Unit 6 - Living the future


Resultado de imagen de science fiction cityscape

Today, we started Unit 6, in which we'll speak about technology and innovation. Interesting topic, don't you think? Can you imagine a city looking like the one in the picture in a near future? It might seem impossible, but technology just keeps advancing faster and faster and, today, we're able to do things we couldn't have even imagined a few years ago. Thanks to the Internet and the powerful mobile devices we have now, we have total access to all sorts of information anywhere and at any moment of the day. We can check our personal mail, knowing about our dear ones' updates or even going shopping just with a click or a finger touch. No one knows what the future will actually bring for us, since the limit is just our own imagination. 
Everyday, we can hear in the news about smart houses, robots or flying cars, for instance.
These are some articles about those topics:

But, do you think it will all come true? What's the real limit for technological innovation? Do you think technology makes our lives easier or we're too saturated with so much hi-tech?
Please share your opinions on this post or on our Google Classroom group. In later posts, we'll talk about famous computer companies.

See you in class!
