trapped in the ozone layers, these are all consequences of human technology and scientific revolution.This idea that humans have created a forever changed world and history is Anthropocene, termed by Eugene Stoermer, Dr Crutzen in the Article, A Man Made World published by The Economist. According to the two chemists, humans are living in an age in which the planet has become an innocent bystander in the every growing science and technology of human usage. Similarly author Bruno Latour claims that mankind

Today, technology is virtually inescapable, but has it improved education and learning? Is it possible that the ways in which we use technology have made us worse readers? Are we all becoming a bunch of non-critical readers with eight-second attention spans (Maybin)? In order to even attempt to answer these questions, as well as the essential question above, one would have to define literacy. According to the New Oxford American Dictionary, “literacy” refers to “the ability to read and write,” and

second hand experiences about how the internet is reducing people's ability to absorb information. Many people have different opinions on technology. The ongoing debate is whether or not the internet is affecting people, mostly the younger generations, in a bad way or in a good way. Andrea Lunsford, an English professor at Stanford University, states that technology is not hurting students, but it is helping students.

Not only that technology has keeped me close to my family but it also helps to keep me in touch with the world. To clarify, it helps to keep me updated with all the current events. Many times, I have seen an argument or multiple posts about the same event taking place but I do not always know what’s happening. If something is fascinating or influential, I like to go look up the topic and read more about it. Technology has also helped me keep up with the new terminology; every once in awhile I see

One can appreciate the modern technology and how it simplified life, but fail to use it to the full extent. Throughout these past decades, technology has brought both advantages and disadvantages to the humankind. One of the disadvantages deals with government involvement, giving them the access to information and the power to make sure they have everything under control which leaves its users with limitation and undemocratic.

I agree with the main argument made by Pinker in her article “Can Students Have Too Much Tech?” however I believe she doesn’t fully understand how bad the problem is. Technology can serve as a valuable tool when applied properly, it can also have a negative impact on a child’s ability to develop socially and mentally as well as hamper their ability to absorb information.
