Assignment 6

With the current pandemic sweeping the globe I've been relying on technology even more than I have in the past. I am mainly engaging with google platforms and blackboard for my online school work. The biggest impact of the social distancing order is on my personal life. I'm still working a few days a week under reduced hours so the impact on that is smaller than some. One positive to come out of the distancing order is that my family is spending a lot more time together. Looking forward to when some of the restrictions are lifted I think people will be excited to get back to normal but they may be more cautious of how they spend money. They also may be more prepared year round as a precaution if something like this should ever happen again. It could also change how families raise their children and the potential issues that could come with their immune systems. As a future educator, I think this pandemic could reduce classroom sizes and creating more strict hygiene policies around hand washing. I also believe the janitorial staff will have a harder job of cleaning because they will be deep cleaning more frequently to avoid the spread of any sickness.
