Session 1- "I do not fear computers, i fear the lack of them"

I was not around for the first lesson, but as i read through the learning objectives of this course, i'm looking forward to attending lessons. Not only would i be able to learn how technology innovations have changed and improved to what they are today, but also their impact on areas like agriculture and industrial. Together with the relationship between civilizations and technological changes(from past and present). 

Correct me if i am wrong, but TWC reminds me a little of Jc Geography. Where we get to look into the cause and effects, case and data analysis and finding pattern in the data that we have and criticizing and analyzing them. However, TWC focus more on technological changes and its development. 

A came across a quote that says "I do not fear computers, i fear the lack of them". It got me thinking if we have became too reliant on technologies, or have we simply accepted the fact that we are indeed reliant on technologies, and have decided to improve them further to suit our needs.
