Individual Framework of Perception
Looking through the different lenses of perception can alter
your perception of the world. Technology can have a significant
impact on your daily life. In this case, the internet's invention
changes how I view the world. I can see something one way on
the internet and instantly paint a picture of how it should be
before experiencing it myself. This can harm my view as well.

2. As I prematurely form perceptions of people, places, ideas,
behaviors, and beliefs, I become biased. As I am taught in my
current career field, perception is everything; how people
perceive things is reality. Now, do I agree with that in its
entirety? No. Perception is how someone has a mental grasp of
something, which means it is unique to that individual. How an
individual perceives it may not be how the following individual
perceives it.
Bias
Once a biased opinion is formed, it is difficult to get that
out of one thought process unless that individual is open-
minded. I am extremely open-minded. I am a curious George. I
love learning. Bias has not altered the way I use certain
technologies. If anything, it has made me more curious. By
being curious, I dream of owning every technology there is. The
reality of this coming true is slim to none, but I tend to procure
as many different types of technologies as possible. Many
people are biased against many technologies only due to
negative hearsay things. They fail to realize that with most
technology, many of the positive outweighs the negative.
Another reason most are biased is due to a lack of knowledge.
My goal is to spread awareness to others about the positive
effects of technology on society when appropriately utilized.
Field of study or profession
As I lean toward the Public Health sector for my field of study,
I realize that technology could play a huge role! Research and
laboratory would be essential in finding cures for new diseases,
viruses, vaccines, and more. To do this, we would need to help
of the world's leading technologies. Technology is where we
could use the application of science. Technology is shaping
today's society as we move towards many sectors globally. The
invention of the internet has also drastically impacted the public
health sector. It has allowed awareness to be spread easily once
new data is found regarding new viruses, diseases, and other
