Yes, modeling the old way of building relationships is key!

How many of us start text messages with a greeting?

So then is it that we need to help students realize and determine was can and should be critically assessed and what can be "breezed through?"

I agree that technology is very necessary in our fast pace lives however we are a generation that has been exposed to life with and without technology. Because if this, we can utilize technology when appropriate and still have meaningful conversations .  Younger adults have not been exposed to this and do not have the skills for those meaningful conversations.

I wonder if there will be a breaking point...will society eventually swing the other way?

Listening to the inner circle conversation, all did great, but I personally don't want to live in a society that needs "high hustle and bustle" with instant information.  We make society the way we want it, and I refuse to engage in this "new way."  My texts are too long, email too long, this comment too long...because I want it meaningful to me!

Technology seems to be running the show in so many ways.  When computers first came on the scene, the message was that everything would be done so much faster.  We thought that meant our jobs would be easier and we would have more free time.  Unfortunately, the opposite is true -- we have less time, things are going faster and faster, and because we can do it all faster, we are expected to do more and more.  Crazy rate race we call life!  (P.S.  I'm really still a happy person ... just tired!)

Is technology preparing our students for real life? Para. 4

How has technology changed us and our ideas about education?

The topic of kids in restaurants on their phones was brought up....I think this is modeled through their parents. If you look at tables at restaurants today, I see more adults on their phones not engaging in conversations.

# data[].attributes.body
How do we turn back the tide and retrain brains ... especially young brains ... that have grown up in the digital world of quick sound bites of information instead of acquiring deeper understanding of topics through reading and research?  It's more than just what they are interested in ... doesn't the repetitive nature of technology use actual retrain the brain to function in a certain way?

# data[].attributes.body
It may come down to a generational gap. Being that we did not grow up with technology we perceive students constantly on their cells and social media as rude and they perceive it as the way of life.

# data[].attributes.body
In order for our students to learn what meaningful relationships are, we must model that for them. Unfortunately, many of our students are not getting these lessons at home.

Why is it that so many people, adults and children alike, believe that “Reading just a headline and the first sentences of a story...” is enough to be able to form an opinion on the topic? (Paragraph 6).

# data[].attributes.body
In paragraph 3 the article states information is instantaneous,  but I believe it is actually making us less informed, and certainly less thoughtful and introspective...  maybe we need to teach our students to navigate the information and technology to be informed??

# data[].attributes.body
Paragraph 11-Has technology kept people from communicating in a meaningful way?

# data[].attributes.body
Paragraph 10 seems to sum it all up with the last line that reads "we count on our phones to navigate passageways on the road and in our lives." We rely to heavily on technology for the simplest things and communicate in person a lot less in person.

# data[].attributes.body
In P4, it states college students know trivial facts but little substantive info about topics. It’s the same with students in my class. They know a lot, but cannot apply or analyze or answer questions about that information. My question: what more can we do to help guide students to be able to apply their information to make their knowledge of it meaningful?

# data[].attributes.body
Enjoyed the dialogue. Wish we had more time for engagement.

Technology has taken away the need to use critical thinking skills. Some say it has dumbing us down. Teaching children to take the easy way out but not creating a means for thinking or common sense. How do we take this technology and turn it around for the sake of our future.

Paragraph 9 "...we have become a nation of one-liners."

# data[].attributes.body
In paragraph 3, there is reference to information given instantaneously with less thought or insight.  Why aren't we being thoughtful in interpreting the importance of the information?

# data[].attributes.body
Paragraph 7: Why to people lack patience and interest in reading full length articles?

# data[].attributes.body
Technology can be a new development we fight or embrace ... does our approach makes all the difference?

# data[].attributes.body
In paragraph 7, the author claims that many of us have lost the "patience" to read full articles.  While I do tend to agree, I feel like technology has ramped up the pace of all of our lives, leaving us exhausted at the end of a long day, with little (if any) time left for actual reading.

How can we start to have deeper, more meaningful thinking & communication?
Par. 13 “We need to detach a bit from the false promise me of a technology savvy world. Try going a couple hourswithout  your phone.”

Today many are aware of news headlines, but their knowledge is shallow.

Students aren't the only ones reading less. We all are.  P7 As teachers do we often feel societal changes are because  newer generation?

Paragraph 4:  reminded me of something I heard before...(college students) know very little about many things, and then they learn less and less about more and more until they know practically nothing about everything.

Paragraph 6 brings up headlines. Pallmeyer states that our society just reads the headline and doesn’t feel the need to read the article. I see this ALL THE TIME on social media through the comment section of news posts.

"We must have the strength to take charge of our lives." Paragraph 13, I am a millennial and I feel it is sad we have to be told this. Noone thinks anymore, and I see it in my classroom, does anyone else feel this way?
