I agree that you can misunderstand people because you can´t see emotions through text.

# data[].attributes.body
Students rather be on their phones talking than face to face.

# data[].attributes.body
Adam- Misunderstanding people is a big issue.

# data[].attributes.body
From Adam's claim: I agree that people are misunderstood more often and communication skills are not as advanced due to the increase of technology.

# data[].attributes.body
Although I argued that technology helps with communication, I agree with Adam when he said that technology distracts people from real life conversations and people rely on texting too much.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with what Jenna, because everyone is on their phone which causes that to effect a learning experience, and effects grades

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Jenna because whenever people are hanging out they don't talk as much and they all just sit together and go on their phones.

# data[].attributes.body
Technology is destroying communication through society, and you have a harder time talking in a big crowd, unlike having the texting safety blanket.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with what Adam said. Technology is ruining many traditional forms of communications

# data[].attributes.body
How does it make it harder to communicate face to face?

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Adam, Adam has a good point, making a clear claim that communication is key, and lack of it can cause problems in everyday society.

# data[].attributes.body
Can using communication technology actually help prepare a person for face to face interactions?

# data[].attributes.body
Technology is ruining kids communication skills making it difficult reading emotion, weakening conversation abilities, and shortening their attention spans.

# data[].attributes.body
Why does talking over phone make it harder to have face to face conversations.

# data[].attributes.body
People talk so much on text when they're apart that even when they try to hold an actual conversation, everything becomes awkward.

# data[].attributes.body
couldn't phone calls be just as meaningful?

# data[].attributes.body
How can we improve communication skills among people who use their phone often?

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that conversations in person show more of how we are feeling.

# data[].attributes.body
Why is it so hard to talk face to face, and be more "bold" over text?

# data[].attributes.body
I agree wit Mackenzie because, if you don't have that person you need to help comfort you, how will you receive comfort through a virtual and most likely not a real commutative structure,

# data[].attributes.body
Isn't face timing over the phone almost the same as communicating in person?

# data[].attributes.body
are there some benefits from technology communication?

# data[].attributes.body
Isn't there a benefit to being more connected to the world via the internet?

# data[].attributes.body
some people are able to find their life long partner or friend online.

# data[].attributes.body
Technology is ruining kid's social development and personal development because they won't know how to talk to someone face to face.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that people can now hide away from the physical world with technology

# data[].attributes.body
A lot of people struggle to call someone on the phone.

# data[].attributes.body
I find it weird that it makes facial expressions harder to read.

# data[].attributes.body
Texting can be harmful because you can't tell the tone of someone's speech unless you are hearing them or seeing their facial expressions.

# data[].attributes.body
Why is there no emotion in the text?

# data[].attributes.body
What are the benefits to using technology?

# data[].attributes.body
Why do people take offenese when someone makes a joke?

# data[].attributes.body
Why is technology causing a drift among people?

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with the discussion. Technology takes away the traditional aspect of talking with people and expressing real emotion

# data[].attributes.body
Texting ruins communication more than face timing.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Adam because people take much offense to many different things, and you cannot see the facial expressions.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that technology leads to many misunderstandings because I have been in situations where I think someone is angry with me when really they're just joking but I can't tell what their tone is.

# data[].attributes.body
Technology does help in some places like Facetime(Milo)

# data[].attributes.body
Technology is helping bringing some certain groups of people together. Not all of it is bad, especially when your family is far away, and you are able to talk to them.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Dean that face timing can improve communication skills.

# data[].attributes.body
Face Time can help communicate directly to who you want to talk to, and although their not in the same location it is face to face.

# data[].attributes.body
sometimes people are unable to meet the person they want to talk to.

# data[].attributes.body
On the other side of the argument, a benefit from technology can be face time. You can interact with friends face to face.

# data[].attributes.body
Should people limit communication over text?

# data[].attributes.body
What about people who can't talk/hear or are otherwise impaired?

# data[].attributes.body
Is there a way to express tone or emotion through texts?

# data[].attributes.body
There are many beneficial and harmful effects of technology, but specifically to communication skills face to face, I think that technology is generally harmful.

# data[].attributes.body
You can misinterpret texts, and when times get rough, people tend to be more aggressive and bolder with what they say online than in real life due to consequences not truly appear within texting.

# data[].attributes.body
Technology, mostly facetiming is a very big thing that helps many different people connected, and boosting you're communication tools.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that face time is really beneficial to talk to someone when they aren't near you and you can't talk to them in person.

# data[].attributes.body
in cases where you can't physically meet someone wouldn't interacting through technology be a good thing?

