1. By using GPS's we ae losing a skill we can self teach called cognitive map. We teach ooursleves this skill by using a reagular map or using landmaks to guide our path. The artical states that GPS's are not allowing our brains to think harder. Because of the fact that GPS's give us a short cut then learning the whole thing or ,in this case, location/ directions.

2. I agree with the author! Technology is just making our lives easier and lazier ! We're drifting away from our old traditions o custums to do cetain things. We all want the easiest way to do things and sometimes dont even have the modviation to do naything without electronic help.

3. This relates to class beacuse we are disscussing how people ceated maps back then and how they had to learn on their own. But now we have a GPS's with witty, women voices to tell us where to go.
