Debate: technology is more a boon than a bane to society. Do you agree? (Clenn)
Side: YES

Yes I agree. There are useful informations on the social network. Useful informations such as articles and links can help us save time while doing work as we do not have to search things slowly. For example, if we are busy with work and do not have time to visit the library, we can just take out 5 minutes of our time and visit the social network and we can find the thing we want very soon and easily. Therefore, technology is more of a boon because it helps us seach informations easily and it saves time.Written by Yelyn Chua

I think that technology can be useful to our life.First of all it can be use to express our feeling through networking sites like twitter or facebook.Secondly technology can also make our life easier like do a drawing on the internet than you drawing a picture.Without technology people will need to take face to face but with the use of technology you just have to send a message and do not need to travel so far to meet the person.(By Jack)

Technology allows us to find information easier because some people sometimes do not have time to go to the library to find information from the books so using the technology to find information is much more convienient. We can also use technology to kill time like using your handheld device to play games but be careful not to play too much or your grades will go down (Terry)

Debate: technology is more a boon than a bane to society. Do you agree? (Clenn)
Side: YES

Technology has more advatages than disadvatages, as social networks allow people from different parts of the world to communicate with each other.For example facebook is one of the most popular social network. Most people have an facebook account as they can discuss their projects or any other assignments on it. Another popular social network is wikipedia this network allows people to post informations that they know about the world this helps so many people in the world who are keen to know about the world.So i think that technology has more advatages than disadvantages to the society.

Debate: technology is more a boon than a bane to society. Do you agree? (Clenn)
Side: YES

Yes, i agree. Technology is now used by almost everybody in the world. And also people of all ages uses technology, either for entertainment or just for reading news articles online. It is very useful for housewifes who are always at home to connect with their friends online since they dont have the chance to go out and socialize. Students may also go online to ask their teachers or friends if they have any doubts about studies. It also depends on how the user of technology uses it. With technology, we could clear our doubts about the social media.
Debate: technology is more a boon than a bane to society. Do you agree? (Clenn)
Side: YES

In my opinion,I agree to technology being more of a boon than a bane in society.In the first place,technology was created and developed so that life would be made easier for us.It has indeed made our life easy,comfortable,simple and luxurious.Technology has gifted mankind with various boon but I feel that technology have blessed mankind with two very important aspects-facility of communication and creation of time.(Point)Facility of communicationCreation of phones,fax,paging services,video conferencing are examples of a few communciation facility that the human mind has been able to conveice with the aid of technology.All these have made any parts of the world easily assesable with the internet.Technology has ensured that one can communiciate with anyone on land,in air or under the sea.(Elaboration+Evidence)Create of timeWith computers,it can do more things at less time with its ability to save time and human efforts.Its ability to work on data and to reach the logical end of a particular task is priceless.But however,they are programmed by humans and do not have their own personal thinking.They would then not be able to do things that only humans can do and be given other tasks.Therefore,in the modern world people juggle more tasks and responsibilties at the same time of being efficent and productive.They would then be needed to multi task.(Elaboration+Evidence)RebuttalThis is where the disadvantage part of technology comes.When multi-tasking,it deprives a human being from enjoying his task because he no longer focusses on the task at hand but rather focusses on the process of juggling many tasks at the same time.Such an activity also leads to unneccesary stress.Stress is the bane of technology.With computers doing most of the things,unemployment occurs.(Elaboration+Evidence)With all these evidences,I can conclude that technology is more of a boon than a bane.(by wei hao)

I Believe That Technology Is A More Of A Boon In Society Because We Can Do A lot Of Things With The Computer. We Can Communicate With Friends Or Relative From Far Away Places Like "Facbook" Unlike The Snail Mail. If You Were To Compare The Difference Between How Long It Takes To Send A Mail Using The Snail Mail And An E-Mail, The E-Mail Is The Fastest. A Letter Sent Can Take Days To Reach A Particular Person However It Only Takes A Second For An E-Mail To Reach Into Someone's Inbox Within Seconds. Therefore, The Efficiency Between The Power Of Technology And Without Technology Is Extremely Big.- Kenny

