What do you think about this? Idea. This is my mid-term paper. Please leave a grade (i.e. A,B,C....), please be fair dont just give like a B-, explian why. Also, state whether you agree or disagree, comments.
Through out the twentieth century people strived to make our life easier. First it
was the creation of an automobile, then the airplane and last but not least was the
innovation of a computer. Computers influence our life in every aspect everything from
the way we obtain information to the way we communicate with other people. As
technology progresses and humans become more dependant on their âcold-blooded
buddyâ a lot of questions arise. Do computers benefit human society or do they change its
progress in a negative aspect?
One of the most beneficiary attributes that technology provide us with, the quick
source of information. Within second it is possible to obtain information from one source,
and distribute such information to millions of people across the globe. Due to innovation
of internet, information can be posted online and be accessed by anyone with the
possession of a computer. Also it is possible to broadcast any information through live
television program which in result will provide thoughts and ideas to its viewers. Many
students and professors as well as professional writers would praise computers due to the
fact that computers allow them to, in the words of Turkle ârevise text, rearrange
paragraphs and experiment with the tone and shape of an essayâ. Such flexibility in
writing would allow âdedicated studentsâ become âbetter writersâ. As for me, I find it
quite easy to write essays or research papers on a computer, due to the fact that I am able
to have proper grammar as well as ability to revise sentences. Another innovation which
had made life of students much easier are calculators. Calculators provide students with
easier and quicker way of understanding and solving difficult equations. Many of such
calculators are also used in calculating parameters of buildings and the way to develop
them. In my experience it is quite impossible to solve all of the math problems by hand,
so in perspective I would rather have calculator guiding me through finding solution to
the equation.
Computers also have many different functions not concerning educational values,
such functions are more social. Many teens and adolescents use chat rooms and virtual
communities to make friends as well as experiment on their personality. Such
experimentations can âprovide valuable spaces for identity playâ, which is so crucial in
development of teens. Such virtual world provides teens with safe-heaven which excludes
dangers of the real world such as â crime, terrorism, drugs, and AIDSâ. Many teens as
well as adults use chat rooms to connect and meet with new people, others use chat rooms
to keep relationships with their present friends which might not reside near them. As for
me, I use online websites to exchange ideas, thoughts as well as to keep up relationship
with my distant friends. I am able to do such functions due to blogs, chat rooms, and
websites. In perspective, technology provides us with quicker and more accurate
information as well as a place were to meet new people or keep a relationship with your
present friends. The technology brings world closer to each other in a sense of
communication with each other from far away places.
Although many people praise technology others might disagree, due to the fact
that technology makes human thought more obsolete and the fact that it distances human
emotions from others. Virtual world can be good place as well as bad for humans, in the
aspect that it derives people from âsharing their real feeling with other peopleâ. It also
provides âillusion of companionship without the demands of friendshipâ for a person,
which might result in isolation of such person to the real world. Many teens which use
chat rooms for establishing who they are might not gain real life experience on how to
âexpress their real feelings with other peopleâ. Other aspects which make human mind
obsolete are calculators which do the solving of complicated problem for the person.
Many students which know how to solve a problem through calculators become confused
and thus get the problem wrong when they are unable to use calculators. Such
circumstances happen to me a lot, if I am unable to use a calculator for solving difficult
equation, often I get the problem wrong or not do it at all. Other aspects which deprive
people from thinking is the fact that word processing can be manipulated in order to
sustain perfect essay, but if writing is involved it is much harder to conduct your thoughts
on paper, thus writing on paper makes a person think before writing. Word processing
takes away the thinking process before writing which results in less thought out process
of writing.
Many other aspects are taking away from people due to their use of computer one
of the most important ones is privacy. Electronic traces are left everywhere, blogging,
chatting online as well as web browsing leave traces which can be used to spy on the
people and their habits. I find it kind of bizarre as well as astonishing that other people
would like to obtain my information through out spying on my web browsing. Although it
makes sense in the end, corporations use such information in order to advertise products
to you, and government uses such information in order to detect any illegal activities which might bring harm to others. As technology becomes more advanced, many people
believe that it is possible that it will make human brain obsolete and detach such person
from the âreal worldâ as well as deprive such person from privacy.
It is quiet impossible to speculate whether or not advancement of technology
would benefits human development. Although there is a lot of good and bad which
comes from technology, many people would still argue both sides of the problem.
Without technology, it is almost impossible to sustain the luxury of life which we live
and the habits which we had developed . In order to encourage positive development of
both technology and humans it is essential to understand how we are effected by
technology as well as directions in which future technology will take us.
