Link 6 – Task 10 Attention Economy Agnes

Upon reading Agnes’s reflection with Task 10, I couldn’t help but connect to it and think of the difficulties my parents and some of my colleagues would have completing this task. I also heavily connected to Agnes’s discussion piece on older adults being stereotyped as not as tech-savvy as well as being hesitant to input any personal information. With the new digital era, I definitely find myself amazed yet skeptical all at the same time, especially when inputting personal information. In addition, similar to Agnes, I also felt frustrated while completing this task. For myself, it mainly had to do with all of the clicking. The main reason why I felt like I was able to complete the GUI myself was because of my experience with both technology devices and the internet. Furthermore, both of us expressed different experiences with the internet which played a role in our experiences with this task.
