Article: Certificates are misunderstood credentials that pay off -- mostly for men

We were right on the money with the NET degree+certificate structure. Just sayin'. 

Over all, a certificate is the highest form of education held by about 1 in 10 American workers, according to the study, which collected and crunched data from several government sources. And certificate holders earn 20 percent more than workers who hold only a high school diploma.

More surprising, however, is the finding that fully one-third of certificate holders also have an associate, bachelor’s or graduate degree. Such a large percentage suggests that workers are getting certificates to bolster skills or learn new ones in a tight job market. And people are going back to college for certificates throughout their careers, with a third of certificates earned by students over the age of 30.

Video about Social Media

Nice video - shout out to Ruth for sending me this link:

On "Apple's Sweatshops"

A colleague sent me this email (quoted in it's entirety):

> I am interested in your take on the current controversy about Apple's China sweat shops. Thanks.
I'll post my reply here. At the bottom of the post are two URLs: one for a recent article about worker raises and increased attention of the factories; the other perhaps the best article I have read on the issue, from the New York Times. I urge you to read the Times article in its entirety - it contains some very insightful observations about globalization and America's place in the new economy.

My response to my colleague follows:

---

Well, first, other that having a tremendous appreciation for Apple products, I am no industry expert, nor an economist, nor a social philosopher.

I assume you are referring to Foxconn, and specifically its plant in Shenzen which has around a quarter million workers, many of whom live in company dormitories.

While the working conditions and expectations for a factory worker at Foxconn probably sound alien (and harsh) to an American worker, but global standards perhaps not. Six-day work weeks and 12-hour shifts for the American equivalent of $20 a day may be interpreted as a "sweat shop" here, but Foxconn's factories are modern, well-lit and ventilated, clean and safe.

It should also be pointed out, in the context of your question, that the factories are not Apple's. Foxconn and the other suppliers in Asia, South America and Eastern Europe make components for and assemble virtually all the electronics Americans consume - not just iPhones but televisions, stereos, computers, automotive electronics, home energy controls, and on and on and on.

Largely as the result of Apple's success in the smartphone market and Foxconn's central role in iPhone manufacturing, the company is getting a lot of attention. A few years ago there was a "rash" of worker suicides that many were quick to ascribe to the "inhumane" working conditions. But with a worker population of a quarter-million, the number of suicides in that period were within the background frequency.

From the point of view of the worker, Foxconn is a pretty good deal. Most of its unskilled or semiskilled laborers are fleeing an agrarian - and largely unmechanized - lifestyle. A 12-hour shift in a well-lit and clean factory with wages above the regulated minimum plus overtime and bonuses must sound pretty decent to someone who is slogging pig shit by hand into a muddy field for 14 hours a day.

It is not a fair comparison to judge Foxconn's working conditions and wages in China (or Brazil or Mexico or the Czech Republic) against American middle-class sensibilities. American workers recoil at descriptions of Foxconn's working conditions, but only because they would prefer to spend more time with family, coaching their kids' soccer teams, and watching football on TV. But those are not choices workers in most of the world get to make. Their choices are often between working and starving.

There is also the matter of whether Apple (and others) really have a choice whether to employ Americans or go overseas. According to the NY Times article linked below, they really do not. The supply chain is in Asia. The Chinese government is willing to invest in factory expansion to enable Foxconn and other suppliers to bid and win contracts. They have a vast and willing population of appropriately-trained skilled and semi-skilled workers.

Foxconn workers are not slaves, and they are not children. They stood in line to apply for their jobs. They do this because factory work is their best option for a better life. I'm not claiming that Foxconn is Willy Wonka and everybody is happy and singing all day - I know I would not much like working in those conditions. But not that many generations ago, our own ancestors stood in line to work in the coal mines, or the garment shops, or meat packing plants. I would argue that a worker assembling glass screens for an iPhone in 2012 Shenzen is better off than a meatpacker in 1906 Chicago. And I would also argue that they are both in the same position economically and morally - because those conditions are better than the ones they left, and because middle class demand for inexpensive products, whether gadgets or beef, is driving the supply chain.

