Technology: Boon or Bane
Technology
is in our hands. We can use it to build or destroy.
“Is
Technology a BOON or BANE?”
Stated
more simply is it:
• A BLESSING or a CURSE?
• A BLESSING or a DETRIMENT to a
person’s development?
Technology is BOON
Technology
is a blessing for a man. With technology there is a lot that we can do which we
could not do then.
Technology
contributes much to the improvement of the teaching- learning process and to
the humanization of life.
With
TV, you can watch events as they happen all over the globe.
Your
teaching and learning can be more novel, stimulating, exciting engaging with
the use of multimedia in the classroom.
Many
human lives saved because of speedy notifications via cell phones.
With
cellphones, web cams you will be closer to someone miles and miles a way.
Technology is BANE
When
not used properly, technology becomes a detriment to learning and development.
In Education, technology is Bane
when.
The
learner is made to accept as Gospel truth information they get from the
Internet.
The
learner surfs the Internet for pornography.
The
learner has a uncritical mind on images floating on televisions and computers
that represent modernity and progress.
The
TV makes the learner a mere spectator not an active participant in the drama of
life.
The
learner gets glued to his computer for computer assisted instruction unmindful
of the world and so fails to develop the ability to relate to others.
We
make use of the Internet to do character assassination of people whom we hardly
like.
Because
of our cell phone, we spend most of time in the classroom or in workplace
texting.
We
use overuse and abuse TV or film viewing as a strategy to kill time.
