I have a concern that makes me feel
guilty and I need to confess about six
years ago my mom began highlighting
dangerous positive behavior in relation
to technology contrary to what most
adults kept complaining about how
technology was ruining our generations
she insisted that we take advantage of
it she said things I didn’t understand
at the time maybe because I was at a
very young age it was late 2011 when
cell phones became available to most
people
my parents innocently gave me the chance
to pick my Christmas present this year
it was between my favorite doll who
looked just like me or between the
latest cellphone with so much negative
pressure coming from a teachers and
other adults who insisted the bad
effects of this and other technology
guess what I prefer the doll even a cola
Holly you are a school with freedom of
expression and advanced teaching
techniques it was campaigning against
the use of technology demanding that
technology was drowning us my mom alone
against the rest of the world just
insisted on how exciting this new
technology was and how I should learn to
use it the sooner the better let’s
please consider that technology isn’t
just phones it’s mostly everything in
our world today despite the bad press
and some specific cases of addiction the
extreme use of technology I want to show
the grandia’s effects of technology in
the brain even causing people’s brain to
develop differently first of all to
understand the positive benefits of
technology and its relation to the human
body it’s necessary to understand the
brain my brain your brain the human
brain the brain is the most influential
organ in our entire body according to
research done by the Science Museum your
brain is confirmed about a hundred
billion nerve cells this number being
about the same number of trees in the
Amazon forest each cell being connected
to around 10,000 others so the total
number of connections is approximately
a hundred trillion getting to know how
the brain works makes it easier for
scientists to create medicines and tools
for curing diseases brain imaging is a
great example of the humongous advances
in medicine revealing what is going on
inside our brains
according to neuroscience news mapping
the brain in great detail enables us to
observe sophisticated processes this
machine was created to read people’s
minds and therefore it has been used to
study the brain as closely as possible
even when getting to a point in which
the machine can detect whether you’re
lying or not due to the great advances
in technology the science academy of
science is able to analyze how
technology affects the brain directly in
the prefrontal cortex cerebellum and
parental lobe
researchers highlight that the brain of
present generations are developing
particularly due to technology which
also affects communication skills
investigator Horvath examined humans
focused through the brain scans by using
neuroimaging he analyzed frequent
Internet users finding out that they
showed twice as much stuff of activity
in the prefrontal cortex compared to
sporadic users this part of the brain is
essential for short-term memory the and
quick decision-making and therefore
people who use technology more
frequently will most likely take better
decisions when when involving a quick
situation it makes a huge impact in
decision making skills according to
human development for playing video
games can help you be more decisive and
makes you switch tasks tasks without
losing focus which is most commonly
known as multitasking so it creates the
abilities and teaches the brain to adapt
a better technology writer nicholas carr
found out that the rise of Internet is
actually struggling our ability to scan
information rapidly and efficiently
rather than making children stupid
research done by PhD
Jim Taylor shows that the use of
technology on a daily basis even
including video games
drastically improved capabilities such
as time of reaction and a capacity of
identifying details the brain of
children is simply changing evolving
differently compared to those who lived
without these humongous advances a clear
example of this change is how humans are
no longer focused on remember things but
instead they’re focused on remembering
where to look for these things for
instance it’s not very helpful to
remember every single fact about a topic
if it’s even easier to go and search for
this information finding a lot more
detail the fact of not having to retain
all of this information in the brain
allows it to develop in areas such as
critical thinking and in addition
education has also drastically improved
due to the use of technology using smart
phones or computers as devices for
note-taking is an easier and more
efficient way to make notes during class
rather than forcing students to have a
notebook any student will enlighten that
most of the time women’s notes because
teachers talk faster than we write in
fact an average person is able to type
from 38 to 40 words per minute while the
same person is able to handwrite an
average of 16.9 words per minute
so this 23.1 words per minute truly make
a difference
when you are trying to get every detail
that teacher is talking about in other
words if school’s allowed computers or
cell phones for every class students
would be able to take more notes and
their hope for be higher achievers am
nevertheless the use of technology not
only allows students to write faster but
definitely children contain a larger
amount of information in their brains
and get to learn extra topics due to the
fact that technology allows faster
learning and it gives extra time for
teachers to include more profound and
interesting information in their
schedules so altogether medicine changes
their brain changes and
change and altogether people change all
the technological advances dine man’s
world we live in is constantly changing
every single day scientists teachers
among others discover and create tools
that help humanity evolve and make life
easier and safer for everyone but
languages of technology at schools
students would not only be would not be
hurt but instead they would definitely
have more tools in order for them to
success we have to realize that
technology contribute on a daily basis
not just using a cell phone for
communication or watching Netflix but
much more than that technology exists
today is knowledge progress and cures so
technology today is the key to success
