Reflection About Technology

In today’s society technology, has taken over by having a cell phone, IPad, video games,

By and large, it is of little debate in today’s sophisticated world that technology is of paramount importance. This is inasmuch as people always tend to find a more convenient solution to address their problems. With this in mind, it is quite expected to notice some of its characteristics are somewhat controversial due to its prominent standing; a substantial number of people wonder what role technology has on human’s life. One idea of prominence in this regard is that the more the people rely on technologies, the more they will lose their thinking ability. I personally agree with the statement to some extent. The rationale behind this thesis will be elaborated in the ensuing lines.

Every day the world is changing and things are done differently. Technology has also affected the way students are taught and in which they learn. It has changed the classroom. Technology saves us time and allows us to access material in only minutes. “The Internet and online subscription databases, even as a supplement to the printed works in the library, allow students to see, and force them to consider or reject, points of view that they might never have encountered in decades past” (Gow 4).With all the time technology produces, it also has downsides and it also may have created a less intelligent society.

The clock is ticking, the work is piling up, and with only a few hours to go before sunrise you stop and realize that you have just read some fifty pages and absorbed almost nothing. Some would agree when I say that this situation epitomizes one of the common problems of the Net Generation. With the help of the Internet, not only has every aspect of life gotten faster and more efficient, but it has changed the way people process information and perform tasks. In addition, while technology does have its benefits, the extensive use of the internet is affecting the way people think.

The discourse of medical has been referred to ideas or values that the individual experience through health problem. The discourse of technology has been developing real fast in the contemporary or modern world of everyday life. Medicalisation is largely expanding in our everyday life even when in the old days was not consider as a health problem or as a weakness to the individual to do daily work. An example of medicalisation that has been expanding in the areas of everyday life is menstrual cycle or period. The period is well known among women or girls and they have it every month. As result of a period it causes many problems for women or girls, which it may cause pain in the back or a headache, cramps or bloating, dizzying, vomiting or

Technology has its advantages in many ways and I know firsthand how powerful and convenient today’s technology is. Without it, I would have a lot of trouble getting through my day. I would not be able to get a hold of someone as easy without my blackberry. I am constantly text messaging on it. So much to the point that I trip over stuff while I am walking due to reading a long text. My blackberry is basically my life. It is great to know that if I ever get stranded in the middle of a desert on my way to California, I have roadside assistance on my phone to save me. I

People very often debate whether technology is good or bad. Many people believe that technology can only cause harm to their lives and society, while many others strongly defend the technologies which have made their lives much more leisurely and enriching than it could have been several hundred years ago. In my opinion, both of these views are correct to an extent, but I also believe that what should be examined is not whether technology in its self is good or bad, but rather how we as humans use it.For decades now, television has been accused of contributing to the dissolution of the American family and the destruction of the minds of those who watch it. However, although the TV has been involved in this, the problem roots not with

On April 3rd, 1973, the very first cell phone call was made by a man named Martin Cooper. Martin was using a Motorola DynaTAC 8000x, or as most people know as the very first cell phone. At first glance the 8000x basically looked like some

Most of the time when I am writing a paper, I do not have a choice on what I am writing. But when I do get to choose my topic, then I can write about something that I enjoy and feel passionate about. In my experience with writing, I have chosen many topics. But most of them I probably did not enjoy writing about that particular topic. There are very few papers that I have written where I really enjoyed writing. But the paper that I am going to talk about was different for me because I wanted people to understand my point of view on the subject. And so, I felt compelled to write about the topic that I chose for this particular essay that I wrote in 9th grade. It is about technology, and its role and effect on society.

My older brother, Jack, always excelled at any and all tasks that required a strong sense of reason. Despite his giftedness, Jack never worked well in any group, or even acclimated socially with many other kids. He wasn’t concerned with communicating his ideas to his peers, couldn’t make the effort to consider his words’ effects on other kids, and he was prone to angry outbursts when he didn’t get his way. While most other children grew out of these phases, Jack continues to exhibit these qualities even today at 23.

As far back as I can remember my family and I have taken advantage of technology. The types of technology have changed over the years, along with our usage and dependence on it. Technology is a fundamental part of our lifestyle, including both work and play. What is interesting is that we also have many friends who use very little technology in their day-to-day living. This drastic difference makes one wonder how necessary the technology really is, and whether or not our dependence on it is healthy in the long run. It is really easy to just get caught up in using technology without thinking about the pros and cons.

With the advancements in technology we have been able to accomplish a lot more in life, but in the end there is an argument whether or not these advancements have been positive or negative. Society has become so dependent on technology and its ability to conquer everyday task that some people believe we have became stupid and lazy. However, I feel that that our success in developing technology is a positive thing. We have been able to achieve many accomplishments because of these technologies.

As technology in our world continues to advance and evolve how we interact with one another in society also begins to change. The societal norms adapt to the technology that people now use constantly in their everyday lives, especially regarding phones. Our society has become one where people cannot live without their phones; some can feel like they have no life when they are without their phones. It saddens me to see a world where we can connect with people from anywhere around the world thanks to technology, but at the same time we are more disconnected from the people who are around us as many people spend more time talking and texting with one another using technology than having face to face interaction.

A simple life has a different meaning and a different value for every person. In general, though, getting rid of any excess things to be able to spend time with the most important people and do the things that are most important to have the basic and successful life. It is significant for Americans to live a life of peace and not chaos, a life of essentials not complications. The thought of using technology from the 21st century is useful but useless and demolishing, as well. Because the way the world has developed within inventions of the 21st century, the technology and consumerism abide as a burden to a man’s well-being, expressing the possibility of simplifying one’s life.

Remember the days of the Old West? The women walked around with their parasols or rode in a horse drawn carriage and the men rode fast and furious on their horses. Everything you needed was right there in town: the saloon, the general store, and the barber. When one needed to get somewhere, they would walk. If they needed to travel far, there were steam-powered locomotives. As towns and cities grew larger, it was not so convenient to walk everywhere. There was a need for a machine that could get us around to where we had to go. Technology was becoming a bigger part of the times and the machine we now know today as the automobile was invented.
