1. Discuss what the main idea of the video is? The main idea of the video is to inform the audience about how different the generation we are living in today is from the past generations.
2. Do you see yourself as past oriented or future oriented? Why?
I see myself more future oriented than past oriented. Because I look more to the future than the past because I change what I did in the past and go to the future.
3. Do you agree or disagree with the speaker in the video? Explain why?
I agree with the speaker of this video because when I think about the things he said it made me realize that our generations are both improving but loosing many values at the same time. He mentions how American families are decreasing the time they spend together, and how teenagers are dropping out of school because they get upset when they cant control everything like in videogames and society continues to fall apart due to our dependence on technology.
4. Do you agree with the speaker's view that young adults' minds are being "digitally rewired"? Explain your answer.
No because we have the choice to use technology or not because we can choose when to quit.
5. Why does the narrator in the video argue that young people dislike a single-function device such as a wristwatch?
Young people dislike single-function devices such as the wristwatch because we are used to utilizing devices that are multi-functional and make our life a lot easier. We are too lazy to even do a simple thing such as figuring out the time on a watch that is not digital. this is upsetting because we want everything to be easy and done with no effort.
1. Why did Sir Tim Berner's Lee decide to make the World Wide Web free when he created it at CERN?
He decided to make the World Wide Web free when he created it so that every single person around the world could have access to it. The fact that it is available to everyone makes us free and communicated with other people. If they charged for the Web many people would not be able to use it and be informed about the happenings in the world.
2. What are the benefits of having "web addresses," an idea that Sir Tim Berner's Lee created?
The benefits of having Web Addresses are that it is easier for a person to access the desired web page. If we had to use the code it would be a lot of more work having to memorize each code for the desired web page. 3. How does the World Wide Web allow people from all over the world to communicate?
It allows everyone all over the world to communicate because by using the internet we can communicate with people that are all around the world. Well we use facebook to communicate with other people around the world.
4. Why is it important to link information? What are the benefits of having instant access to information?
It is important to link information because we are able to access it more quickly without having to look for the web page again. The benefits of having access to the information is that it encourages people to do it due to the fact that it takes less effort.

ReplyDeleteI do agree with the fact that we are being too "digitally rewired". He does not prove why we are not being "digitally wired" therefore, we are getting to distracted, we are not socializing properly, we aren't spending too much time with our friends and family, and we change our behavior when we spend too much time using technology!!!!

ReplyDeleteI agree with most of Natalia's answers because they are similar to mine and she thinks similarily. For example we are both past and future oriented and mainly for the same reasons. She thinks of the answers in a different point of view than others though.
I disagree with Andres's opinion of digitally rewired teenagers. I believe that once that they are "addicted" to technology, such as the computer, videogames, and cellphones, it is really hard for them to stop. It is like a drug for them. However, that does not mean they cannot stop. They can, but it would be very difficult.
