New Technology: A threat or a promise

New technology, a threat or a promise? New technology will be more appropriate to be a promise. It is because nowadays more people are into technology and that means no more pens and papers. Personally, I think using technology is not a bad thing because we can use all the new technologies to do things we want and we can save a lot of things such as pens, papers, time and many more. We can save the environment as well, because we need not use the papers and pens anymore. That is why we can save and conserve the environment.

New technology is a promise as we can do things in a more convenient way such as no matter where we are and we are being assigned to an assignment, we are able to do it conveniently without looking much for the things that are required. We can just do our things anywhere and anytime we want it to be done. We can also multi-task when using technologies as since the new technologies are improving day by day, we are sure of completing our assignments no matter when we are assigned to it and using technologies is a good thing as it benefits both the adults and the kids.

It is such as, the adults can do their work by using the technologies and as for the kids they can do their work using technologies as well, and they can also learn new things via the new technology as nowadays there are more and more educational websites coming up and that can benefit lots and lots of kids. Their parents in a way or another do not need to coach their children so much when they do not have the time to spare, they can count on the educational discs and websites to let their children learn new things. As the time passes by, we are more into technologies rather than those things that we use in the past. That is why if new technologies are going to be up and technologies get to improve day by day, we can be benefited by it.

Nevertheless, new technologies will be a threat as well, because there are also lots of people out there who are not sure of the new technologies and they are unsure of what should be done and what can they do. This will lead them to a misunderstanding and they are very doubtful of themselves. Thus, they feel that new technologies are not that efficient because some parents may also think that although there are educational discs and websites coming up but it does not mean that their child will learn as efficiently, thus, some parents will not encourage new technologies as well. They will also think that if the new technologies are going to be up, their child will be more into the technologies and neglect the things around them. This is why some people think that having new technologies will be a threat.

Therefore, whether to be in the new technologies or not, and whether their opinions towards the new technologies are positive or negative, we should continue to upgrade ourselves no matter when is it. We should always do precautions so as we are not going to doubt ourselves as we do not need others to tell us what to do but to depend on ourselves.
