WECHAT App


      In this course Career and Digital Age  it teaches how to use the internet and your computer technology device in a cool way. For example, the class teaches about web browsers, routers and tcp, networking, databases, statistics and analytics, and lastly machine learning. All of these subjects I did not care to know about till now. Its fascinating seeing all what your technology is capable of from making pixel like triangles, rectangles, and circles, move across the screen they way one would like is all what the class teaches.  However, relating to the article WECHAT that was from MIT Technology Review  states the new app is round the clock homework. This app was launched in the year of 2011 and has "650 million monthly active users" and users are still increasing til this very day. The app requires that all students in kindergarten, primary and middle schools to have a account its mandatory. Likewise, students like Zhang Zehao a seventh grader goes to school in the morning and its not over for him teachers have the connect with parents through this app that at everyday at seven a new math homework assignment is assigned and if any problem is wrong one has to correct it and upload on the app by midnight. 

 This is Zhang Zehao ; the pressure for Zhang is a good influence because this app helps the children's who has trouble in math get help. With math one has to do round the clock work because learning math is like learning a different language. 

    WeChat app is a chinese cultural dynamic thats connects teachers and parents together. I wish in the United States we have this app , the saying always stands people raised in other countries are smarter and advance than people who were brought up in the states. I love how the teachers care so much about the child's performance especially at such a young age in kindergarten.

This is how the app looks when an assignment is uploaded. 

This article relates to my profession of study Social Work due to the fact that children are involved.  Also, this helps to see the child's growth in school and a home setting. Social workers varies on where one would want to take the their level of degrees. Likewise, brings to my point whatever job a Social Worker gets would result in working with technology. My direction I would not be working with tech but with children and adults. So, this article has children involved in a positive aspect.
