I'm going to talk about ADVENTURE SPORTS.

On the one hand , I wouldn't practise them because I'm really scary, I have vertigo and I'm afraid of heights.

On the other hand, I think it is fantastic to watch, they are an amazing show. Furthermore, when you see people doing extreme sports you feel the rush.

In conclusion, it is better to watch them than to do them.

Mobile phones in schools

New technologies are a new part of our lives, so why can't teachers use them to teach?

On the one hand, mobile phones are a great form to theach the children with platforms like padlet, kahoot, edmodo, edpuzzle,... that teachers can use at class by a fun way to learn, through games.
More over, in my opinion, it's very convenient for teachers to send homework from their homes, and students will never forget their homework, because it's always online.

On the other hand, children can do things without knowing what they are doing, and without thinking in their responsabilites. For example, they upload photographs of their classmates without their permission.
That's why mobile phones are forbidden in many schools.

In conclusion, mobile phones are a great tool for education, but always with control.

disadvantages and advantages of living in the city.

In the city there are many, shops, shopping centers, swimming pools, hospitals and schools.

but there is also a lot of traffic that causes more pollution than in the towns .

in the towns there are green landscapes that in the city there are not.

in the city there are no cattle rats, no pigs, no cows, no agricultural fields, so there are no farmers or ranchers.

in the cities, on the other hand, there are public transports.

in my opinion it is better to live in the village than in a city .

NEW TECHNOLGIES

unaiestrella — 2017-12-18 11:17:39 UTC

1. Smart apps
Personal virtual finance assistants make daily tasks easier, such as the prioritization of our correspondence, agendas, payments, transfers, purchases, consumption and lists of pending interactions.
Smart applications also allow companies to manage in an integrated manner different aspects of their financial management, human resources, their distribution or their supply chains.
The intelligence of this new generation of apps incorporates advanced analysis capabilities, increasing autonomy and increasingly immersive environments.
Blockchain
It is a transaction data network in which each of your users is in contact with all the others, and has the database of transactions intact. This detail means that the base does not have a single owner or someone who controls it.

Conversational systems
Next year we will see an increase in the use of other languages, supported by the use of images, sounds or even textures interpretable by sensors and by a growing range of objects, aimed at virtual banking service advisors.

Service architectures
Intelligent digital mesh (proposed by Gartner) raises the homogeneity of technologies and tools to offer dynamic, flexible and modular solutions. This requires a convergence in the architectures on which the applications are based.

5. Digital technology platforms

Digital financial companies require several platforms to access and capitalize on all the advantages of the digital world: some that manage their information systems, others that allow them to manage their user experience, a third group that serves to analyze the market, and a fourth and fifth groups related respectively to the Internet of Things and business ecosystems, connections to accounts and banking services In view of this need, in 2018 new platforms will emerge that will offer all or some of these services to companies that can not develop their own technology.

I´m going to talk about the teenagers, and there are a lot of opinions, the adolescents is a time of changes and the trasformation of the child into an adult.

On the one hand the teenagers feel free and do what you want, you don´t have so many responsibilities and you don´t have work so much as the adults.

But on the other hand the teenagers let yourself influenced more by the friends, you have to study more...

In conclusion : I think that thr adolescence is a time you can have a great time with your friends, but you can´t do what you want, because you have a lot of obligations,
