Mass consumerism is a major driving force in technology. Nintendo is marketing the successful Wii, which features an unconventional remote control that players wave to manipulate action on screen, has attracted a broader range of customers than other game machines. The technology allows the user to simulate human action and behavior. “Nintendo promises to ship more of Wii for the holidays.” Laurie J. Flynn New York Times October 2, 2008. Discuss the role of the use of video games for your generation? Which technologies do you see as the most dangerous to society in the near future? B. The presidency of Donald Trump has coincided with what experts say is a rise in racist rhetoric and action. The riots in Charlottesville, VA are the most recent example of how racial tensions seem to be growing stronger everyday. There are many competing theories as to what has led us to this place of racial unrest. One theory, that enjoys wide support, is that 21st century technology (especially social media) has created both the conditions and the platforms to broadcast ideas and gather supporters on both sides of this issue. Write an essay that answers the following questions: In what ways has social media changed the way people speak about race in America? How do different social media platforms (twitter, news sites, blogs, websites, instagram) influence how racism is advocated or combatted? In your opinion, will Americans be able to use technology and social media to heal the rift between people and bring us closer together? C. Multiple deployments compound strain for children of service members. Many children of National Guard troops fighting in the Iraq war are showing signs of depression. Thousands of soldiers who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan are parents with families. Over 43 percent of those fighting have families in the U.S. Many of their children are vulnerable to depression and anxiety due to the multiple deployments. Family stresses due to military service cause a number of problems including abuse, depression, and divorce. “Coping with Their Parents’ War.” Maria Glod Washington Post July 17, 2008. How are military families different than other families? How should society invest in children with parents at war? How is family crisis for war veterans dealt with in the mass media?
