The
world is flattening as we speak. I have
concluded that in fact the world is flat.
My class and I have been reading the book The World is Flat by
Thomas L. Friedman. I have learned many
things about the world flattening. The
world is being flattened through many steps called flatteners. I have many mixed emotions about the world
slowly flattening. I thought to myself
how could my world be flattening, and then I hit me. With all of our technology I could believe
it.
Many
people were shocked to hear such news. I
also was not very shocked because of all the new innovation and technology we
have, it makes sense that it could make the world flat. I have learned many things through this topic
and project my class and I had to do. I
learned that as technology gets more advanced the world slowly flattens. I say this because we can video chat across
the world faster than ever and we can get news here in our country, just as
fast as in the country that is being affected.
I would say that this unit definitely showed me that our world is way
more advanced and will be so advanced in the future that we won’t want to even
leave our houses.
I
am definitely excited for the flat classroom project and I cannot wait to get
started. I am a little nervous about
whom my partners are and if they are going to follow through with their
part. I am a little confused on how this
project is going to work because how do we share our information with one
another. I am eager to meet my partners
and get to work.
