Period 3
In the video, “A Vision of Students Today”,
created by Kansas State University, it demonstrates our current system
of how technology is used in classrooms. It starts in an empty
classroom, no speaking, just music, and people have written on the walls
and chairs to describe, ‘If walls could talk”. Then, the classroom is
suddenly filled with students. Not using their mouths to speak about
what they do in class, they use their laptops and notebooks. They show
us how they are constantly distracted by technology.
I strongly believe
that in the video, “A Vision of Students Today”, created by Kansas State
University, shows to me that people are not doing as well in school as
they were 50 years ago without computers, and I believe that technology
has taken over us, our time, and our minds. The students in this video
explain to us, flat out, why our country is failing... technology. I
believe technology has taken control of us, even when it comes to school
work. I heard a girl in the hallway telling her friend she was on Facebook during English. It is now a habit in the human life to need
technology. We could not survive without it, is what some people think.
But look back 100 years ago... we sure seemed fine then! To me, it is
obvious that it is because of technology we are in the state our country
is in today. I'm not saying I hate technology. I myself use it frequently. But, I still believe that it is something like a virus that has spread... and plans on staying
forever, while getting bigger, hammering itself further into our lives.
