This week so far has been really great for me as I have already turned in my analysis draft and received feedback on my draft. I going to take the next couple of days polishing it up to the best of my abilities. One thing that has not been going well is my studying for my psychology med term which I am slacking on due to bad time management. I have to take some time for studying if I want to get a good grade in my psychology midterm. Other than that things have been going pretty well as I am currently in the motion of almost finishing up the majority of my high-grade assignments.
Many might consider technology to be evil in a way where it can ruin our lives but those people still make use of technology to survive. With the increased number of phones in everybody’s hands, it is no surprise that technology in this day and age is more than just necessary rather it is needed for the world to function. This is talked about in the excerpt THE MORE DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY, THE BETTER By Genesea M. Carter, and Aurora Matzke. Where they talk about how technology has become part of our instinct. As it states in the reading if somebody is in danger they always look for their phone so they can call the police. Throughout history, we have shown incredible progress when it comes to technology. When people’s brains can coordinate with their hands they can make amazing tools and equipment.
Although there are some who might take advantage of it and utilize it in the wrong way at the end of the day, technology is what makes out lives easier. Especially in classrooms where students come to learn but are distracted by what is on their phone. Students make use of social media to the biggest extent where they are addicted to it which is not great but social media is also used to consume news from all around the world. Genesea and Aurora really talk about how technology is utilized in school and how it affects the student’s life. As they think that technology should be regulated better but still be used as it offers many thing elements like research and creativity so the student has more freedom in their ways of thinking. As they clearly express using simple logic how technology is going to be in the student’s future which was not the case for the authors. Genesea and Aurora had to use typewriters to write papers and did not possess phones either. This shows the overall invocation of humans intelligence which will continue on to the future of this earth.