They say younger people have shorter attention spans, thanks to technology. If that’s the case, then we need to tailor our pedagogy for more engaging activities. People who are anti-technology still want us to teach the way people have for hundreds of years in a method call intensive-explicit – I stand in the front of the classroom and tell you what you need to know.Is that how we learn nowadays? Let’s say I wasn’t helpful and didn’t provide a definition of intensive-explicit instruction, but you wanted to know what it meant. What would you do? Google it, of course. That’s the power of technology: I can learn so much about the world through my own sense of discovery. The trick for today’s teachers is to instill that sense of discovery, and traditional intensive-explicit instruction will not foster that independence.It’s not about throwing technology into the classroom for the sake of having bells and whistles. It’s about teaching kids that these wonderful devices and programs are powerful tools that can help expand their minds and creativity.But the naysayers believe technology stifles creativity. Go to this website then come back and continue your argument. Thanks to Web 2.0, we have the ability to create, manipulate and communicate in ways unheard of in a traditional classroom. Fifteen years ago, I wasn’t able to work on a project with my classmates via Google Talk and the collaborative tools that Google Drive provides. Now the journalism class I teach can use Drive in the same way a professional newsroom would use a news-editing program – and it’s free!Technology gives teachers tools that we could never have without a lot of preparation and supplies. Plus, these tools are available out-of-the-classroom, so kids can continue their learning when the bell rings. I create video lessons on a new concept that the students must watch at home. When they come to class, they can apply their skill and knowledge of the concept, and I can assess their knowledge and make corrections on the spot. It’s called the flipped classroom, and it’s a very good way to infuse technology into modern teaching standards.The argument that kids can’t learn life skills through technology is preposterous. The problem is that people see technology as just Angry Birds, Facebook, YouTube music videos, and word processors that fix your spelling and grammar problems. That does exist, but so do tools that can enlighten your mind like nothing else.

Yes, I do agree that technology is more of a boon than a bane as it has improved all kinds of work in our daily life, without technology, there's no google, which means there's no extra information that we could find on the internet.

It's more of a Boon because today I saw Bane get his ass kicked by Batman in The Dark Knight Rises ;)

This explains alot. Technology also helps alot when u need to do a research or studies.

Side: YES

The dividends associated to technology is far more numerous that the cons. Whether is is a boon or bane depends largely on the user himself. Nonetheless, let us not narrow of thinking. While some people make use of the web cam chats to communicate with relatives abroad, others are misusing it for cheap discussion. The number of despicable characters using chats for ...is phenomenal these days! So to say, it all depends on the mentality of the user.

Im sorry to be anal, but technology has been around since the wheel.and in the sixties I belive they had motor cars, phones, wireless, TV. penicillin xrays etc, you get where I;m going though.In the fifties Child Birth was still a serious concern.Recently my step daughter was told she had a degenerative eye disease and would be blind before she was 30.however the doctors replaced her lens with an artificial one and replaaced her iris (I think).A vaccine for small pox etc I could keep going on. It is a direct result of technology which has allowed the species to be so succesfull.sorry to ramble, peace all (and forgive my spelling)

Side: YES

yeah definitely technology is more a boon to a society bcoz its one of the main reasons why we are leadin this wonderful life full of facalties and amenities right now. even a small kid surfs internet now if he gets a small assignment in his school...the advantages of IT spread to huge distances and no possible precise argument 4 dis exists. but anything that has advantages is bound to have disadvantages. im neglecting these demerits bcoz even if each and every person of this world neglects and stops using this wonderful technology, the bad from this world is not gonna end. the ones who use this technology falsely now will continue to find different methods to violate and do illegal crimes even after this technology era is put an end to....thus at the end of the day this proves to be more of a boon than a bane to the society and the welfare of the society is totally dependant upon the one who uses it.

