Week 10 November 29 - December 6

This week we read about Wireless Wearables, that is, wearing clothes that have high-tech devices in them which allow us to connect to the Internet, email, and so on.

Some people say high-tech devices are interfering with traditional face-to-face interaction. Do you agree? Why or why not? Do you think society will benefit from the introduction of high-tech wearable devices? Why or why not?

I look forward to reading your thoughts and opinions.

Week 9 Question of November 22 - November 29

This week we read about the use of cell phones to help a small rickshaw business in Cambodia.

Do you think the invention of the cell phone is a good thing for society? Explain your answer with examples.

I look forward to reading your thoughts. Please respond to others too. ;)
