Are we too dependent on computer?

Computer is Everything!!

Nowadays, young people are booming use a computer to open up the internet to do social networking or playing games on the internet site. They can also be benefitted by these, so when they grow up they will get much used to the computers. Also they can get a satisfying job very fast, because in the future a very few of the occupations does not use computers. Apart from this computers are also used in schools since about 1960, because students also get benefitted from computers. In addition the educators use technology to teach more effectively. Students can also use computers for each subject they learn. A calculator in mathematics map-making tool in geography or as a text editor. Moreover, students can have online tutor, find information through internet, type up and print their assignments. Students can get as much information they need and teachers can get connected to the parents through internet, whenever they want. There are two different opinion about this topic. Check this out.

People who are too dependent on computers said that they are losing their ability to function without a computer. Memorization is a thing of the past, we now depend on our cell phones to have the phone number of everyone we know and we no longer can even remember the phone number of our parents or friends. We no longer worry about what we are writing or typing because we all use a word processing program that has spellchecker and checks for grammar mistakes. So as you can see we depend on computers too much and are losing our ability to memorize, type, spell, or even write a grammatical correct sentence.

Those who are not too dependent on computers show their opinion that they allow us to perform better and produce more. Computers are tools, and you can never be too dependent on tools. Tools allow us to perform better and produce more. When I was in high school, research meant a trip to the library, finding the right book, and then taking notes with pencil and paper. This time, research is going online and cutting and pasting. It is bad, because it makes us really dependence on that machine.

The conclusion is how we divide it. Whether we are in an urgent or not to use computer, so we have to know when we must use that machine. Of course, the computer is the only machine that is very effective at all to use when doing a job, but be careful because they can affect your mind.
