Digital Nation analysis 2

After getting to see more of the film Digital Nation it was interesting t get to see new view points on todays youth and there dependence on technology. As young people submerge themselves deeper and deeper into technology they will enviably become more dependent on the technologies that they adapt too. As the film went on it displayed how some people are realy embracing the new technology and are applying it to new teaching styles. Some schools have even gone fully digital, and teaches kids using only gaming and technology to motivate these students.

They encouraged the idea that people have to adapt to technology and use it to help us in the future, the criticize how older generations judge the new generations dependence on media, and technology. In reality they may be the ones that are left behind, due to a changing world, and they are resistant to accept that.

Digital Nation Analysis

what i have seen so far in the documentary Digital Nation has been very interesting. Up until the past few years ago i did not think much about how all of the technology in my life, ended up affecting my life. this film talked allot about the results of recent changes in the way that youth think and communicate, also how they are inevitably overloading themseves with media.

I think that the message of the film so far is quite interesting and thought provoking for me so far. the information that the narrator presents is quite valid all the i am not 100% positive that i agree with what they have to say. i am anxious to see what the film has to say in the following segments, to see f the viewpoints of the presenter change or my opinion changes.

i tried to show its progression over time and how the message is carried out.
