W10 : Can we think of some example of how Internet has changed our culture? / 박소민(SOMIN PARK)

 1. Summary 

The Internet has changed our culture so much. First, through the Internet, we can meet people regardless of distance. People in each country communicated over the Internet and reduced the barriers to distance by creating relationships. Also, the Internet has let us stay away from books. When we want to find expertise, we can get it from Wikipedia or Google. Even information in books can be obtained through e-books, reducing access to libraries and paper books.

2. Interesting point

Further to the above, our brains are gradually degenerating because we don't have to remember information. We are constantly interrupted by SNS notifications ringing on our phones when we do something, so our concentration and attention are being reduced. Furthermore, the ease of obtaining information online is causing our short-term memory to decline.

3. Discussion point

I think the Internet has made it easy to sever a relationship with a person because we can meet another person simply. But rather, others say people can keep in touch with one person more often over the Internet, which helps strengthen the relationship. What do you think?

Comments

  1. The Internet made contact with other people easy. It's easy to contact someone, so if someone wants to contact someone, they can do it quickly. The best thing about the Internet is that A is not in touch with B right now, but if A wants to contact B again someday, he can always contact B again.

  2. Oh, I read your opinion well. Personally, I think people's views on the Internet change depending on their tendency. I think people who gain strength when they are with others will say that the Internet makes it easier to get in touch with them. However, people who gain strength when they are alone sometimes get tired of human relationships through contact like 'fast food'.
    However, the undeniable fact is that it has become easier and more convenient to relate to others on the Internet. So it can make relationships lighter or make relationships stronger. As there are pros and cons to everything, so does the Internet. However, I want to go back to the past when I wrote letters with my hands because I feel like I've become too light in contact with the Internet.

  3. I think with the development of the Internet, we can keep in touch with friends more easily and maintain our relationship more! For example, you can see your friends' news on SNS, write comments, send messages, and contact them easily through Kakao Talk.
    But sometimes I think it's a shallow relationship that leads to casual contact, so I think it's ambiguous how sincere the relationship is.

  4. Through the Internet, people are connected around the clock. This increases intimacy between people, but also makes them tired. Being able to communicate anytime, anywhere can sometimes be harmful to human relationships.
