Personal Reflection of Technology on Current and Future Applications

Personal Reflection of Technology on Current and Future Applications
Our assignment this week will look more like a personal, journal reflection.

After choosing one topic listed below, please respond to the specific questions related to that topic in a 3-4 page, APA formatted essay. Keep in mind that there is no “right or wrong” response, but you should clearly share your connections while incorporating scholarly resources to enhance your personal viewpoints, experiences, and overall points.
· Internet of Things (IoT)
· SMART “gadgets”
