Hi All-

This week for our blog we will be talking about 3D printing.

Please read two of the articles below and tell me if you agree or disagree with the article. Do you think you would use a 3-D printer and where do you see the use of the 3D printer going or will be one of the technologies that had a big hype with little to no use. Feel free to give me any other thoughts on the subject.

Hi All- Week 6 Blog  Due October 8

This week I would like to hear your thoughts on the use of your phone.
Do you think you pay full attention to the people you are with? Are you engaged in what’s happening around you? Or are you distracted by your phone? And are the people in your life — your family, friends, even teachers — distracted by theirs?
Please read the attached article and tell me what your feelings are about the article and answer the questions I have posed to you.
