Fall 2013 Group 2

None of us were able to successfully complete the tech-free task. Despite the fact that we were not able to go tech free for 24 hours, each of us were able to devote some amount of time away from technology. For instance, Marti had to balance being a teacher and fulfilling her academic duties, which only allowed her the option to write her experience on paper as opposed to typing it. Though she thought about writing on the chalk board and taking a picture of it. Being in the practice of typing, hand writing the tech-free experience felt awkward for Marti. Rachel was not able ot go tech-free for a whole day, but she was able to go tech-free in the early morning during yoga and meditation. Instead of setting her iPod timer for 30minutes, she practiced without it. Because this practice is usually set to a clock, she finished within a minute of the usual time frame. Erin was under pressure to complete school work so she needed to use her computer, but she cut off Facebook and email and tried not to check the clock.
