Evaluating Vonnegut Quote

After reading Kurt Vonnegut's quote on Luddites and technolegy. I would have to disagree, as well as agree on what he says. I agree with his definition of luddites, "a person who doesn’t like newfangled contraptions." However, i dont beleive that what he says about technolegy is completely accurate. He states that you as a peron should be advancing and doing not the computer. And i think on some level that is a valid point. Although, i now wonder, would we be able to know, advance, and learn as quickly with technolegy such as comuters? I dont necesarly think we would. So what Kurt vonnegut states in his quote is both correct and incorrect. Therefore my conclusion statement will be, "feel free to use technolegy, but dont become completely dependant on it."

Technolegy

Technology is a man made creation designed to make human life easier. This is why I think that the improvement of technology, and technology usage should be increased, and continued to be updated in schools. I believe this because when you talk about the introduction of technology in schools, you're not saying that the computer's doing you're work for you, but simply that it's speeding up the process of accomplishing work. However, not all technology is a good thing, or a necessary factor, Such as: Hairdryers, plastic bags, vacuums, or atomic bombs. Technology that is very useful includes items like: computers, compasses, pens, light bulbs, boats. Without many of these things we wouldn’t be where we are today.

Thinking About Globalization

Some of the main visual elements in this cartoon are; a young angry girl, a older man reading a news paper, and a speech bouble saying "No you may not outsource your homework to India." The issue that the cartoonist is expressing is that becuase of globalizatiion, outsourcing in piticular, people in already delveloped nations are slowly becoming lazy about there work. And there becoming lazy about there work because they are having it done by other people, and making a profit out of it. I this case, the girl is lazy because shes not doing her work, but she gets a profit (good grades). Based oon what I've gathered so far, i would to say that the cartoonist does not like the concept of outsourcing. This specific cartoon relates to the concept of globalization, because it is one of the ten flattener's. Some other techniques the cartoonist could have used to make this drawing more persuasive is probably add in a line for the girl such ass : "why not? The work gets done doesn't it?" or "Why should i have to do may work?" that would probably make this piece's idea clearer.

3 Most Valuable

The 3 most important things i learned from the UBD project are; how rapidly the populatioin of india is in creasing, how the level of TB cases increases becaause of the rising population, and how unsanitary the Delhi slums conditions were. These three things are important because they ditermine the future of India! If the population is very high, there'll be more TB cases. The more TB cases, the more people will die. And the more people will die the more the econemyt will plumet, and the more the econemy plumets, THE FASTER INDIA WILL GO INTO A STATE OF DEPRETION!

Who uses thier word precicly?

My Opinion

Although sameness and equality may sound very similar, their meanings are actually quite different. Sameness implies that every one looks, acts, feels, and responds the same way. However equality implies that people are respected and treated equally.
When comparing both books (Animal Farm and The Giver) and their authors (Lois Lowry, and George Orwell), I would have to say Lois Lowry used his words more carefully. You see, in the book The Giver equality exists, which is why Lois Lowry used that word. He used that word because in the book people don’t feel or necessarily respond the same way, though they are treated the same way. But in the book Animal Farm, Gorge Orwell used the word sameness. And this word wasn’t used correctly. This is because every one in the book didn’t all look the same, but were meant to treated equally. Therefore I would have to say that Lois Lowry picks his words much more carefully than Gorge Orwell.

Being an Adult

In the world we live in today, you are considered an adult by the time you’re around the age of eighteen. To become an adult, means that you are old enough to fend for yourself, work, and maybe even raise a family. The great thing is you can ALWAYS be a useful part of the community. Even if you are 90. This is because you can still do kind things, like make a donation, or start a health care center. However, our life seems so long compared to the children in the book The Giver where people are no longer useful by the age of 36! And, are given jobs and maybe even families by the age of 12 or 13! That’s a short life! Luckily, we have a full life to accomplish of this.
