Technology

Linda, I completely agree with you that it is a very difficult task in making students realize what technology really encompassed. It is true that they turn to their phone whenever they think about technology, it's what they know best. We had a similar discussion the other day in class when we were talking about inventions and innovations. I had the same exact reaction when I showed the wheel as a technological advancement. It is rather difficult to drill this piece of information in their head because they simply have a more simple way of looking at these inventions.
