Final Post: Reflection on this class

For my final blog post I felt it would be a good way to wrap things up by just giving a little overview on my thoughts of the class.

I think that this class should be taught to people that are in any major. I think that the things that we learn here are much more important than two thirds of my other classes. The primary thing that this class has taught me that I believe any other student should learn is how technology affect our lives. As a DTC student this is pretty much what we deal with every day. We are learning how to deal with this in our own right and how to manipulate it to our own advantage as well as others. Tech is so pervasive that it has become essentially invisible to us. Taking this class allows us to get off from our smart phones high horses or look down from our Macbook Pro pedestals and realize that we are waaaay to dependent on things that aren't even necessary. A respect is important to instill in people for the technology that surrounds us. I feel that this class has done that, as well as heightened my awareness of how we communicate (obviously more so through technology)

By the way this is a great little bit by Louis CK...
