3. Illustrate how your life would be without all of this technology and what would you replace it with

4. Analyze how you use your social media (i.e. Facebook, Cyworld, etc) and justify the time you spend on it (i.e. is is productive? good for you? good for your school work?)

5. Find 2 positive and 2 negative stories in the media about youth and technology (www.cnet.com is a good place to start)

6. What are areas of technology that you absolutely love? Illustrate this

7. What are some areas of technology that you really dislike? Illustrate this.

8. How does technology bother you (make like difficult, troublesome, annoyed, scared)? Illustrate this

9. How does it make you happy? Illustrate this.

This is a very broad and unspecific assignment. You need to be creative and think these questions out. I can help with general direction however, there is no correct answer. Think about it as you making a documentary about "you in the world of technology"
