[Group Work] Reflection

2. During group work, we all worked together as a group of three. The best thing about group work is that there are more opinions combined. Every individual has their own mindset and when you exchange your own unique thoughts with those of someone else, it becomes its own idea that we as a group have now created. The most difficult thing about group work is honest opinions. When asked to guve input, you will always have that group member who is too honest and too narrow minded that their opinion is dominant rather than equal in a group project. On another polar extreme, you have the group's mouse that does have much of any influence on the group's work therefore their opinion is not reflected within the activity.

3. The group that had Theoretical Framework did a wonderful job on their question. Their question is a perfect representation of what Stein may have meant when she said "right technology" and "wrong technology". The turn of Apple could have been a brainwashing act of techno-geeks that produce robotic electronic equipment in order to represent the power of submission of human beings OR it could have been a savior from old clunky equipment that was keeping the world stuck in the past in dire need for a refresher. This also happens to be throughout the Feminist Movement time period which could mean freedom for women.

I also admired the one-pager of the Conclusion group because it is extremely relevant. Stein did not really represent her thought on the entire "technology revolution". Rather, she described in detail all of the many reasons that this happened in the first place. One thing that does reflect is her opinion of Steve Jobs. She speaks about him as if he was an old classmate that she never too much cared for. Now he is one of the wealthiest (is that a word) dead men still living (if you catch my drift). I found it interesting that they put the word salvation in red because the Salvation Army is plastered in red on all of their buildings. Maybe because red is such a rebellious color, very vibrant and alive.

4. One another aspect that I will have to consider that I had not before I read some else's one-pager is what exactly is Stein's outlook on this entire article that she wrote?

5.The mid 70's through the end of the 80's was clearly a memorable time period for Sarah Stein. Not only she know so much about the transition of IBM to Apple and what it took to get there, she also seeks out to let readers know why this technological transition is so important to us still today.
