I think the first piece of technology I used was a computer. I had a CD-ROM that I would play. I think technology will work faster and have more features in 4 or 5 years.A lot of our world will probably be run by technology.

I think the first piece of technology I remember using was the VCR on our TV. I would watch video tapes like "Robin Hood" and "Annie" all the time. In 5 years I think technology will have more Science-Fiction type features.

The first piece of technology I used was a computer. My mom would always let me go on kids websites to learn facts and play games. In 4 or 5 years I think most computers will be touchscreen and you will not need a mouse or keyboard anymore. There are some laptops that are like that now but I think all computers will be that way in the future.

The first piece of technology I have used is a phone. I even remember playing around with my moms phone when she was not looking.
I believe that in four - five years later technology will be so advanced, we will have hovering computer or maybe even phones that project films with a touch of a button.

The fist piece of technology I used was a TV.In 5 years I think technology will be more advanced, computers will have touch screens and will be able to do what we command (not huge stuff like doing homework). This will be easier for the disable people like the blinded people.

1.The first piece of technology that I remember using was a television. I remember using one at the age of three.
2.I think that in five years technology will be improved and will provide more information. I say that technology will be improved because over the years T.V's have been improved because before, T.V's had antennas and now they have built in antennas that help to provide a better picture.
3.Another reason I think that technology will be improved is because new things are happening everyday, and people are always looking for ways to make life easier.Soon I think we will have computers that are voice controlled. Voice activated technology could help people who are blind or have some other disability. I say this because some of the people with disabilities that are in wheelchairs have voice activated wheelchairs.

1.The first piece of technology I used was a cell phone. I was on the train and I asked my dad if I could play a game on his phone. Then in a minute or 2 I was playing a game on his phone.

2. I think techology will be way more advanced in five years then it is know. Probaly you would go to school and they would be no more compisition notebooks. All there would be is mini notebooks/laptops. And everything else would be MUCH more Hi-Tech in 5 years.

The first piece of technology I remember using was my TV while watching movies with my mother and father to put me to sleep.
In five years, I think technology will be pretty much the same as it is now but only more advanced. Cars won't run on gas, cell phones will get better, and laptops will get smaller.

The first piece of Technology I Remember using is back in the day my dad's beeper and old school cell phones. I think in 5 years from now cell phones would be a small device kind of like a projector that you can see the person that you are talking to or maybe even a small chip inplant on your body. From Michael Johnson in Class 5-404

1 The first piece of technology was the wined-up toy's to put babies to sleep.When I was 3 I would wined it up and look at it to take a nap.
2 I think technology will really be advanced because we already made touch screen phones.Its hard to think what technology will be like in the future but most likely (not much time away) will be flying cars.

The first piece of technology I probably used was the remote control for the TV. I was so little I called it the "marote", so I must have been less than two years old. When I first used the remote, I thought it was a very complicated device because you could go to so many different channels with just a remote. You could control a lot of things.
In five years, I think technology is going to be more advanced than living in the moment. For example, there will be floating images--holograms instead of flat TV-- and robots to help with personal needs. Instead of keys, Metrocards and credit cards, we'll just use our fingerprints.

The first piece of tecnology I used was the telephone. I would always want to call my grandma and grandpa to say hi and ask if i could come over, but it was always a "no" because they live in New Jersey.
I think in 5 years tecnology will be even more easier to do then it is now. I think that tecnology will also be more advanced and 'high-tec'. For example laptops will have hologams instead of seeing the other persons face on the screen for video chat, and for typing you say what you want to say and then the computer types what your saying for and what you said will appear on the screen. That is what I think tecnology will be like in 5 years!

Laurette G. said...

The first piece of technology I remember using was the television. I would watch my favorite cartoons everyday.

I think technology will be a lot better and even more advanced and confusing. I also think it will allow us to do more complicated things and get more work done faster.
