    EFFECTS OF DIGITAL

    TECHNOLOGY
     
    PREPARED BY: DESIREE CLARISSE
    B. DELA CRUZ
    Instructor
    As a result of
    the digital revolution,
    the world of education is
    currently undergoing a massive
    transformation.
    We are living in a world where technology in the
    classroom is advancing ever so rapidly. We are able to
    access information, collaborate with peers and
    professors, and create new types of content in a vast
    number of ways...
    Much has been made about
    the new generation of
    technology-savvy students’
    currently in and entering
    college.
    These students possess unprecedented
    levels of skill with information
    technology; they think about and use
    technology very differently from earlier
    students cohorts.
     

    The ever changing perception of the role


    of technology in our society provides
    educators with a myriad of challenges and
    problems for the curriculum.
    Technology is alternately seen as a major
    source of society's problems.
    WHY ?
    There are two roots of
    this issue.
    First,
    college students of today matured as
    technology matured they can’t live without using
    a computer or smartphone in everyday life.
    Homeworks and other school activities are often
    plagiarized by students and gain no learning at
    all.
    Second,
    even if students want to avoid the
    distractions of technology, the use of
    computers is a necessity in today’s
    educational systems, thus unavoidable.
    These two points support the
    argument that students of the digital
    age are literally wired differently in
    productive habits than previous
    generations.
    As an obvious point, some students are very
    responsible and constantly stay on task. This
    issue is not about the said students, it is about
    those who struggle to focus on school because
    they want an education but are tempted by
    technology.
    So what are students to do when a paper is due
    in a week but browsing through new music is so
    much more inviting and using facebook is much
    exciting ? ? ?
    The issue of technology distracting from
    productivity is greater than the well being of
    students, it affects the nation’s future by our
    investment in the competence of today’s
    students.
    Note that society is in desperate need of
    individuals capable of finding sustainable
    solutions to a variety of challenges and the need
    for future citizens who can function effectively
    in a modern technological society.
    These needs have prompted many
    leaders to suggest that education now
    need to implement methods of teaching
    that can enhance the problem solving
    ability of students.
    So whether it be on the students, parents,
    locale, or college, the instruction of
    productive habits must be addressed,
    discussed, and developed greatly to insure
    the progression of people as a whole.
    By embracing new technologies and by
    involving students as planning partners,
    we look forward to the next wave of
    innovation with anticipation instead of
    dread.
    Oh what a brave new world lies
    ahead of us!
    Thank you!
