Why We're Giving Up Technology for 48 Hours

October 24, 2014

On Friday, November 7, at exactly 5:30 p.m., I am turning off my phone, my laptop and my iPad and putting them all in a drawer that will not be opened until Sunday evening. The students in my MC300 class are doing the same thing. For 48 hours, we are all going on a “Digital Fast,” the first of its kind at Bentley.

We will all be spending a weekend without Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, texting, email, YouTube, Spotify, and Netflix, as well as “old-fashioned” technology like TVs and video games.
