For a start is necessary to consider the vital place that technology have in our time, we use technology everyday for all kind of stuff, for example the personal computer is now a part of routine, practically everyone use the computer everyday for check the email, chat, surf the web, do homework, play, etc. Obviously that influence also reflect in knowledge in general, by that I mean that technology is a tool that practically all kind of knowledge use, especially math, because allow to solve complex exercise in seconds.
I have studied several careers, and in everyone we make a intense use of technology, I studied 2 kind of engineering and I’ve used computers for solve a lot of problems, for different classes, when I enter psychology I think that we never gonna used a computer in classes, but I was very wrong, in statistics we use it, all the time, for solve and calculate correlations between different psychological variables, so that just probe me that technology is everywhere. But even when technology is used everywhere, in all kinds of works and knowledge so diverse like biology, anthropology or math, we have a strange and bizarre, problem, grownups in general don’t like technology is a normal thing to see a grownup shouting to a computer because the computer doesn’t work, or his cell phone doesn’t call, or the microwave doesn’t get on, so that’s a huge problem that we need to face, for example here in psychology we have a lot of problems, because a lot of teacher doesn’t know how to use new technologies and that cause that we have delays in receiving our grades or confusion with the emails for coordination of different works, so we need to work on that.
So my conclusion would be that we need to assume that technology is already here and we need to accept that, and learn how to make a profit about it, a lot of people make resistance to technology, I think that’s stupid use it doesn’t mean we have to move away of people, we need to take advantage of technology, embrace it, so we can enjoy all the benefits.
