Technology and communication.

watch Sherry Turkle’s Ted Talk, “Alone Together” and reflect on how communication technologies (texting, email, social networking, instagram, etc.) have influenced your various personal relationships (acquaintances, friendships, romantic relationships, and family). Then, create a discussion thread answering the following questions: What is the effect of technology (negative, positive, or just ‘different’) on families, friendships, intimate relationships, and professional relationships? Turkle suggests that the digital world can’t offer the same opportunities and connections as F2F relationships can. Do you agree or disagree- why?
