"Technology offers many interesting ways for people in this world to communicate. It is a great asset, especially for people who live far away from each other. Technology is helpful in helping with school work and for jobs. I liked reading the diversity in this article, dealing with both the positive and negative sides to certain types of technology. The article explains how too much TV can be harmful to a family and their opportunity to connect and be together. The internet can be monitored by parents, so that it is safe for children to use, and learn from."

Hey Deena,
ReplyDeleteGreat job. I think that this would be a good assignment. I am having trouble finding why the first part would be relevant to the class. But, I do think it is an important point!
That video is pretty cool! I had no idea about most of the statistics that were mentioned.
