Reflections on my Digital Life

                                                             Digital Media                                                                          My reaction to the questions presented was one of interest because I was surprised about the amount of my responses that were correct in the questionnaire because usually without any prior research I do not a large amount of correct responses,but everyone else who be facing similar problems as myself.My colleague, Hugo and I compared answers after we had completed the questionnaire and we were surprised about how many answers were correct.I was astonished about how high of a percentage some of the collections of student responses.For example the percentage of student between the ages of 6 to 18 who have had a conversation about internet safety was 85% ,but I thought it was 15% I think the statistics presented in the questionnaire not presentable of the technologies I use.I consider myself a mediocre texting user as I do not use texting as often as an average teenager would in the developed world would,but I do use my phone daily for research purposes.I also have facebook and youtube accounts, with I go on routinely.I use my phone for sustained periods of time and I think it my most used technological device.        
                                                        Digital World                                                                              One upside for myself in the digital world is I'm able to get information about a topic much faster than going out to a library and find the up to date information on the topic.One downside of this is that information presented on the internet may be "up to date" ,but the information might be incorrect and when searching information online you have to verify the information.My relationships on social media with others is not very large.I don't not have a large amount of conversations with others online because I haven't been online that often to have relationships with others.I find society and the internet have a positive and negative partnership.For example:people use social media to organize events, whether there,significant or insignificant. Despite this a small portion of the online population uses it to intimidate and torment others online and other disrespectful actions.I usually don't create much content online,and never usually connect with others because those activitiesdon't interest me.
