Digital Reflection 4

Technology plays an incredibly prominent role in my literate life. In fact, I rarely ever use a pencil and paper to write anymore. Yes, I still take notes in some classes. However, most of my schoolwork cannot be done without some form of technology. I complete majority of my assignments on my computer. In fact, I submit majority of my assignments on my computer as well. If I need to get in touch with someone, it's usually through emails or text messages which again, is through technology. As I've gotten older, I've been steered towards technology. Many professors don't want a hard copy of something. Many employers want to see that you know how to use excel, word, and can just straight up type quickly. I've been exposed to computers and phones since I was in middle school. Now, kids are exposed to phones, computers, and iPads before they can even walk. Technology is the newest form of learning. Many people don't even buy hard copies of textbooks anymore because they download the book online. I remember when I was little, I would read a book before bed. If I was lucky, I could watch TV or play on the computer. Now, whenever I babysit kids, they entertain themselves through their phones or their iPads. Even when they have friends over, they're still playing on their phones and their iPads. Technology has indeed taken over in almost every aspect of my literate life and it's only continuing to do so for the future generations. 

For my image, I attached a screenshot of my canvas page because this goes to show how prominent technology is in my everyday life, especially my academics.
