Advantage and disadvantage

of technology

Prepared byZiyad Siso

Technology is the electric machines and systems that most people use

daily. Technology has developed a lot during those years, and two

important devices that most people use daily are the cellular and

computer. The strongest advantage that technology can bring us is the

much easier communication, and entertainment.

What is technology??

Technology and our Society

Technology has had and will continue to have a huge impact on

our society. It has changed everything we do today the way we

dress, way we get around, way we communicate, starts trends,

what we do for a living pretty much everything we do has or will

be impacted by technology.

Communication Today

Most people today communicate with other people through

technology more so than in person. A good example of this

would be think of how many times you text people a day and

compare it to how many times you have a face to face

conversation with someone. Most of us will communicate more

through technology.

Cell phoneAlternatively referred to as a cell, cellular, and cellular phone, a cell phone, which

is also sometimes abbreviated as cp is a mobile phone or portable phone that

enables a user to communicate almost anywhere in the world. The cell phone was

invented by Dr. Martin Cooper who led a team of developers at Motorola and

made the first cell phone call in April 3, 1973 at Motorola.

Some types of technology

The Internet is a global network connecting millions of computers.

More than 100 countries are linked into exchanges of data, news and

opinions. According to Internet World Stats, The internet will have

nearly 3 billion users, about 40 percent of the world's population, by the

end of 2014.

Internet

What is the difference between Internet and internet?

Internet with a capital "I" refers to the entire Internet

(meaning the biggest collection of networks on the planet).

Internet with a lowercase "i" refers to any group of

networks that are connected together.

In the late 1950's the Advanced Research Projects Agency

(ARPA) was founded in the United States with the primary focus

of developing information technologies that could survive a

nuclear attack.

The history of Internet

what is the difference between hardware and software??

Software is a general term used to describe a collection of computer

programs, procedures, and documentation that perform some task on

a computer system.

Hardware is best described as a device that is physically connected to

the computer or something that can be physically touched. A CD-

ROM, monitor, printer, and video card are all examples of computer

hardware.

One of the biggest things on the internet is social media.

Everyone uses social media and there is tons of it some include

Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, Skype YouTube and much more.

Social media has become so popular that it’s taking away from

peoples lives.

DISADVANTAGES OF TECHNOLOGY

1. Most technological devices rely on electricity, so if power is

lost, device cannot be used .

2. Technological devices tend to be expensive, so poor cannot

afford them, and segregation increases.

3. Interaction between people is less important now.

4. Some technological devices emit radiation which could be

dangerous to the environment and our health.

5. Technology could be used in the wrong way to cause harm

natural techniques developed by our forefathers.

DISADVANTAGES OF TECHNOLOGY

Conclusion

I Believe that new Technology is a problem if we keep heading in the

direction we are going.

People need to slow down and get out, you should be able to put down a

game or your phone and focus on maintaining relationships and an active life

style.

Technology has sadly taken control of man peoples lives everywhere you

look.

It is hard to walk through a mall without seeing someone or a group of

people on their phones.

I strongly believe people need to step back and take a look at how often they

use technology and how often they engage in a social setting face to face not

by texting or using Facebook.
