Is this post even high quality?
Quality of information is always better than quantity. In an article discussing technology's future impact on education the claim is made that a high quality of information shared between an educational team will make the biggest impact on the learning experience. When we are able to share quality information we are then able to communicate effectively. However, sharing quality information can be a difficult task. Quality demands time and time is a precious commodity. We live in a world of instant communication where speed is paramount. Through texts and comments we leave shortened messages in an effort to communicate yet limit ourselves to trite abbreviations. We are so obsessed with time that even the phrase "OK" must be shortened to merely "k." When we put just a few more seconds of thought into what we share real communication can begin. Take time for quality.

I think this is a problem in reporting nowadays. Two examples come to mind. I am a gamer, and recently I've become jaded and don't trust most game reviews. There is so much pressure to be the first to publish about a game so that they get views, that they look at the game as a chore or job. Each level is tedious. They don't enjoy the experience, leading to skewed reviews. It's the same with news stations. Networks are businesses and they compete for viewers, so they will report information as fact, when it really should be considered rumor. Timely information is more profitable than quality information.
ReplyDeletePeople are too worried about things to be done rather than caring about other people. We need to worry about people more than we do.
