    Technology, especially smartphones, has played a key role in encouraging connectivity between people all over the world. Snapchat, Facebook, and instagram allows us to keep in touch with our friends and family (Document 1). Never before in human history have we had this level of connectedness with others. Smartphones also allow us to have answers to any question we might have, which gives us the opportunity to transcend the boundaries of what we previously believed conversations to be and talk about the real issues; what we make of these facts (Document 6).

  • The Extended Mind Analysis

    1425 Words  | 6 Pages

    I would like to state that before I make my stance on the question that I will be addressing in my essay as a response to  Andy Clark and David Chalmers’ “The Extended Mind”, that I am simply expressing my own personal and conceptual opinions on whether the authors provide persuasive grounds to believe that our mental states and processes can extend beyond our brain and body into the technological environment, in which case my answer is yes, I think they do. I realize that the latter is also just as reasonable, as I have no real or physical proof of a technologically extended mind myself other than what I personally believe in, so though I think a good persuasive argument can implant the seeds of a new idea in ones mind, solid proof works more

    As I engage this unit’s Read and Attend assignments, I find that my understanding of plagiarism is not as fully developed as I had previously thought. Our Unit 3 Attend assignment shares that “in a general sense plagiarism may be caused by carelessness” and these circumstances frequently precipitate the lack of care required while writing (Bethel University, 2014, p. 11). The academic integrity tutorial provided additional information which I found valuable as well. Common themes within each unit assignment provide strands of continuity, while assisting with a more comprehensive understanding. It is my opinion, the type of plagiarism that is hardest for me to avoid is “plagiaphrasing”, also known as “lazy paraphrasing” (Bethel University, 2014, p. 12).

    Too much screen use induces less communication between people and more time spent using technology. Technology used in our society in the same way. Sometimes people use television to forget about a hard time at work, others using phones in public, so they don’t have to interact with other people. “Little by little, technology has become an integral part of the way that people communicate with one another and has increasingly taken the place of face-to-face communication. Due to the rapid expansion of technology, many individuals fear that people may be too immersed in this digital world and not present enough in the real world,”.
