TECHBOON_OR_BANE_LEXTER1321

= TECHNOLOGY ﻿ = = Boon or B ﻿ ane? =



Technology can be both boon or bane, it just depends on the person who uses it; how and where he uses technology. Originally, technology is for the advancement of life, it is created for humans to have wider sense to gather information, to make things easier and faster. Through the years, technology has influenced humans a lot and it seems as though humans cannot leave without it anymore. Man had enjoyed the luxuries it gives and due to this convenieces, man being the most curious creature uses it to find self satisfaction. And unluckily there are people who's self-satisfaction is to see destruction of properties or even lives.



Technology is a thing to be thankful or boon especially in the fields of education for it creates a brand new atmostphere of learning. The things which cannot be brought in school because of their massive sizes of are very far to reach and cost so much can be seen and heard which makes learning easier through audiovisual presentations. Another benefit is that students are more convenient and can find the necessary information they need in an instant through the computers and internet. The knowledge learned are updated and they can easily connect to the world. The different gadgets being produced are very much intelligent which suites the need of man, getting what it want in an instant. Through these amazing technologies, education becomes free and everywhere. Everyone can now learn not only in the classroom which is traditionally teacher dominated.

So when does technology becomes a bane? It becomes a curse if it becomes a threat for life and the future. Well, I am not simply talking about atomic bombs or nuclear bombs but also for the greater destruction man can create for himself, the destruction of the minds of people and when it happens, it will be a total catastrophe. In the field of education for example, if technology is being used to corrupt the minds of the students and for them to create a crime, that would be the greates threat for human race. If technology will be used to make robots who will provide all the works that a man needs and are supposed to do, that is when man becomes irrelevant. If technology becomes the answer for all the problems for man had made all things complicated that only machines can solve them, that is when man becomes stupid.

//** Technology is the key for the future, without it we cannot advance. Therefore, we must not abuse it to make it bane ot threaten the human race, rather we must use it for our benefit to get the best out of it! **//
