Then, in each sub topics we would have a small discussion about some issues. Well, we hope to see you all in tomorrow and maintain a good discussion.
Thank you for your attendion.
Thanks you for your presentation and it is the last one of this course. From your presenation, I would like to raise the question again here of which human associate with technology is a progression or regression. In my opinion, technology undoubtedly bring convinence to human, such as the smart phone or internet make us closely connect with our friends. Moreover, the artificial arms can help the handicapes to start their new lives as well. In addition, if there was no technology developed, birth control cannot be controlled and extra social problems may occur. However, I do agree that mobile phone make us remember less telephone numbers and may lead us not well to manipulate our brains. In reality, most of the things have dilemmas, it is always hard to state one incident or object is good or bad and right or wrong. We might merely do this by comparing though.
ReplyDeleteThe presentation was very stimulating, the examples you used in your presentation especially the ‘non-human live concert’ example. It had create a lot of discussion and deep thinking of the personal influence like emotion, sensational feeling that can be bought by a machine(technology) or even just a moving projection.
ReplyDeleteThe last discussion in your presentation which is about whether the development of technology is a revolution, evolution or degeneration to human being is also worth to discuss.
At the end, thanks for your presentation, the presentation is really good, well choose of the examples and the concepts had explained very clear.
This topic is really interesting. Because of the improvement of technology, there may create some new species. Just like what i have seen in "Star Wars" when i was young. In that movies, there are many unknown species which different human. In the future, it may come truth.
ReplyDeleteBut there is another problem. Are the new species is a kind if species? If yes, does it means human are able to create new species?
It is a discussable topic in this new era. Also thank you for your presentation. It is really clear and interesting.
