Digital Nation

This documentary came as a surprise to me. I knew that the increasing amount of technology was greatly affecting my generation, but I don't think I fully understood to what extent. I am a member of the millions of teenage "multi-taskers", but I'm not nearly as bad as the students who were tested on their multi-tasking abilities. I also didn't realize that multi-tasking was considered such an epidemic that there are research studies being conducted. However, it seems right to assume that this trend is going to affect each new generation, in their education as well as their forms of entertainment.
I agree that it is important to draw attention to the growth of technology and our subsequent dependence on it. However, I believe that it is inevitable- as we create more, we are bound to use it more. Each year, children seem to be learning how to interact technologically at an earlier age and the frequency of uses is growing as well. It is an issue that needs to be addressed, and hopefully slowed down slightly, but it also needs to accepted. The documentary seems to be a good way to introduce the subject to society.
