My name is Alicia and I am studying a
Bachelor of Primary Education at Australian Catholic University. This
reflective blog is associated with the COMM140 unit of semester 2.
I have created this reflective blog to
express my personal views on technology and the impact technology has on
humankind. I will also explore what ethical issues can arise surrounding the
use of technology through driving questions that have been posed throughout the
lectures and tutorials of the subject COMM140.
In my first blog post “Do Digital Native’s
exist?” I explore the difference between a Digital Native and Digital Immigrant
and outline the key differences between the two.
In my second blog post “To tweet or not to
tweet” I explore the positive and negative impact that tweeting can have on
your digital footprint. I also discuss the importance of thinking before you
tweet and give examples of “good” and “bad” tweets.
In my third blog “An understanding of how
technologies impact on the way humans communicate and the ethical issues that
surround these changes” I explore a timeline of communication tools that were
used in the 1900’s compared to the 21st century and what ethical
issues can arise through current technology and communication between people.
In my fourth blog, with constructive
criticism from my peers I will rewrite either my 1st or 2nd
question with alterations based on their ideas.
In my fifth blog I will show you two of my
peers blogs with a paragraph of constructive criticism from myself.
All of the opinions stated in my reflective
blog are my own, unless cited otherwise!
Happy reading!
