New Society Technology

In today's generation, what we see/use is not how it was decades ago. The use of cell phones, computers, fax machines, etc. This is where the evolution of social media comes into play. Older Media vs. New Media. 

Old Media: 
- Television
- Radios 
- Newspaper
- Books 

New Media: 
- Iphones
- MacBooks 
- Ipads 

Can you tell the difference? In society today, there is such an easier way to communicate with others, in which makes our parents think to themselves all the time, how unfortunate it is that technology is even a thing. I sure know my parents are bothered on how many times they can watch me scroll down any social media platform.

In all of which helps the overall idea of communication. All of this innovations are just easier ways to talk to someone rather than in person. What will happen with futures to come? The world will only find out soon enough.

    Hello,
    I agree that technology is not the same from what it was several years ago as we have began to use it in our everyday lives in a variety of forms. Its mind boggling to think of how far we have come in such little time and I am curious to see what the future has in store and how we will implement technology even further into our lives. You did a great job on your post.

Collaboration in Hospitals, I think so

Image
(This is my makeup blog post from Nov. 2)  Last weekend a situation occurred where I resulted in the hospital. Due to this, I learned a lot from my time being there. Not only do I now know EVERYTHING about medical terms and medicine but I am more aware of the standings the workers have in their office space. You never really put in perspective how hard working each member of the hospital is and with how much hospitality they treat you.  As I was sitting there for the various days, it was presented to my attention that I noticed the slight bit of collaboration used within the work space. For example, I had a nurse with me at all times and if a problem rose with me, she reported to the internal doctor team in order to get the correct medical attention I needed. You never really think about how in everyday life, one is able to see the use of collaboration. Even if it is for tiny situations, it can affect a situation in such a positive way. It is a sense of coming together to make any

What team?

Tuckman's 5 Stages of Group Development: Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing, Adjouring. We see this in everyday life and when thinking on how people in my personal life are affected by the 5 stages, my 16 year old brother Matthew is the first thought to come into my head. Growing up and having the dream of following my cousins sports path, his only goal was to succeed in lacrosse. His freshman year of high school, he tried out for his schools lacrosse, making the varsity team, at only 14 years old. Playing with boys who are seniors in high school was intimidating, even I felt nervous for him. Walking into a newly formed team for the new school year, Matthew knew he needed to play his best. Telling me the stories of his first few days made my heart sink to the ground. But as the days went on he told me that the team that was "formed", collected all the boys strengths in order to collaborate and make the best team in the region. Dealing with the stage of "storming&

Presentations

Throughout the past few weeks, as a class, we separated into our groups and have been working on our collaboration projects. For these projects we incorporated situations, movies or anything that correlates with Tuckman's 5 Stages of Group Development. For example, my group worked on the Disney movie "Cool Running's". We as a group sat down, using the 5 stages forming, storming, norming, performing and adjourning and picked out specific clips from the film. This really helped with the understanding of the 5 stages and how it is seen in everyday life. I now am able to put two and two together in certain everyday life situations when wanting to piece the 5 stages of group development to it. Photo Courtesy of IMDb.com
