These sentence:

Since computer appeared, many people especially teenage spend a lot of time in playing computer games instead of going out with family members or friends; Since internet appeared, many professors choose to communicate with students by emails instead of face-to-face meeting. It seems like

讨论COMMENTS:

-题目要求两边都提到，可以一边支持一边不支持,也算两边都提到
-不一定局限在social media ATM machine, taobao
-不一定要definition,严格的definition比较难,在论证中可以举例来解释我们怎么理解概念
-这个领域分的跟technology没什么关系一样, 当一个命题在不同的环境下观点不一样才分

讨论后提纲:

对technology进行分类

1.        Transportation 接近人与人之间距离 奥运会，世界各国运动员可以在一起互动 国际文化的交流
2.        Social networking site/social media 可以结识新的朋友，互动可以一起做很多事情，如wikipedia 可以一起编辑一起学生
3.        科技使用会威胁到最原始的face to face 的交流，如和家人、亲人的，大量时间在travel或者玩手机、Internet 让人们有一个

Opening：
Thanks to the increasing technology on communication skills, nowadays one can express his or her thought without pronounce even one word. Some may concern on the disadvantage of this overwhelming convenience since people may spend less time facing with each other and capture the emotional change on who they are really talking to. From my point of view, this phenomena frequently occur on work communication while during personal relationship and self expressing people much more benefit from rather than stymied by the technology convenience.

ts 1. Reducing efficiency on emotional or spirital communication because of utilizing technology is not rare in working scenes. 举例一，通过OA（office automation software), 人们不再面对面汇报而是定期录入工作进度到电脑，leader很难从电子档案中感觉到团队成员的状态，无法提前避免一些因为情绪、压力或者其他原因而造成的工作失误；举例二，long-distance group的工作模式主要通过instant chat tools沟通，人们可能对同事没有curiosity，团队缺乏power of cohesions，所以缺乏必要的情感沟通和interaction。

ts 2. However, technology inventions are much more friendly when using in maintaining people’s relationships. 线上购物和发达的物流使得人可以帮任何一个地方的朋友庆祝生日，表达感情或者其他与维系感情有关的事情；便利的即时通讯可以让人跟自己共享旅途的风景，喜欢的音乐或电影，来增进相互理解和共鸣；外出的Mom可以通过camera随时查看baby的情况，以这种方式陪伴自己的孩子。

ts 3. As we are staying at a time of expressing, to let others to notice and care about us , we take advantage of technology to build an attractive online image of ourselves. 举例各种SNS（Facebook, twitter，专业forum等），通过科技我们能展现出自我优势的一面，这样就能吸引同类的人来交流，让我们跟他人的connection更紧密。