# data[].attributes.body
How can texting all the time make people's social skills get worse?

# data[].attributes.body
What part does social media play in this?

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Niti that communication over social media can encourage cyber bullying.

# data[].attributes.body
Cyber-bullying is very dangerous

# data[].attributes.body
Is there a way we can change the way technology is being used today?

# data[].attributes.body
Now, almost a lot of babies and toddlers are using technology and that ruins their skills from a very young age.

# data[].attributes.body
How will technology affect the new generation?

# data[].attributes.body
Children are getting phones/devices earlier and earlier.

# data[].attributes.body
social media can help create or destroy depending on how a person thinks and kind of where they are mentally.

# data[].attributes.body
Children are being introduced to technology at progressively younger ages and it can have a negative effect on their overall health.

# data[].attributes.body
Cyber-bullying is a big real occurring issue, making people feel less happy, and making technology somewhere where they are trapped unlike where many people are able to free themselves.

# data[].attributes.body
Technology causes children to have shorter attention spans.

# data[].attributes.body
Nicole has a good point. Some real relationships start online and for socially awkward people it makes interacting easier.

# data[].attributes.body
If people are communicating all the time by texting or calls, why do their real life skills get worse?

# data[].attributes.body
Is there a way to make social media more friendly?

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Adam because talking in person is a needed skill because you still need to know how to talk to real people.

# data[].attributes.body
not everyone that is socially awkward are like that because of phones.

# data[].attributes.body
From Anthony's idea: I agree that we do not know how to react to awkward situations in person, and starting conversations online is much easier. This can be based on the person, so others are better at speaking in person.

# data[].attributes.body
Since technology can be both good and bad, it's best to have a little bit of online time and also some offline time spent socializing.

# data[].attributes.body
I actually got better at making conversations by texting one of my friends.

# data[].attributes.body
I find in some ways its easier to talk in text, but in others, in person, just because of how different each way of communication is; for example, its easier to text someone an image.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that it's easier to talk when you are in person rather than on a call or something.

# data[].attributes.body
Kenzie is right because it is easy to keep a conversation in person because you are with them and "you can point out something random and talk about it" but on text you run out of things to talk about.

# data[].attributes.body
Texting is safer for you when you are in an awkward situation, but it can also have consequences.

# data[].attributes.body
Technology has also brought about the rise of social media — an invaluable marketing tool for start-ups, small businesses, and even large corporations.

# data[].attributes.body
Online friends can teach you things you didn't know before.

# data[].attributes.body
Does technology affect people's communication skills differently? Does it depend on the person?

# data[].attributes.body
The ability to communicate directly with customers has led to better product testing and development that benefits both businesses and consumers and has improved our economy greatly.

# data[].attributes.body
Technology allows easy communication with people possibly across the world, and enables people to make friends they otherwise wouldn't have; for example, I have friends from Utah and North Carolina from meeting them on the hit game Roblox years ago.

# data[].attributes.body
It's easier to tell people you'll never actually meet stuff rather than tell someone in real life.

# data[].attributes.body
Social media makes it easy to keep in touch with people.

# data[].attributes.body
Is there ways that you can show your emotion over text?

# data[].attributes.body
Are social medias becoming more dangerous with cyber bullying, catfishing, fake profiles, etc.

# data[].attributes.body
You can meet people from everywhere all over the world, as the internet allows you to text and talk to people from foreign places. For example, Many social media apps are international in a sense that you could text a person from say, Germany and New Zealand at the same time.

# data[].attributes.body
What effect has social media had on depression and anxiety?

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with Niti because there have been many times where I feel like I am able to say a lot more online because it doesn't create as much of an awkward situation as if I were to say the same thing in person.

# data[].attributes.body
How bad do you think communication skills will get in the future?

# data[].attributes.body
Nicole has stated that young kids are being spoiled with technology.

# data[].attributes.body
Some adults cause bad habits in people our age or younger by giving children their phone to watch a movie or play games.

# data[].attributes.body
There good and bad aspects of the communication skills we use today.

# data[].attributes.body
I think if our generation learns how harmful technology can be in large amounts, we can help improve future generations.

# data[].attributes.body
Typing on a phone is a skill that you can get better at.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Texting and calling is technically communication.

# data[].attributes.body
You can communicate with people you never could without a phone.

# data[].attributes.body
Phones can be bad for future generations

# data[].attributes.body
Will communications skills keep getting worse?

# data[].attributes.body
Should we all move to mars so we can have a new society
