As part of Bell, Let's Talk day, I devoted a 50-minute period to simply TALK!
How has communication changed since the evolution of the cell phone?
Have we lost the art of simply talking?
What do you think the will happen in the future?
Explain.
Watch this video by Gary Turk titled "Look Up"
Now a days we talk but on text and it's not the same. Reason why is because on text you can't really see their emotions or how they feel as for talking you can tell if someone is sad or depressed or even mad. Other people would say I'm wrong because there are emojis but they aren't the same. I think that people still talk but less then before. I have a feeling that in the future we probably won't even have a voice.
ReplyDeleteAgree with you

ReplyDeleteI strongly disagree abdu
DeleteNothing even there Jordan
DeleteI do not think that we have lost the art of talking just because of cell phones. It is true that we text and cannot really tell the emotions of other the people we are talking to as Jordan said but I think when you are with good friends you have a lot to talk about and I also think it will stay the same if you have your good friends to talk to.
ReplyDeleteTrue when you're friends with someone you'd talk more
Deleteyes even with phones we still talk directly
Deletecommunication has changed dramatically since we have texting and cell phones. we barely even talk to eachother face to face because we have our phones in our hands. we have lost our face to face type communication. i think that in the future we will lose our talking face to face because techanlogy is evaluating more and more these days.
ReplyDeletePersonally I think that communication is at it all time low. Children of this generation don't know how to talk to each other. I don't think they understand that simply texting someone doesn't count as having a conversation with someone. When reading a text there's no emotion behind it. Face to face, is how emotions and knowledge come together as one. If one day all to face to face communication is lost, human relations and contact will seize to exist completely. Personally that is something I'd hate to see happen.
ReplyDeleteI agree there is no emotion behind a text.
DeleteCommunication has changed extremely since since the evolution of the cell phone.Now we all communicate without speaking we communicate with our fingers tapping a screen.I do not think we lost the art of simply talking but its coming really close if we keep on depending on our phones to speak. I think that in the future there is gonna be some kind of device that will make it seem like you are with you're friends and family with some kind of 3D projector face-time device
ReplyDeleteits called a hologram
DeleteCommunication has changes a lot since cell phones were invented. Now when you see kids today they are always on their phones texting or doing something else. Cell phones have really changed our lives and most people can't live without them. I can't say if we have really lost the art of talking but it's really coming close to happening. Texting isn't the same as just talking because you don't hear the persons emotions. I think in the future they will keep developing new technology and people will just be in their own world and not even talk to other people.
ReplyDeleteI think its sad that I can have an actual conversation with someone. I don't want to see your emotions in an emoji and I don't want to have to decipher what you mean by "K". I think that its training the new generation to be uneducated in the art of communication because they're not really learning how to talk to someone and they won't be able to understand social cues, eye contact and/or being able to speak and have emotion at the same time. I swear one day the whole world will be made up of unsocial mono toned people who won't be paying attention and will be dying of car crashes
ReplyDeleteI don't understand what you mean in the first sentence, but I agree with everything else.
DeleteYes, communication has definitely changed an extreme amount since cell phones have been invented. We don't make eye contact so it isn't as humanly. The things we say over text is so different from what we say in person. With social media and texting it makes people depict an image of us and when they meet you in person your different because behind a screen you aren't having human contact, human emotions or human feelings. People won't know how you feel over text. There is so much less human contact face to face. There's no real emotion. Without having a conversation in person you can't be yourself you can't have a good conversation. In person you feed off the energy of the other you have a good laugh together, it's real and it's humanly. I believe in the future we will become so unconnected human contact wise that the world will change. The way people have conversations will be different. The things we say the things we do. Will all be modified. As technology grows human iterations become worse.
ReplyDeleteyes true, I agree with you

ReplyDeleteYes, communication has changed drastically since the invention of cell phones. People interact in completely different manners, they're braver behind their screens. It's also harder to interpret and decipher and the different meanings behind all the different messages. For example, when people send you certain emojis and you have no idea what it means and in what context they meant it it's quite frustrating actually. It's definitely not the same as a real human interaction with emotions and expressions. However it's not as if we never talk to each other face to face anymore because we do.
ReplyDeleteI find cell phones was a great evolution in time. Look where it brought us with communication, (FaceTime, texting, phone calling, and etc..) it didn't change how we talk between each other and it updated on how we can talk with different ways. Communication with technology will be a big impact in the future. If ever we discover extra terrestrial, technology will be main thing of communication between each other.People with learning disability or people that have trouble talking, technology will help them communicate much better. Cell phones are just a start.
ReplyDeleteThe future is technology
DeleteToday someone sees a kid on a phone and they automatically think that all we do is go on our phones. And it pisses me off because everybody thinks our generation can't socialize. But the funny thing is we can probably socialize better than they do.If I was sitting at a a bus stop waiting for the bus and a stranger came to sit next to me,and let's say I was texting a friend. I'm not gonna stop texting my friend to talk to some guy I never met. Because honestly I couldn't give a rats ass about what the stranger is doing,I'd much rather talk to a person I know even if I can't see them. And let's face it without technology we would be living in the stone ages,technology is the future,there's no denying it.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree not all teengers are obsessed with their phones.

