I don t like that technology and computers replace the need and use of people. I would rather talk to someone than send them an e-mail. I would rather sit in a class and listen to a lecture from a professor than take an on-line course with all lessons presented on white pages with black font. I would rather walk in a park with my friends than watch a movie or play a video game together. My concern about technology extends into the classroom as well.
Technology is in some ways taking away from the personal instruction given to children.
The more time children spend working on computers is less time they get instruction from their teachers. Students need to be taught how to do things without the aid of technology first and then introduced to the technology as a tool to make the process easier. If students develop an over dependency on technology then they will not have the knowledge and skills to truly problem-solve in the real world. Teachers cannot and should not be replaced by technology. And personal instruction cannot be adequately met through a computer.