Side: YES

Technology revolutionizes the way we live, in an overall positive way. Along the years, technology have provided us with numerous platforms for us to enhance our way of life. It automates tedious and laborious chores such as washing clothes, mopping the floor and climbing the stairs. Obviously, these give us ease and comfort in our lives as we no longer need to dedicate ourselves to these jobs, allowing us to have a more carefree and less tiring life, significantly improving our quality of life. Although it would be unfair to disagree technology threatens our job security, it does however, serves to displace low skilled workers and shift them towards higher skilled industries. By automating simple, yet tedious jobs, it replaces many of these low-skilled workers, forcing them to upgrade and improve themselves to fit in a higher skilled industry. This also means they enjoy better wages, allowing them to have a better and more comfortable life, hence certainly improving their lives.In such a case, technology is more of a boon than a bane to society, considering the overall effect it has on society.

Yes I agree. Tecnology is more like a boon then a bane as tecnology helps people who live in far places can communicate with each other and it helps us, teenagers to burn time by playing computer games and listening to music and go socail networking sites and blah blah blah blah blah...you get the idea right?

Yes I agree. Technology make us live longer and healthier lives. This is because of (advanced) technology, when we fall sick badly, we can go to the doctor for consultation. Also, if we are very sick and the doctors needs to operate a operation on us, advanced technology makes it easiler and safer for us. For example of a boon of technology to society; is:Women rarely die in child birth (nowdays).Written by Scarlett

I feel that technology is a basic block in our modern life. Creation of phone, fax, paging services, mobile services, video conferencing are few of the facilities that the human mind has been able to conceive with the aid of technology.All have played a very important part in making the world a ‘Global Village’. Technology has ensured that one can easily communicate with anyone on land, in air(aeroplanes) or even when the person is under the calm waves of dark deep-sea.

technology is not always an advantage in our daily life. Looking back in time , people in the 1960s also have no techonology , and they survived and live happily and also, tecnology is expensive and some people cannot afford to pay it. so i think that technology is not really advantage.

I disaree with the title 'Technology is more boon than a bane in the society' as social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and Skype are 'spoling' people in my opinion. Many are addicted to such networks especially Teenagers. In every 10 people only 2 use the technology for good uses. If technology was not this advance we would not have social networks/websites such as Facebook, Twitter and others. Which would have resulted in lesser cases,crimes,offences and even deaths.

Side: YES

yes, they may get addicted somehow.. but usually, when parents see that their child is not getting off the computer, they can sense that something would happen.. therefore, from there, parents could bring their child to counselling or just control their use on computer as such that they set a schedule. therefore, i storngly disagree to your point.

No is not true as social network can cause people under depression and sucidal, it also can cause positive impact on people like giving them new hopes of life. (done by wei hao)

True that social networking does spoil the society and you spell disagree wrongly :PAnyway, do you ever think of the advantage?For example, social networking allow:-school to communicate to their student privately or openly-students can communicate to each other through social networking(safwan, 2n1)
Debate: technology is more a boon than a bane to society. Do you agree? (Clenn)
Side: NO

No i disagree of what you had just said. technology does not spoil the society.It is because not all social networking are danderous like youtube and such.Some social networking, like facebook are places that you can find out things like "what did you guys do during school time or what are the homeworks that were given during that day".this is why social networking is not dangerous as you thing.
Debate: technology is more a boon than a bane to society. Do you agree? (Clenn)
Side: YES

I disagree with daarshini's point as firstly, she still have to elaborate on the term'spoiling' as we identify how teenagers are using the social networks based on their exploration.Each teenager have their own way of using website but mostly they use it for good purposes.Secondly, she mend that a person who suicided and another who had depression. well, i would like to say that this causes are from influences as teenagers get influenced by their peers and decide to make friendship with others and get into these kind of problems

I Have To Disagree With That But I Think That Social Networking Sites Is Not All That Bad. There Is Many People Who Emphasis On The Effects Of Such Cyber-Bullying. One Example Is Our School FaceBook's Page:SCSS Network [Official]
