The first thing I want to change, after reviewing my paper, is the way I finish my paper. As of right now, I finish with a paragraph about how it is not technology that is the problem, but rather the people that are using it. This is after my whole paper argues that technology is bad. I want to add another paragraph on to the end of my paper where I describe what the point of my paper is. If…
In my first paper, I wrote about how emerging adults need to grow up and stop relying on their parents. I was against emerging adulthood being implemented as a life stage within our society. In my podcast, I asked Maggie Steele about the five milestones in life, and what she thought about them. She described the lessons that people learn from each milestone and talked about how they are important. This is very similar to what I said in my…
The article that I chose to use is Addiction to Modern Technology: What Science Says. This article was published on August 2, 2017, so the information is recent. It was published on Elsevier, a science website that is designed to “help you progress science, advance healthcare and improve performance,” so the intent of this article is to put out correct and up to date science information. The authors, Michael Osuch and Steven Turner, both have degrees the sciences from accredited…
I think this whole thing is crazy. Look at the picture. Those people received his email, and did exactly what he said. They were prompt about, taking their new formation in just 2 minutes. They risked getting in trouble with the police, and listened to someone whom they did not know, simply because they wanted attention. What is wrong with these people? Also, I think it is insane that other people tried to imitate this experiment, and even asked Wasik…
. We can now connect with people all over the world to get opportunity that we did not have in the past. As King says, “A teenager today with a mobile phone can access information quicker than the president of the United States could 15 years ago” (King). The amount of information that we are able to store and access with because of the internet and technology is tremendous. We are also now able to pay for things without having…
I notice that I use a lot of point words to connect one sentence, to another that preceded it. I also repeat important terms. For example, technology, distraction, relationships, and other terms that are important to my thesis and to my claims. I use a variety of all of the devices that are mentioned throughout my piece, but tend to use point terms more frequently. There were not any passages that were hard to read due to a lack of…
I am going to argue that rather than either attention or distraction is beneficial, a combination of both is what is best. I will discuss how too much distraction from technology can diminish social interaction, intelligence, and quality of life. I will also discuss how too much distraction can get in the way of having any motivation or drive to do anything. Lastly, I will discuss the reality of moving our society away from technology, and the benefits that technology…
