- Do you agree with the Ted Talk? Why or why not? Will you change any of your current behaviors as a result of listening to this talk? What impact do you think this digital age will have on society in the future? https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pxh835faE3rtWhkQPS4UurXcDid44jZsJuLtZ3C6ZPQ/edit?usp=sharing
This is a topic that once it was brought to my attention, I defiantly see this problem everywhere. Trying to get the attention of my friends or family while they are glued to their devices is hard. My family doesn't spend a ton of time face to face, we spend time Snap-chatting each other in the same room, or sharing Instagram posts that we think the other will like. After hearing this, I think that I'm going to make a more conscious effort to spend face to face time, especially with my sisters, before I go to college. I think that spending time that doesn't involve technology creates richer and more memorable experiences to remember together. I think this will have a negative impact on society. The fact that technology is taking away from real and personable connections is really sad. I think that eventually meeting new people in real life will be something that is just not desirable anymore, and the relationships that we have built are not deep ones.
