Let us begin the lesson today with you giving me your opinion and everything you know about Steve Jobs.
After our discussion please read this biography on his life:
Steve Jobs was born in San Francisco, California, on February 24, 1955, to two University of Wisconsin graduate students who gave him up for adoption. Smart but directionless, Jobs experimented with different pursuits before starting Apple Computer with Steve Wozniak in 1976. Apple's revolutionary products, which include the iPod, iPhone and iPad, are now seen as dictating the evolution of modern technology, with Jobs having left the company in 1985 and returning more than a decade later. He died in 2011, following a long battle with pancreatic cancer.
Then watch this video as a BIO of his life:
Some interested things emerge and let us discuss them:
1. He was adopted because his parents couldn't keep him, what does this make you feel about adoption and /or abortion?
2. He dropped out of college, what are you opinions on this? Would you recommend the same to other people?
3. He was kicked out of Apple, what do you think this says about him?
4. Do you think the Iphone is 'the single most important device of the modern times'?
5. Does this video promote Steve Jobs?
6. His father was a Syrian immigrant, give me your thoughts on this.
Having watched both the Bio and the trailers, what do you think are the strengths of Steve Jobs?
What do you think are his weaknesses?
Having read his full biography it is obvious that he failed in most of his relationships, do you think that the failure of relationships was worth all the success?
