Selfe essay review Ben

According to the article, "Lest We Think The Revolution is a Revolution," written by Cynthia Selfe, there is something that exists called a global village. In the first narrative it talks about how technology has created a global village which is another way of saying that anybody in the world who has access to the Internet is a member of this village. Within this network, cyber society members help one another and create a better environment. Selfe also talks about how this village is connected to everybody in a way, and that we must all work together in order to survive in this world. This global village is connected to every race and class in society, no one is left out. Selfe uses many different images to show that the global village represents everyone, even though Americans are not represented in any of the ads, we are able to infer that the ads are in fact American technology (301).
This change of technology not only changes society, but it should also change the learning environment. Selfe believes that, "A good English studies curriculum will educate students robustly and intellectually rather than narrowly or vocationally. It will recognize the importance of educating students to be critically informed technology scholars rather than simply expert technology users" (Cynthia Selfe 322). What she is trying to say is that she believes that due to the increase of technology and the content of knowledge contained within this technology, students should be taught a broader spectrum of curriculum that doesn't go as deep into analyzing each topic. She is also saying that technology needs to be incorporated into the learning environment. By teaching the students how to use technology and the Internet properly, it is helping them in the long run. I agree with Selfe because technology makes practically everybody's life easier, so why not imbrace this technology because it is the future.
