In the trials and tribulations of ENG 122-123 I have come to the realization that having two semesters of english make you understand the concept better and appreciate what english can do for you. there are on the other hand recommendations that I would like to make as someone who came through not expecting to do well. Do away with the thought that you are not good at english and…

Revision Plan: During the revision time I was able to see where my paper could use some touching up. One plan for my revision is to definitely add more of Kelley’s influence into the paper so I can have two scholars plus my own thoughts out on paper. My second plan is to make sure that the flow of the paper will work after I have added the Kelley quotes…

I do agree with Turkle that we do Love the objects we think with, and this is because they help us. They help us surpass our goals and achieve things we never thought we could achieve. Like a doctor for example if they didn’t have the equipment they needed people would still be dying at age 50 or sooner. The idea of love does confuse me though I can personally…

Passages you understand and why. There is a passage that talks about how people love an animal why can’t they love the web. I can understand how people come to love the internet because it is a useful tool to use if you are trying to search or get information quick. The internet can be a useful tool or it can be dangerous because you can get lost. Passages that…

Consider page 5, 2nd and 3rd full para: Do you share Kelley’s agony when you are stripped of the internet?  Do you feel “amputated”?  Lost?  How do you cope?  When Kelley talks about being “amputated” I can say that yes I do feel the same if I was sent to do a complete english essay or a research paper and was forced to use strictly paper or books and no…

Passages you understand and why. On the 4th page of the the paper I read a passage at the bottom of the page that I completely agree with the author talks about the uses of the internet and how he uses it for his benefit and how it rarely disappoints. I can understand this because the internet has never failed to disappoint you can physically or mentally do anything you…

The most valuable piece of technology in my life right now is my phone, and this is not just for the simple fact of social media or anything like that. My phone is light and compact enough to be carried around with me anywhere I go. My phone has my school email on it which is convenient for emailing professors or group members on the go and makes answering faster…

  Nicholas Carr argues that the internet specifically google is making us as humans a less intelligent race. ” I can feel it too. Over the past few years Ive had an uncomfortable sense that someone, or something has been tinkering with my brain, remapping the neural circuitry, reprogramming the memory. My mind dint going-so far as i can tell-but its changing. I’m not thinking the way I used to…

The readers of Carrs paper are reluctant to believe what Carr is writing because no one wants to believe that technology is taking over. No one wants t0 believe that something the internet is smarter then us even though people created it. The internet has made the human race a lazy race. The part that gives people anxiety to me is what else could go wrong? What else could happen…
