Description

Digital technologies have profoundly changed our lives - for better and for worse. The meaning of time and space has been overhauled or distorted by a man-made innovation that aims to make us live in multiple times and spaces. Relationships with ourselves, our family, our friends, and our work have been significantly redefined. From reviews of research literature, along with personal experiences and reflections, this book bridges theory and practice, statistics and anecdotes to provide the readers a substantive view of the pros and cons of digital technologies so that users of digital technologies will be encouraged to think critically for themselves and to make their own decisions on how to handle digital technologies. About the author: Grace Shangkuan Koo, PhD, is professor of educational psychology at the University of the Philippines where she teaches about mind, brain, and education. She keeps a happy and busy work calendar of teaching, reading, writing, speaking, and learning - all assisted greatly by digital technologies, despite of (or rather, because of) not having a social media account. Still her students through the years have described her consistently as a “wide reader”, “highly knowledgeable”, “very organized”, “smart" , “always updated and prepared”, “witty”, “conversant” “fashionable” and “a model of excellence”. Her wish is to see more people reading worthy literature that offers life wisdom, instead of wasting life away - making and chasing trivia and gossips on cyberspace.
