Students,
Today we talked about Globalization! This is the gradual shift of the world towards a global economy and community.
So take a minute and think about the way you live, the food you eat, the music you listen too, and even the clothes you are wearing. Realize that you are not the only one doing those things, they are influenced by people who you may never meet. to an extent the choices you make to fit in or in some cases not fit in are governed by a society and companies that are essentially telling you what to think. This is the pessimistic way of looking at things or one of the Cons rather. however it is strangely accurate.
The benefits of globalization are great though, we can communicate with people around the globe with the click of a button or order that out of stock item from your favorite store with the click of a button. The amount of time it takes to communicate any form of information has been cut down to seconds down from months or years in some cases.
Pretty neat huh?
Reminders: Unit 3 test on Wednesday!!!!
