Tools That Change the Way We Think

The use of all the new technology has made me think in a new perspective like maybe it is a good thing only if the people know how to control it but if people use it excessively it might end up affecting them negatively.

Technology has given me an upper hand in education in the sense that if I don't know a word I am capable to look it up and come up with an answer in seconds unlike when using a dictionary, it can take up to two minutes just to find the definitions of a word. The new technology does not really affect my concentration since it doesn't really captivate my attention.

The difference between previous generations and modern day generations is that people now a days depend on technology to teach them how to survive, how to think, how make it in life. They have no basic instinct and are dependent on technology for most of their problems. This is not true for all generations but it is for a couple of people. Now older generations relied on their instincts, their knowledge, their thoughts to help them survive in life when things came to a pause.

There is a positive side to the new technology, but once again it depends if the audience know how to even out the usage of technology. It allows us to be informed about life outside our county and country. We are even informed about outer space. So I guess in a way technology is a step forward with society
