Slide 66 - Patterns and Suggestions
Slide 67 - Patterns and Suggestions What can we learn from all this? Technology will continue to advance and is not going away, so you’d better learn to ride the wave (Luddites need not apply)
Slide 68 - Patterns and Suggestions What can we learn from all this? Technology will continue to advance and is not going away, so you’d better learn to ride the wave (Luddites need not apply) As McLuhan suggested, the increasing use of newer technologies is changing individual and societal behavior
Slide 69 - Patterns and Suggestions What can we learn from all this? A sense of connection, whether present or absent, seems to drive much of the behavior students (and others) exhibit when using advancing technology
Slide 70 - Patterns and Suggestions What can we learn from all this? A sense of connection, whether present or absent, seems to drive much of the behavior students (and others) exhibit when using advancing technology Students’ sense of what is private/public is changing, which likely will result in societal changes in this area

Slide 72 - Patterns and Suggestions What can we learn from all this? College students and teens have embraced technology “whole hog,” and they’re not likely to go back
Slide 73 - Patterns and Suggestions What can we learn from all this?

Slide 74 - Patterns and Suggestions What can we learn from all this? Adolescent / young adult psychological needs remain the same (mastery, affiliation, independence); means to fill them change
Slide 75 - Patterns and Suggestions What can we learn from all this?
