For round 1 of projects my group 5 Gal pals is creating a podcast on how technology impacts someones health. We will be talking about how fitness trackers aid in promoting good health, how social media has impacted peoples health, and how technology in the health fields have changes. All of these topics are related to technology and how each one of them can positively and negatively affects someones health.
We have assigned specific topics for each person to do some research and be able to have in depth conversations about each thing that is talked about. We start off with Rachel talking about Apple Watches and how they aid in tracking someones fitness. We discuss articles that have been written about Apple Watches and really focus in on what the Apple Watch has to offer. Bouncing off of Apple Watches we then move onto Merima and talk more about wearable technology like Fitbits.
Then we have Rose and I talking about how social media can impact someones health. We talk about the positive and negative affects apps like Instagram and Facebook have on a persons health. Whether seeing people in amazing shape motivates you to start becoming more physically active or if it affects your mental health in a negative way.
Our last topic for out podcast is Rileys topic, which is how technology has improved and changed. We discuss how some older generations may struggle with using smartphones and how technology has become more complex but also easier to use for older folks when it comes to health. We also talk about the growth of apps that help people become more knowledgable about their physical health. With all members being interested in what we are talking about, the conversation during the podcast will flow perfectly.
