Cabo and I discussed an article we reviewed from the Wall Street Journal entitled, "Silicon Valley Now Wary of iPhone.' We discussed vocabulary from the article, including such terms as, 'curtail, 'spawn,' 'ubiquity', and two ways to define the word 'consume.' I selected the article in efforts to pique Cabo's interest, and Cabo made text-to self and text-to-world references, showing the connections he formed between the ideas in the passage, his own experiences and beliefs, and events happening in the world. The article raised themes that resonated with Cabo's own experiences as well as material he's studied previously, and he easily answered open-ended questions, even suggesting one solution to the problem of overusing smartphones. Cabo ironically added that the article does not apply to him, and looked at me with a coy smile. We engaged in an interesting discussion of the merits and social consequences of smartphone usage, especially as seen from the perspective of key figures within the industry especially as seen from the perspective of key figures within the industry from which it 'spawned.'
