Technology Has An Important Asset Nowadays

It seems odd to me to write a paper about the importance of technology in education. While there may still be skeptics within the field of education, I would imagine that most people would agree that a technology rich environment enhances a child's education at least to some degree. Even teachers who are reluctant to infuse technology into their lesson plans would have to see the merit of students using technology consistently in classrooms. Most of the recent research articles I've read on technology and classroom learning conclude not only that there is an increase in student achievement in technology rich classroom environments, but also an increase in student

The internet is the easier way for people to communicate with each other. It has made the world smaller by bringing people together everywhere and any time. This invention has important tools for people to contact and it has changed their way of communication in today busy world. In fact people are becoming totally dependent on the internet as a way of communication in their daily life, business and work. The limitation of old communication tools has made the use of internet for communication is wider all over the world .

The internet has helped people get access to research and information within seconds. Research is an important use of the internet. People are able to research anything online by using Google and other search engines. People are now able to access information instead of using books and articles in the library. In the article 25 Years Ago Everything Changed Forever, it states “the Web has become not just a repository for knowledge and sharing beyond the dreams of any library, but one of the most unique and powerful tools in history.” Millions of articles can be found online just for one topic alone which is why the internet is considered such a powerful tool. Also, people are able to learn and translate languages. Google translate allows people who speak different languages to communicate or for people to simply translate texts. Websites and programs found online can also help people learn new languages. The

As technology becomes more and more prevalent in classrooms everywhere, questions arise regarding the benefits and drawbacks on introducing technology to students at a young age. Technology is a key component in many of today’s educational settings; however, there are concerns as to whether technology is being used as an aid and resource or as a crutch and whether or not technology is replacing teachers. Despite these concerns, according to Barron, Harms, and Kalaydjian (2003) the use of technology is increasing in classrooms across America. Teachers are using technology to perform low-level tasks, but not high level tasks. This could possibly be because many teachers are not comfortable with the skills required to integrate

Technology, an indispensable necessity to most people’s life just as air, food and water did. The amount of its advantages, which change our life into a better one, is enough to prove its own value. Technology penetration has been grown fast than a few decades back. It has become one of the commodities in our lives, however it can as well be an invasion on personal space (John Thackara, 2006: 3).

Canadian lives has changed dramatically over the course of time, thanks to technology. Some people may ask themselves if this is for the better. Are the benefits worth the costs? Have we become too lazy? These questions travel throughout our heads and we try to weigh the value of technology. Which one out weights the other? In my opinion I believe technology is good. Technology has improved medical care by improving life expectancy, making health care more accessible. There is no more waiting for a walk-in clinic. Information is sent quickly through the web. Well research is now more efficient and accurate. Technology has made it easier to communicate, process and find information on a drop of a dime. People use social media such as Facebook and Twitter to communicate. As well as their cell phones to text call take picture well they are on the go or on a trip. Not only can cell phones keep you connected they can also keep you entertained with game apps or videos. Technology also helps with crime investigations. Now with forensic science technology helps with crime scene investigations trying to figure out what actual happened. You can trace shattered glass. Find out which DNA matches, or if these fingerprints are old or new. Take 3-D pictures so you can see all the important detail a regular picture would miss. Technology also has helped improve education. Students and teachers both use technology either to learn or teach. Teacher like to use simulations to help demonstrate

According to Seda (2009), the organization of government accounts in Indone-sia was originally rooted in the Dutch budgetary system in the colonialial era, called Indische Comptabiliteitswet (ICW) and instituted in 1867. After gaining independence, Indonesian politics began ‘the old order era’ marked by the rule of its first president, Soekarno. During this time, the new state adapted the Dutch budget system, which was highly centralized and consisted of two sim-plified groups - income and expenditure, without a system of checks and bal-ances by level or part of government. The expenditures side included routine expenditure and capital expenditure and the central government held complete authority to allocate the budget and formulate a development program. The law Number 5 Year 1974 regulated the basic principles of local government, however, the state system in practice was still centralized in all manners (Smoke & Lewis, 1996). The second president, Soeharto, also ran the government in a centralistic, authoritarian style, therefore the budgetary system remained both formulated and decided upon by the central government. This only changed in the aftermath of the financial crisis in 1999.

There has been a tremendous amount of technological advancements in recent decades, causing society to become heavily reliant on technology. These days, almost everyone has access to phones, computers, and the internet. These devices are helpful in many ways, but they have also unfortunately become a sort of extension to the human body. Sure, they allow people to quickly communicate with those far away from them, but what about relationships with the ones in the so-called real world? In “Can You Hear Me Now?” M.I.T. professor and award-winning author Sherry Turkle discusses how technology is damaging peoples' relationships, as well as their ability to communicate. By using technology to hide behind screens, give up privacy for validation, and divide attention between multiple people, relationships and communication skills are, in fact, harmed by the extensive use of technology.

If asked to completely unplug from every means of technology in daily life, how many would be able to do it? How many could simply read a book instead of watch television or a movie? How many could perform their jobs without a computer? How many could walk to work instead of driving a car? But maybe more than anything else, how many could go without their phones? Even for one day. As a society, it would be impossible to imagine a world without technology. It has become such a massive part of everyday life for a majority of people. Whether it is used for work, entertainment, social networking, or simply killing time, technology has continued to change, for better or worse, how things are accomplished.

Technology in the purest sense of the word, is the application of knowledge in order to develop or enhance something. From this definition, we can see that the development of technology dates back to ever since Homo-Sapiens were alive. From the creation of fire, to pencil and paper, all these are considered technologies. Although, in recent times there have been debates on whether or not the development of innovations in technology have been impacting us as a culture and as a society. Some argue that not only has technology made our lives better, but it has enhanced it better than what ever could be expected. In contrast to this, some believe that with the use of constant technology, there is a degradation in our sense of interaction and connection. Without a doubt, technology is the advancement of our species, and there is a need to balance unwavering innovation with social obedience and conservatism.

Technology plays significant role in today’s society. With advances in technology, the market of smartphones has experienced a significant growth since Apple introduced the iPhone in 2007. Technological advances have also paved way for wearable devices as the next generation of mobile technology. A wearable device is a small electronic device which can be worn on the body so that an individual can freely use it even when moving3. An example of such wearable technology is a smartwatch.

Internet is still an interesting thing that gives many ease and fun for all of people who access it. Because of it, many people in Indonesia from the various ages, various occupations and various situations access Internet or have a desire to access it.

This taxation policy makes Indonesia’s PSC a regressive one. It is simply because the rate is fix regardless of the contractor’s revenue. However, table 2.2 also shows that the current general income tax rate has been decline from 35% in 1994 to 25% in 2010, as a result of government efforts to attract aggressive investment, particularly in upstream petroleum activities.
