2. I think this class has helped me to look at technology in a more in-depth way. I tend to think of technology as electronic devices (computers, cell phones, tablets, etc). However, technology can basically be any improvement of an existing product. For example, most athletic apparel now advertises "moisture wicking technology". The fabric is not a type of electronic, but the way the new fabric is created, is an advanced form of technology from how it was previously made. So, I believe that my knowledge of technology has broadened, thanks to this class. I think one of the most interesting topics for me was on how technology can control human behavior. I've always thought that we, as humans, dictate technology and what it does for us. And that's still true, but I never thought about the ways that people could use technology to control other people. It can be kind of scary when you think about all the ways that technology influences us and the way we do things. Everything from surveillance and online banking, to laws and medical records kept electronically. I wouldn't say that there was any particular topic that was difficult for me in this class. But another thing that was neat for me was to think about how technology influences me in my profession; HR. Besides using a computer at work every day, there are so many other aspects of technology that influence me in my role. Everything we do is based around technology. Even signing up for benefits or managing your 401K, relies on technology. Payroll and performance review, and employment applications are all handled online now.
