[Solved] Do social media and instant communication pose obstacles to such reflection and serious thinking?

INSTRUCTIONS:

*This is the prompt from Loyola Marrymount University on commonapp.org* Prompt 1 In his 2010 address to representatives of Jesuit universities worldwide, Fr. Adolfo Nicolas, SJ, Superior General of the Jesuits, discussed imagination. He believes that exercising an imagination which grasps reality and involves “a refusal to let go until we get beneath the surface” is a crucial element of Jesuit education. In the same speech, he worried that today`s instant and global communication technologies discourage such deep reflection and engagement with the real and instead foster a “globalization of superficiality.” Prompt 1 question: To Fr. Nicolas, imagination requires going to the depths of reality and recreating (re-imagining) it. Do social media and instant communication pose obstacles to such reflection and serious thinking? How can college students practice serious reflection in our always connected and instantaneous world?
