Journal #2

Summarize: This article is explaining how the latest technology makers have failed to make the technology educational for children. It explains how there needs to be a bigger push for technology that is not only entertaining, but that also helps children's cognitive development.

Synthesis: This article and my previous article do not particularly communicate with each other. My first article focused on the intelligence of the children while this article focuses on how technology has failed to educate the children. They neither directly support or disprove one another.

Think: This article really made me think about how technology is taken advantage of in todays society. We use it for recreation rather than the benefit of ourselves and others. Technology can be used for so many wonderful things but many people do not care about its potential.

Plan: I plan on know finding an article focusing on the psychology of the children rather than the technology itself. To see if the technology is really having a positive or negative effect on the minds of children.
