Technology and Communication - Blog 3



As talked about with our video interaction with Russia technology is becoming a bigger contributor to education. Beginning able to interact with professors online has created more of a convenience for students but also a setback to getting to know your professors. Online classes are becoming more common since it creates such a flexible schedule. Our videos with Russia provide a great way to communicate that allows for instant answers and a more personal level of interaction since we have face to face interaction via the web. In high school there are some classes that you can do this with other towns for taking a course so it’s not only effecting colleges but high schools as well, allowing students to further their education. Besides education, technology has majorly affected how social groups interact and even more so individuals of social groups greatly. I am providing an article that talks about the pros and cons of technology and relationships. I find this very interesting since it correlates to a series on Mtv called Catfish about relationships created online. I also provided a trailer to Catfish as an example. I think this is becoming more of a norm between social groups and shows just how much technology effects interaction these days between friends, family, and now finding relationships.
