I think universities still use a lot Facebook to spread messages among universities. Now, universities are even using chatbots to better engage with students on information they need. Facebook already has it’s own platform for building chatbots. Thus, it will be a very popular platform for a while.

I definitely share the same concerns about the technology in our life. Sometime ironically we would use apps/technology to help us restrict the time we spend with technology. If I do knot have my online calendar, I am lost as I do not save anything in my memory now. It’s like we are operating in short term memory only, which i don’t think it helps us. It even makes me question: are we really learning anything? we have all these information and tools around us that we don’t really need to learn anything but search for it when we need it.
