impact of technology on society
For the past few years, increasing amounts of people have started to engage with
technology .They follow the latest news about technology and buy it immediately after it is
released. New technologies are invited to make humans live better and easier. Technology has
helped most countries and societies around the globe to grow and to be more modern .Without
technology we cannot commute to different places and we cannot connect with others. The
problem here is that some people are against modern technology because it is not a good
influence to the society. They think that technology is harming the society. On the other hand , I
and most of the people around the world think that technology is very useful to the society in
many aspects not just one and I think all of the technology are effective and good for the people
but it just depend on how people are using these technology . Technology is useful because it
helps educate people, it encourages creativity it helps people connect around the world, and it
helps students learn effectively, it helps the society to deliver their voice to the government.
People claim that technologies are harmful for kids and they are saying parents should
not allow their kids to use devices because it hurts their eyes. According to myeyes.com, wearing
glasses that protect your eyes leans will help keep your eyesight level the same even when you
are watching the TV or any other devices.

students ability in learning, it also it did not show the using technology in learning is harmful or
not useful for the learner.
Technology, despite all its benefits to the society but it has some disadvantages. People
have been known to grow increasingly attached to technology at the expense of social activities
and work. In addition, because technology increase communication, it encourages criminal
behavior. These are negative effects to the society. Cities expends through technology , without
the technology we couldnt find and create new cities because technology like cars helps people
to commutate between long distance city in less time . Most people around the world now agree
that technology influence the society effectively just imagine one day you live without
technology it will be hard to you to life because you cant communicate with people and you
cant go to places that you need without technology. Without technology you cant feel safe
cause you cant call the police if someone attacks you or steal anything from you or you cant
call an ambulance to check on you. The overall effect of technology on the society is positive
otherwise, people would not use it. Technology allows for greater interaction in the society
improves living standards and increase creativity and democracy. Even though there are welldocumented negative uses of technology, its presence makes everyones life better.
In conclusion, the current society has been made a global village courtesy of technology
that has enhances communication. This is a notable advancement in learning institutions,
political arenas, companies and the general society. The resultant impact is improved
productivity and decision making process hence making the society a better place to live.
