In her works, Sherry Turkle outlines several socio-cultural and interpersonal consequences of how computers and digital technologies influence us specifically:
1. Shallow Thinking and Reduced Reflection
In How Computers Change the Way We Think, Turkle argues that reliance on technology reduces deep, reflective thinking. The immediacy of certain information can lead to shortcuts in problem solving, especially in young students who may prioritize finding answers over developing critical thinking skills. This shift serves to undermine the ability to pause, reflect, and engage thoughtfully with complex issues.
2. Decreased Quality of Conversation
Furthermore, in the flight from conversation and stop googling, let’s talk, Turkle contends that constant connectivity leads to superficial conversations. For example, in modern day youth and some adults people will often choose the convenience of texts over in-person dialogue, making conversations shorter and less meaningful. With this in mind she suggests erodes empathy and the ability to engage in open-ended, face-to-face exchanges that foster real connection.
3. Fragmentation of the Self
Finally In Constructions and Reconstructions of Self in Virtual Reality, Turkle discusses how virtual spaces, like MUDs (Multi-User Dungeons), allow users to experiment with different aspects of identity. While this can be empowering, it can also fragment the self, as people may create multiple personas online that can be difficult to reconcile with their offline identity as they get more comfortable being online.
These critiques resonate in a world where digital interaction often replaces deep, personal engagement, though some might view them as reflecting older concerns about the changing nature of communication.

Choose 3 of the 6 sociological theories and describe how those theories fit choices you’ve made in your life. Please give multiple examples (for each theory) of when and how you’ve applied each theory. For example;
During my time as an athletic administrator, I’ve hired many head coaches for women’s sports. For each search I would inevitably end up with a pool of approximately 75% men and 25% women. For most of my searches (after choosing the best candidates), there were very few females that qualified for an interview. Understanding that only 33% of collegiate head coaches were women, I felt a duty to hire more women in the head coaching profession. Therefore, I spent hours on the phone with my colleagues around the country trying to find qualified females for my open positions. When the search was concluded and I brought candidates to campus for an interview, I always made sure that 2 out of my 3 finalists were women. This is a “real life” example of the application of Feminist Theory.
Please turn in a 3 FULL page, double spaced paper on how you’ve applied these theories in your own life. You can use sport and non sport examples. Please turn in a word or PDF document.
The 3 theories I chose are Social Exchange Theory, Conflict Theory, and Symbolic Interactionism

From the Toledo Blue Stockings Manager Charlie Morton’s decision in the late 1800’s to play Moses Walker, to the 2020 Milwaukee Bucks protest of the shooting of Jacob Blake, professional athletes have continually exercised their right to peaceful protest. As a matter of fact, peaceful protest is the cornerstone of US democracy.
Your assignment is to profile an athlete or team that used their platform to protest social injustice. In addition, I’d like to know whether you believe your athlete or team is or will be on the “right side” or “wrong side of history”. For example, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell recently apologized for the league’s treatment of players and not listening more closely to Colin Kaepernick and other players’ protest over social injustice. On the other hand, Hitler’s propaganda of an Aryan “master race” backfired on him when German athlete Carl Ludwig “Lutz” Long gave Jesse Owens technical advice that helped Owens win the long jump in the 1936 Berlin Olympics (Long won the silver).
Please use references to back up the facts of your profile (author and date) and address your thoughts on “the right or wrong side of history” choice in a minimum of three FULL pages, double spaced.