ReplyDeleteCommunication has changed tremendously since cell phones. Now, not only can we text, but also video chat with people completely across the world. I talk to people sometimes while I'm played no video games that live in Australia. No I don't think we have lost the art of talking. Sure we talk a lot less but we still talk with our family and friends. I think that in the future technology will become so powerful we couldn't control it
ReplyDeleteI think that that cell phones has changed how we communicate. But we have not lost the art of conversation because technically we are still talking. If you get to know that person you can even meet with them in person. I have heard that people have met over the internet and got married and are still married!
ReplyDeleteI don't think that talking has changed that much over time. Talking is a way of communicating, so is texting and calling. We still socials and communicate but just in different ways.So many adults and elderlies says "Oh, kids these day are always on their technology." It is not a bad think to text or call. Normal people will text and call because they want to communicate with someone far away. I think that talking will not change in the future.
ReplyDeleteEven with the creation of cellphones we still talk to each other directly. Although some kids develop social anxiety and end up only talking on internet. Of course people do use their phones a bit too much. Also, the look up video is a great video and I would recommend it to those who use their phones or internet a bit too much.

ReplyDeleteCommunication has changed a lot since the evolution of the cell phone. It has changed because many people just text each other even though they can have the opportunity to talk face to face. We may have lost a bit of the art of simply talking but it is not completely gone. In the future I think it will only get worse. Sooner or later people will be sitting next to someone and just text each other when they can simply just have a conversation orally. I hope it does not turn out to be like that but the impact that the cell phones have on communication is very strong and taking over.
I think communication has changed a lot, people now talk on there phones more. The art of simple talking has practically diminished, we need to stop talking by phone and start talking person to person, face to face,I think in the future everyone will be talking virtually and not face to face, people will be sing holograms of other thing to talk.

ReplyDeleteI think communication has changed dramatically since the invention of the cell phone because now people don’t even need to talk to each other to communicate. I personally prefer talking to my friend over the phone or Skype them because we are actually talking but if I don't have a lot of time and I need to send a quick message, I'll text them. I don't think we lost the art of simply talking but we will in the future because I some time see something really sad and that is two people texting each other when they are sitting side by side and it makes me sad that they can't simply talk and have to text each other. In the future I sadly think that we'll stop talking to each other and I see it today like I said before and it really sad because our ancient ancestors created our amazing languages that we speak today and swing all that hard work go to waste it really saddens me it’s like seeing artwork by a baby or toddler get thrown away immediately after they made it. The effort and care put into that piece of art just get put to waste. It's sad isn’t it.
ReplyDeleteWell said.
DeleteCommunication had changed since cell phones because we have more ways to stay in contact with people who live far way. For instance thanks to technology I am able to stay close to my family that lives in Egypt. I don't think we lost the art of talking because we have more ways of communicating. We just a different way to communicate. I think in the future we will find more methods of communication.
ReplyDeleteI think we have lost the ability to talk because of all the technologie we have these days especially all of the social media we have.Personally I've seen this happen were people are texting on there phones during social events instead of actually interacting with the people around them, and people are so attached to their phone that when the time finally comes they can't interact with people anymore and I think thats really sad considering its my generation so yes I think we are losing the abilitie to talk
ReplyDeletei agree

ReplyDeleteDue to the advance in technology this last decade, our society certainly adapted in various ways. One huge change in society is the loss of communication outside of the digital world. For example, in the past, everyone would know who their neighbors were,but now, a lot of us dont even know their neighbors names. Today people are getting less and less social because we dont really need to be anymore.
ReplyDeleteI don't think much will happen from here on out. We have discovered ways of talking between each other through large distances via the internet. There's nothing else to do than to just let improvements set in. Also the "art" of talking hasn't really ever died... We talk to people on a daily basis, no matter if your ordering your self some pizza for dinner or just discussing politics, your still talking.
