Digital Smarts - Snapchat Explained
You are here
According to Snapchat CEO Emily White, computing has evolved from being a tool for solving problems to a medium for sharing feelings for young users. Snapchat is a popular messaging service that allows users to send text and photos that disappear after being opened by the recipient. If what White says is true, this may explain the complaint that young technology users know how to communicate, but have no idea how the technology works nor how to put it to use to solve problems. This could also explain why there seem to be fewer young adults looking to enter computer related fields in the workforce.
