Prepare: As you prepare to write your answer to the discussion prompt, review Modules 1 and 2 in your online textbook and watch the video above.
Reflect: Consider how the digital revolution has changed your life. Try to think of unique innovations other than the common cell phone, laptop, or microwave oven. Reviewing what your classmates have already posted will help you avoid redundant choices. The more unique your response, the more conversation you will generate! For the second discussion, technology is constantly evolving, so think about how technological advances in the future can impact your life. What are some benefits and drawbacks to innovative technology?

• Describe at least two significant technological advances you have witnessed over your lifetime. Explain how they made your life easier or more difficult.
• The internet is rich with ideas for futuristic innovations in technology. Some popular websites that share innovative ideas are futureforall.org, futurism.com, or itechfuture.com. From these or any other website(s) you choose to review, identify and describe (in your own words) two futuristic ideas that interest you. Discuss one benefit and one potential drawback of each idea.
Your initial post should be at least 250 words in length.
Respond to Peers: Review your classmates posts, and respond to at least two of your peers by Day 7. Compare and contrast your viewpoints on how technology has influenced your past. Review the technological innovations your peer described, and explain how their ideas may affect your life. Each peer response should be a minimum of 75 words.
