HUMU 250 WEEK 8 DISCUSSION

PROMPT:

Referring to both assigned readings for this week, answer this slightly edited question from the Anderson and Ranie article:

The year 2019 will mark the 50th anniversary of the first host-to-host internet connection. Please think about the next 50 years. Where will the internet and digital life be a half century from now? Please tell us how you think connected technology, platforms and applications will be integrated into people’s lives. You can tackle any dimension of this question that matters to you.

You might consider focusing on one of the following questions:

What changes do you expect to see in the digital world’s platform companies?

What changes do you expect to see in the apps and features that will ride on the internet?

How will digital tools be integrated into everyday life?

What will be entirely new? What will evolve and be recognizable from today’s internet?

What new rules, laws or innovations in its engineering over the intervening years will change the character of today’s internet?

Considering what you just wrote about your expectations for the next 50 years, how will individuals’ lives be affected by the changes you foresee?

You may consider this a brainstorming session for Essay Two if you like, but your DB should not be copied and pasted from your essay.

EACH WEEK:

Deadlines: By Thursday at midnight, post a response/reaction to the question posed.  Start your own thread and, title it "Your Name Main Post" so Kim Chester's would say, "Kim Chester Main Post."

Read and reflect on your colleagues’ responses.

Throughout the week (deadline is Sunday at 11:59pm), respond to at least two of your colleagues’ postings in one or more of the following suggested ways:

·         Ask a probing or clarifying question.

·         Offer, support, or challenge a position

·         Validate an idea with your own experience.

·         Expand on your colleague’s posting.
