Technology

This week I reflected on how much power gives all of us, we have so much information at out fingertips. the internet is rich with information it anyone is capable of learning everything. prior to these skills were harder to be introduced to, information spread slow, but people were less distracted. it can be easy to get paralysis from having so many options at all times.

Week 5- job

 This week by doing the job research assignment I started to realize the things I value in a workplace and work environment. I care more about my health and body than how much money I make, you only get one body but there is plenty of money in the world.

I also realized that how important it is going to be to be organized going forward, in my education and in my future career.

Universal design week 7

 This week through watching the videos and lecture I have realized the importance of universal design and making things as easy as possible to use for everyone, even if people speak different languages technology can be universal and speak to everybody.  This possible through visual cues most notably, doesn’t matter where you are from or what word you use to describe something if there is s visual reference for others to refer to.

In this case it means out soft skills as a society are starting to lack because of our reliance on technology. Certain elements of tasks get lost when creating new advancements but on doing so some of the enjoyment goes as well. I see it as a constant give and take between doing things naturally vs doing things with technological help. We may save time but lose some satisfaction in the process.
