In these modern days, technology has been an essential in our modern life. No matter in work or in school, technology has been widely used in many different ways. For example to transfer information, organize management, and also education.
Technology has become an essential to human. Big companies that involve in major business had been reliable to technology. Without technology, their work performance will never be efficient to compete with other competitors in order to success. Furthermore, in human’s basic life, it has played an important role. Technology that involves in our daily lives such as laptop/notebook, mobile phone, microwave, digital camera and etc, are individually essential in daily life.
The society had relied on technology until the stage they forgotten their values. For example, human became less tolerant. In fact, expectations of human became high when something is not done in an efficient way. The other major problem is the social effect of technology. For example, portable music player has been push to the market vigorously. Many people are able to afford a music player. Therefore, as you can see in public places, many people place headphone in their ears. By doing this, human has become so selfish that they ignore everything that happens around them. Even if someone for example a nanny falls on her feet, nobody will care to even help her up. Such example has proves it all.
On the other hand, society has become less motivated due to the existent of technology. In this new era, task is always done with the advance technology. Low supervision or sometimes none at all, takes place in this kind of process. People had become extremely dependent on productivity. Technology made life much easier that we had taken full advantage of it. Being more efficient doesn’t define to the term laziness, but laziness is usually the motivator behind productivity. Human just want to get their job done fast so that they have more time to rest.
In the olden days, when the young people were bored and wanted to do something during their leisure time, they would do outdoor activities. In this generation, when teenagers claim that they are done with their homework and have nothing to do, they spend most of their time with technology devices, such as listening to songs with their portable music player, calling friends with mobile phone and gaming with video console. These have affected their daily life style and characteristic that some are suppose to be inside the classroom yet they are in cafeteria chatting, online gaming. Some are doing research but at the end they’re watching pornography and others are in Arcade. This thing have been known and seen by older, educator, parents and government as well, but yet still neglected or we can say also unseen.
In conclusion, technology has its advantages and disadvantages. But mankind had misused and had taken full advantage on it. For an instance, it has become a treat to all mankind such as workers got retrenched because they had been replaced by machines in order to increase productivity. Therefore, a deep study upon the use of technology has to be done in order to balance the relationship between technology and mankind. So that technology can be fully utilize without bringing chaos.
