Time to go back to the beginning... Continued...

Now, you have thought extensively about a pencil, and written a discussion post. 

Considering this, 

What is technology? What is the essence of technology? Where does technology emerge? Is it a system? A product? A process? 

In your response you should do the following:

Craft a narrative discussion of "What is Technology?" 

Reference your reading in accordance with APA. 

Compare your definition with the one presented in the book. Is the book's definition complete? Is it lacking? 

Please allow for sufficient time in reflecting upon these questions. 

These discussions will begin the process of thinking and reflecting upon technology in both a critical and analytical manner. Begin to look beyond the ideas of good vs evil, right vs wrong, and begin to consider the construct and nature, the system and process, of technology.
