Technical activity automatically eliminates every nontechnical activity or transforms it into technical activity. This does not mean, however, that there is any conscious effort or directive will. Jacques Ellul

Telepresence "from when i missed class"
This reminds me of Star Trek. Telepresence, is a seperation from our bodies using an electronic device. I feel that it does not allow us to not experience life to the fullest. I feel it takes the meaningful connections with people away from life. Telepresence is a futuristic force that takes away from humans to use eye movements, head motion, gesture, and posture to interact in a in life. With me planning on becoming a teacher, I agree that in order to learn you have to be present, both mind and body. If one would use the computer to learn, the person is limiting him/herself. The person cannot see the greater picture of the subject, just the area the teacher is focusing on. Sometimes a teacher focuses on a specific point in order to drive the students to ask questions about the big picture, and without this students may not ask questions and everyone needs to ask those questions. People need interaction in their lives to grow in thier educational lives and in everyday life actions.
