https://padlet.com/astorch2/lzihytef6pj1 At school, Ender and his fellow students use “desks” that seem to be similar to the iPads that are becoming more and more common in schools today—something every student has that you can type on, send emails from, and draw on with your finger. This book was first published in 1985, over twenty years before Apple introduced the iPad. How could Orson Scott Card have predicted something as revolutionary as tablet computers at a time when laptops hadn’t been invented and having a personal computer at home was unheard of for most people? What does this tell us about the way technology and science fiction stories can influence one another? en-us 2018-02-12 17:46:18 UTC 2023-10-10 16:23:50 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/astorch2/lzihytef6pj1/wish/355779176 I think that the author was attempting to make a guess at what the future will look like for technology and humans in general. He did a relatively good job with this as he correctly guessed what the future of tech will be like for us during the 21st century.

Science fiction can inspire people to do more and create the things that they read. It can also influence people to create something that can impact the whole world, and people will continue to have more advancements in technology since its a big impact already. ]]> 2019-05-01 13:45:10 UTC https://padlet.com/astorch2/lzihytef6pj1/wish/355782792 https://padlet.com/astorch2/lzihytef6pj1/wish/355783720 New tech means more acoustic guitar “creative” authors so asentuly the conversation went “wouldn’t be cool if you could use your finger as a mouse”]]> 2019-05-01 13:47:06 UTC https://padlet.com/astorch2/lzihytef6pj1/wish/355783720 https://padlet.com/astorch2/lzihytef6pj1/wish/355784463 He could predict ipads/tablets like we are predicting driving cars, and flying delivery.
