As I was reading “The New Literacy” article it really made me start to think about how the technology that I use in my everyday life outside of school could help me in school. The article mentioned that before the internet came once you left school you would never right another paragraph. I have a hard time believing this is true because when you fill out a job application you have to put things such as your experience. Another point in the article that stuck out and made me question was that through the media that we have today it has given kids the chance to long papers that were complex while also making them work together. This article really got me thinking.
As I was watching “The Machines Are Us/ing Us” I found it interesting how we are the ones that have to store all the information on the web. This video really got me thinking about how we really do have to start rethinking copyright. My question is if you copyright means that it is yours and no one can copy or reproduce the product without talking to you yet anybody can change information on the web then is there really a copyright for the web? This is connected to the world because everyday teachers use a computer, everyday teachers use phones. We use the machines all the time. This article got me thinking about the machines we use daily and how much we use them.
