge and build their perceptions of the world. News media can be considered as a source of power and influence to society but opinions differ on who or which have influence over these media and change, but journalism has through time been a key player for shaping society. (Strömbäck, & Karlsson, Who's Got the Power? (2011)
There has been a struggle between gender equality for many centuries. According to (Bush, 2016), the United States ranks 28th out of the 145 countries in the world ranking of equality for women. With the help of brave women, influential law makers, and persistence we are able to alter the unbalance of fairness and opportunities for women in the work place. We strive for equality not only in the work place but in all aspects of life. Although gender equality has come a long way in the past decade, there still is a substantial gap with fairness in the work place.
Technology has always been progressing thus it is rampant in our society today. We use technology; depend on technology in our daily life and our needs and demands for technology keep on rising (Ramey, 2012). Wherever you look, you will see people holding different kinds of technology like cell phone, laptop, tablets and etc. It appears to most of us that technology is a necessity to the point where we can no longer live without it. According to Gavin (2013), technology moves at a rapid pace, and can be hard to keep up with at times.
The world of Architecture is constantly evolving. Numerous elements regulate this world, such as the climate, scientific advancement and economic conditions. Therefore, Architecture is determined by the desires of the citizens in their time. As renowned Architect Frank Gehry once said, “Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness”. This aspect is one of the main problems the Architecture industry faces today.
Satya Nadella “Information technology has been one of the leading drivers of globalization, and it may also become one of its major victims.” Evgeny Morozov These two quotes for me have different perspectives on what information technology is to our world, however, there are multiple types of careers that make up what we know as information technology. The first quote is saying that everything around us today is run by technology and that it is a huge element today that isn’t hidden.
Since September 11th 2001 the airlines have been impacted financially, affected by passengers’ fear of flying, recessions, the rising cost of fuel, and the simple fact that the old style of running an airline wasn’t working anymore. There were some hard times as airline after airline declared bankruptcy and or was forced to merge with another airline just to survive. However, in recent time the airlines have flourished, making record profits. The International Air Transport Association projected profits for the airline industry of $29.3 billion in 2015, which is up nearly 80 percent from last year.

Imagine a life where humans can fight off diseases, where transportation is not dependant upon animals or limited to the ground, where distant communication can occur in a matter of seconds, and where the Earth isn't our only frontier. Although this is the world in which we live now all of this might just have been wishful thinking for someone in the past. Recent discoveries and advancements in technology are the result of scientific progression, but also is every other single aspect of present time. Humans are now able to travel faster, live longer, and explore farther, only some of the comforts offered by science. Admittedly, progresses in its different fields have sometimes been burdens for men, but more often they are not.
“The PC has improved the world in just about every area you can think of. Amazing developments in communications, collaborations and efficiencies. New kinds of entertainment and social media. Access to information and the ability to give a voice people who never would have been heard. ”-
Today’s modern society is extremely fast-paced, with standards changing all the time from new developments in technology and science. I believe that learning helps us adapt to and take advantage of these situations in continuing to shape our future. More problems are being solved now than they were years ago thanks to the power of learning. And sometimes, most of those solutions are merely simple changes to a routine or procedure in order to make it more