Upton Sinclair exposed the brutality and profit-driven conditions of the Chicago meatpacking trade, and that eventually led to better conditions for the workers, for the cattle, and for safer products for consumers. Today, the technology bloggers serve that role - calling out the Apples and Foxconns when profits seem to trump humanity, and forcing by strength of public opinion changes when changes are warranted.

Chicago and America emerged from the industrial revolution to build the largest economy the world has ever known, and has sustained that for more than a century. China (and other emerging economies) are poised to do the same in this century.

For what it's worth... Thanks for the question. Do read the Times article.

Article: The Internet is a Major Driver of the Growth of Cognitive Inequality

"Moral of the story: the internet makes dumb people dumber and smart people smarter. If you don't know how to use it, or don't have the background to ask the right questions, you'll end up with a head full of nonsense. But if you do know how to use it, it's an endless wealth of information. Just as globalization and de-unionization have been major drivers of the growth of income inequality over the past few decades, the internet is now a major driver of the growth of cognitive inequality. Caveat emptor."

Indeed. Access to a vast reserve of information, uncataloged and mostly uncurated, without a robust set of critical thinking skills and information literacy techniques, is a recipe for hyperstupid.

There's a new icon on my keyboard at the microphone and with this microphone I can dictate the contents of an email using the Siri assistant for the Apple iPhone 4S using just my voice I can create compose and send an email. This email can be sent anywhere and we'll post to Facebook and twitter. And in fact this particular post was done entirely as a dictation with no editing. I see if you Meyer errors but probably no more than I could make what I'm typing especially on the small keyboard and I can do this virtually hands-free. This seems to work at least as well as some of the dedicated text to speech applications I've used. In fact it seems to be a little bit smarter about contractions and alternative words.

Life in a Day, and why YouTube and Wikipedia matter

Life in a Day is, at its core, a documentary film. But its scope is what sets it apart - it is nothing less than a global snapshot of humanity.

The project asked people all over the world - and in places where "media" is not as ubiquitous as in the West, the film's producers and editors sent cameras - to video record their lives on a specific day: July 24, 2010. The producers expected to receive perhaps 15,000 submissions; they got more than 80,000, a total of 4500 hours of images mundane and extraordinary.

Through a process of cataloging and culling, the editors present the finished film in 1:35. It is available for full viewing on YouTube, and is also now available on NetFlix or DVD.

Life in a Day is sponsored by YouTube, and took advantage of YouTube's massive video servers to collect and catalog the clips. The clips were shot by amateurs - ordinary people - using HandyCams and $100 flash memory cameras, iPhones, what have you. Some clips are grainy, poorly lit, jittery, out-of-focus - it doesn't matter. The content is so compelling in aggregate that the intercutting and juxtapositions become lyrical.

The structure is loose, the themes broad, and there is no plot. The entire film may be summed up as "Life happens." There are funny moments and inspiring ones, profound moments and tragic ones. It's like, you know, life.

I picked out one particular contribution, about an 11-year-old shoeshine boy from Peru. His story is woven through other stories. He appears briefly, we move on to something else, and just about when we have forgotten him, he reappears, framed in his doorway holding his green and white laptop, supplied by the One Laptop Per Child project. This boy lives in conditions the poorest Americans would consider appalling. He works because his mother has died and he must help support his family, and he finds both refuge and escape through Wikipedia. "Wikipedia has everything," he says. "It has stories, and history, and maths, and science." He uses his laptop to play games, to draw, to write stories. "It is my friend," he says, "like my sister."

We leave him, believing - or wanting to believe - he will make it, will succeed, escape the tragic conditions life has dealt him. His worldliness and joie de vive, despite his core sadness, seem well beyond his years, and too strong to fail. That is, if disease or hunger or street thieves after the coins in his pocket don't do him in first. He has connected to the larger world, a world he might never even know of if not for the OLPC and Wikipedia. We in higher education can bemoan Wikipedia's "amateur" nature all we like, but for millions, and soon billions of people, it may be the closest they ever get to a library, or a school.

The internet is not for Americans only, or for the well-to-do. It's not just shopping and friending and World of Warcraft. It is a lifeline, a potential rescue out of desperate conditions, perhaps the only chance millions upon millions will ever have.

It is incumbent upon us - the internet wealthy - to not just focus on how the web can entertain us, or make us richer, but how it can make the world better. Life in a Day helps us remember that, and more.
