What new problems might be created because we have solved this problem?5. What sort of people and institutions might acquire special economic and political power because of technological change?6. What changes in language are being enforced by new technologies, and what is being gained and lost by such changes?Students answer these questions by doing research online.  At least six scholarly sources must be employed to answer the questions.Part 1: Project TopicChoose a technology to question in your final project in preparation for your presentation at the Online Technology Conference and answer the following questions about it:What is it?Why did you choose it?At this point, what do you think the answers to      the six questions that Postman asks will be?
