I think many of the predictions are realistic such as virtual reality that redefines experiences and social media’s inevitable integration to everything, however, 2039 may be slightly early for some of these predictions. #COMM1720

@daviestanich This is a really good point, companies have learned from past failures. #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

@kindrachuk0 This shift has been long-coming and will continue to overhaul our old habits but I agree that these changes aren't all going to come within the next 20 years. #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

@kindrachuk0 Love the simplicity of this but agree. #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

@gregbalanko Absolutely. I took this take as well, it needs to be accepted and used as a tool to move forward. #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

Social media in the classroom is just another tool for us to grow and develop our style of learning with just like teaching on a chalkboard has evolved to a SMART board and paper assignments to environmentally conscious online handouts. #COMM1720

Virtual reality has a future in journalism, however, it is rather distant. I would argue when it comes, that VR will further legitimize the journalism industry with where it is trending. #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

@mrosee_rose Agreed and it is pretty easy to tell the difference. #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

@kendallbist This is a good take and one I hadn't really thought of. #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

Naturally, with the advancements of technology comes a sense of necessary innovation and I believe that is what happened with the introduction of ebooks. #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

@nikaledawn Absolutely, I don't want to spend hours reading on a screen when I already get headaches enough from electronics to begin with. #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

@snappy_chappie I love that as well and actually turning those physical pages rather than swiping on a screen. #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

I believe that the government's use of Facebook to detect tax evasion is open for business. It really isn’t much different than conversely, a government official coming to your door to begin an investigation. #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

@PhelpsTheory What about other people posting pictures of you that you didn't give permission to post?? #COMM1720 #TwistedTea

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

@_sweere_ I definitely agree. I think we're pretty much accustomed to it by now which isn't to say that is a good thing... #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

Mount Royal University Survey of Technology Habits shows 95% students have Facebook, a number I can certainly see dropping moving forward. #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

@mrosee_rose Totally agree, Magdelaine, what an impressive perspective 🤓 #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

@nikaledawn Exactly. There are always negative people looking to throw shade our way. Nothing we can do but keep moving forward while they stay stationary in their computer chair... #COMM1720

[Aaron Schmidtke @schmidtke10]

I think journalists are targets for hatred in this digital age because many of us voice our opinions on a public platform. While someone can echo their perspective on social media, they don’t have the tools to properly construct an argument regarding the subject. #COMM1720
