Technology has become part of the everyday fabric in our daily life. Computers and the capabilities programmed into them help provide the basis of our modern society. Examples range from food production and distribution to water, gas, electricity, as well as entertainment, news, games, and just about everything we touch or consume. The student will write a 2000 to 2500 word paper on the differences between the technology in use in 1910 and the technology in use today. The student should critically evaluate the pace of change over the last 100 years and predict as to where technology will be in 10 years. The student will make predictions of how the changing technology will modify how management of technology will change. For example, the advent of the PC and its numerous applications moved much of the management of data from the Glass Room to desktops in functional departments. Wide-spread use of the web has made other changes in how technology and information is managed. What changes will future technology require. The student will review and identify the job skills in management and technology needed for continually development of professional identity in relationship to how work, play, and life will be lived in 10 years. The paper should be properly APA formatted with at least 10 references to other ideas and thoughts on professional competency in business, management and technology.
