The Advancement of Technology throughout the years!

For the past two centuries, humankind has made enormous strides in innovation and technological progress. All this significant evolution has greatly benefited man and has also improved his standard of living considerably. The emergence of global computer networks as the Internet is part of one of those significant steps that man has been able to make. This network allows the planet to discover and be informed about the rest of the earth. The Internet marks the arrival of a new media and is just beginning since every day we can find new ways to bring all types of information to our computer. "With billions of pages viewable by a user, the Internet far surpasses all informative databases in the world, as well as all libraries. From books to music to tour guides, everything is on the Internet. A tremendous cultural database Internet is a place where cultures, traditions and religions mix. The Internet offers people freedom never before acquired, a possibility of escape, but also exchange. In my opinion, without these technologies, our society would not be where it is today. Technologies are among us, and they will continue to progress to make our lives easier. It is through its various functions that technology can expand teachers' field of vision, diversify activities and make them more interactive.

Technologies are part of our lives. Instead of focusing on all the negative aspects such as the misuse of social networks, the excessive use of cell phones among young people or the violation of privacy by blogs or social networks, we should instead learn about the usefulness of these when they are well led and all that they can bring so that our society develops more. If everyone were interested in the Internet and knew how to use it, no one would be afraid. In any field, there are abuses, but if we learn to use them properly, I think we could know the various functions to protect ourselves and also to understand the limits. Finally, technologies are present in our lives, and they will continue to amaze us with the quality and speed of their functions. They improve our lives by the amount of information open to all, they inform about everything that happens everywhere in the world, they lead us in the decision making and allow us to update quickly. In education, technologies help the teacher in his teaching materials, and they also give him the chance to go further in his projects with his students. They also allow him to work in collaboration with other schools without moving, to communicate with his students more efficiently. Technology in education makes it possible to go beyond the limits, to move towards real and meaningful learning situations for students. It can even travel students around the world through social networks. It is also essential to demonstrate the importance of new technologies, and their use in everyday life so that there is less abuse and young people know the limits of each. There will always be crooks and fraudsters, and it is not with the arrival of technologies that they have manifested themselves. By identifying the standards, we will limit the exposure of personal data and reduce the damage. Students need to know the usefulness of the media in everyday life so that they, in turn, can use it properly. Technology improves our life experience by its speed, its accessibility and its ability to get rich, and I wonder why in schools we still ask questions about its integration.
