In the second paragraph Bauerlein talks about how "teens and young adults have absorbed digital tools into their daily lives like no other age group."  He thinks that we "are no more learned or skillful than their predecessors, no more knowledgeable, fluent, up-to-date, or inquisitive, except in the materials of youth culture." Mark Bauelein thinks that even though we are skillful in a modern context we aren't kept up with history, economics, science, current events, ect. (real world things outside our technology). In the third paragraph Bauerlein states that "Never have opprotunities for education, learning, political action, and cultural activity been greater. All the ingredients for making an informed and intelligent citizen are in place. But it hasn't happened." He is right that all these opportunities for us young adults to become great are all in one place, but I think he is wrong on the last sentence. Even though our generation is technology needy, we do use it to our advantage, we can do great things with technology, things that can change the world and young adults have done that.

Technology has made less negative impacts than positive impacts because its easy access to new information and makes it easier for us to learn they reading books since its more entertaining.

I think technology has made a positive impact and making us smarter because of all the benifits and information it brings us.

In the tenth paragraph Alison Gopnik says "Many parents worry that “screen time” will impair children’s development, but recent
research suggests that most of the common fears about children and screens are unfounded." She uses the research of others to make that statement. Paragraph 11 talks about "Part of the reason may be that adult brains require a lot of focus and effort to learn something new, while children’s brains are designed to master new environments spontaneously." One reason for parents to not like technology because they have heard time learning how to use it since its harder to learn things when you are older. That is why they may find it disturbing or annoying.

In paragraph 10 Alison stated "Many parents worry that "screen time" will impair children's development." The author thinks that the screen time will weaken the minds of our children. Alison says that "looking at screens that emit blue light before bed really does disrupt sleep." She also says "those hours can be like the marvellous ones that Augie and I spent together bee watching, or they can be violent or mindless." The author does have evidence that suggest otherwise. " but recent research suggest that most of the common fears of children and screens are unfounded." The author thinks that it can go both ways it can be spend in a good way or a mindless way.

Mark Bauerlein talks about how kids learn better with tools and technology he says "teachers and school districts still push and encourage students to utilize digital tools and rely on them." Schools have put more money on buying digital media for kids to learn. He also says Most education classes I have enrolled in promote the utilization of computers, projectors, DVD’s, and SMART Boards. Most schools are equipping themselves with these items and investing many dollars on their installation within all classrooms." They do this because they know the new generations learns better with technology. If these technology makes us dumber why invent it in the first place.

In the article  by Mark Bauerlein he explains how the new generation doesn't use technology's full potential. In paragraph two Bauerlein says"while the world has provided them extraordinary chances to gain knowledge and improve their reading/writing skills, not to mention offering financial incentives to do so, young Americans today are no more learned or skillful than their predecessors." He later says "Teen images and songs, hot gossip and games, and youth-to-youth communications no longer limited by time or space wrap them up in a generational cocoon reaching all the way into their bedrooms." By saying this he shows that although technology can be used for greater knowledge teens prefer to use it for a source of entertainment.

I believe that technology has made a lot of positive impacts, but it does come with some downsides.

The graph shows that people spend alot of time on their phones.It shows what they use their phone for and how long. The graph shows that our little phone is very helpful but we spend too much time on it.

I think technology has had both negative and positive impacts on the human intelligence. But if I had to choose one I'd pick positive impact because we are able to be educated by people globally.

The graph claims that people spend a lot of time on our phones doing multiple activities. "Searching/browsing the web, using an app, placed a call, Checked for notifications, checked or received a call, sent a message, text, or email, took a photo or email. 89% of people have done at least one of these activities."

In Source 1 Mark Bauerlein explains how technology has changed newer generations and even though they are aware of worldly happenings they forget about the past too easily. In paragraph 4 Bauerlein acknowledges how teens are more concerned with the social scene around them and less concerned about history or books. He says "Yes young Americans are energetic, ambitious, enterprising, and good, but their talents and interests and money thrust them not to books and ideas and history and civics, but into a whole other realm and other consciousness." Bauerlein respects the younger generation but still has critiques.

Alison Gopnik explains in "Is "screen time" Dangerous for children?" how have technology is a big help to all generations. Gopnik gives us her personal experience with technology helping her and her grandson out. Gopnik and her grandson, Augie were in the garden when Augie asked how bees make honey. She didn't know so she googled it. Many videos came up to educate them and they both learn so much about bees and honey. In further detail she then explains how yes going on your phone can effect your sleep, but technology is so much more than that and provides so much to all of us.

The graph in Source 8 provides us with information on how Americans in 2014 use their phones, and what type of things they are using. Although the graph could use an update it shows how most of us use our cell phones for communication. To be exact 5 out of 8 of the x-axis columns have to do with communication, place a call, check for alerts, receiving a call, sending a message or email, and reading a message.
