This scenario is a possibility with today’s world. People are too reliant on their phones and tablets. If this scenario would happen, people would be panicking because they wouldn’t be able to snapchat and use other apps on their phones. There would be various feelings going through my head if this scenario ever happened. The biggest reaction I would have is shock because I wouldn’t know any of my passwords for certain accounts. There would be some smaller emotions like nervousness, anger, and fear. I’d be nervous about how others are taking it because I know numerous people who are dependent on their phones. After a few hours, I’d probably start to panic because I wouldn’t be able to use my cell phone. There would be moments when I would have spurts of anger because I wouldn’t be able to contact several people. Overall, my reaction would be a mixture of anger, nervousness, fear, and shock. In addition to my reaction to this scenario, my life would also be impacted in some ways like not being able to contact my friends since I don’t have a home phone. It would also be difficult for me to call them because I don’t know their home phone numbers. A scenario like this wouldn’t impact my job or my schooling because I use computers for them. However, it would be difficult for me to contact my parents in case of an emergency. Above all, my social …show more content…
life would be most impacted since I wouldn’t be able to text or snapchat anyone. In the light of my life being impacted, I’d have a hard time adjusting to this change.
There would be numerous moments when I would forget about my phone working. I’d struggle with not being able to text people because that is the number one way I reach someone. One example of this would be when I have a question on homework. I’d more than likely reach for my phone then realize that it won’t work. Another example would be when I’m getting ready to go to bed. I always set some alarms on my phone to wake me up in the morning. I’d struggle with remembering that my phone wouldn’t work because I’ve become dependent on these
alarms. In conclusion, my life would be impacted severely if phones and tablets wouldn’t work. I would struggle with using an actual alarm clock instead of alarms on my phone. I do think that I would adjust to this scenario after a month or two.

How can a person in this day and age be away from technology? Approximately “90% of American adults have a cell phone” (Mobile Technology) and are constantly using the internet and interacting with people constantly. Before starting this project one word came into my head: Nomophobia - the fear of being away from your mobile device(Duerson, Meena Hart), and because of this experiment I realized that I have it. When I imagined having my phone being taken away I thought it was going to be hard but I NEVER processed the severity of the issue when it was in front of me.

The goal and the objective match because they both address to improve Kevin’s social skills in large group interactions. The goal of this treatment plan is “Kevin will increase his large group interactions, and be more comfortable in this setting within 4 weeks.” This is very similar to what the objective is stating which is “Kevin will be engaging more on his own with people in a larger setting….

The objective includes the performance, which is, Kevin will engage more with people improving social skills and attend intervention meetings. The objective
The Communication Accommodation Theory states when people interact they alter their speech to fit in or accommodate for other. CAT describes the psychological, social, and linguistic behaviors that people exhibit when communicating with each other (Coupland, Coupland, Giles, Henwood, 1988). Each individual has his or her own personality and motivation when involved in a conversation, this attribute are reflected in how the individual speaks, listens and then responds to the other person involved in the conversation. According to this theory, communication between two people can at any time be adjusted by either party in response to actual, perceived, or stereotyped expectations of the other person (Coupland, et al., 1988). This means that either party can change their communication style based on what they feel or pick up on during the conversation. The CAT theory can help understand how humans interact with one another while communicating.
In 2008, I began playing travel basketball. The practices were long and my parents usually dropped me off and then came to get me after practice was over. This, however, did not always work because practice might end early, and I would have to search for a phone to use. This forced my parents to reluctantly decide it was time for my first cell phone. For four years, I bought and recharged my minutes until I finally received a smartphone for my fifteenth birthday. The idea of being able to contact anyone or access social media at any time appealed to me and as anyone would expect, I assumed my life would be one hundred percent easier. But, it has become increasingly apparent to me that having the internet at my fingertips does not warrant an

Like the rest of the world, I cannot go a day without my phone. Try leaving your phone at home for a day and let me know how you feel. With the growing technology my phone is like my arms and legs. It is my must- have- can’t live without phone. It is my connection to the outside world. It is my connection to other people’s lives and theirs to connect with mine.

The reason I would have to give up my phone because my phone is an electronic. Electronics may draw attention and alert others, and is attention is drawn then we might be in trouble.
