Nowadays, technology is very widespread among people and is becoming an integral part of our lives. Consequently, today technology is now depended on by many teenagers. I will try to compare the advantages and disadvantages of this development and finally decide if it is positive or not.
On the one hand, there are some positive aspects of being dependent on technology. To begin with, teenagers can instantly find information online, instead of going to the library and spend a lot of time. In addition, they can watch educational videos and use apps that help to understan subjects well. This beneficial for self studiers. Furthemore, technological improvements allow students to study anytime and anywhere. This is beneficial for online colloborations, making project together through distance improving communication and teamworking skills.
On the other hand, there are also drawbacks of being reliant on technology. One major concern is loosing creativity and critical thinking. Due to the use of technology in their daily life day by day will lose their essential skills, such as problem-solving, creativity and critical thinking. It might lead to decrease of thinking independently. Furthemore, online activities, such as social media, games and entertainment apps can easily divert students’ attention from their studies, reducing concentration and productivity, also desire to read.There are also health issues to concider, including eye strain and reduced physical activity.
In conclusion, there are indeed some potential advantages of being dependent on technology by students. However, I firmly believe that this development should be seen as negative because it has a number of consequences such as distraction and.losing essential skills.
