~ Touching upon the ways in which education affects the
world today, the author addresses the difference of electric information with
in a home environment and that of a modern day classroom. While the atmosphere
of a home includes the information brought by a television, the setting of a
classroom introduces the ideas of patterns, subjects, schedules etc. The image
displayed beside the text seems to present that idea of organized arrangement,
showing a specific device used to reach a task wanting to be accomplished.
~ With the advancement of technology though how important is
an individual once a machine can replace the job that they do? The duplicated
photographs on page 21 of a single man seems to symbolize the lack of
individuality a person holds when it comes to particular jobs. Although not all
jobs can be replaced by technology due to the call for different demands, in
time to come will that still stand?
~ Techniques of the past are far too tedious for current day
approaches. While governing populations had been straight forward, influencing
people is no longer the way it used to be. Everyday events alter the mindsets
of individuals changing people’s outlooks constantly, resulting in listening
those that used to be unheard. On page 25 it states, “there is absolutely no
inevitability as long as there is a willingness to contemplate what is
happening”, meaning that if one is considering something there is no way they
can ignore or disregard what they are thinking.
