Information Processing at Subway New York City Literature Review Plenty of research exists concerning information consumption of commuters at the New York subway. The study by Lopatovska et al. (2011) reveals that the majority of the passengers depended on several devices of communication for listening to music, typing, and reading. Some, however, did not actively take part in the usage of information devices (Lopatovska et al. 2011). According to these researchers, the reason commuters use mobile devices is for entertainment and productive use, like communicating with other people. The research by Brossard, Abed, Kolski & Uster (2009) indicates that the research question is a relevant one to study. The reason these researchers provide is that the availability of portable communication gadgets empowers commuters with access to a lot of information at any time. Thus, there is a need to ensure that users find access to relevant information (Brossard, Abed, Kolski & Uster, 2009). In the research question, the issue of crowdedness and how it affects commuters is raised. Ma and his colleagues, in their investigation, answers this question by stating…

Art as a Subject for the Elite For centuries the subject of art history has been preserved mainly for the elite and aristocrats. This is because its abstract language suited and pleased the particular tastes of the upper-class and received its exclusive approval from the elite class and its institutions (Starkey, 2013). For centuries, the validity of art creations has been determined by critics, academics, art administrators, dealers, and curators, all of whom belong to the wealthy and elite class. (Pell, 2016). But while the art industry has become a multi-million industry, admitting people of all ages and social backgrounds, things have not changed much. The exclusivity of the subject and its lack of applicability, especially in a graduate-skill driven world, have once again made arts a preserve of the elite (Starkey, 2013). In England, the government revised the high school curriculum in 2015, removing most of the art subjects in favor of English, Maths, Sciences, modern languages, geography, and history, which are regarded ‘core academic subjects’ (Annetts, 2018).
