This document discusses the importance of technology. It defines technology as the practical application of scientific knowledge through methods, systems and devices. It then outlines several key areas where technology is important, including education, communication, security, and supplies. Technology fuels educational testing and makes grading and reporting more efficient for teachers. Communication technologies like apps have improved both business and personal connections. Security technologies make homes and businesses feel safer. And technology has increased access to supplies like food and water by enabling more effective delivery. The document concludes that technology is vital to modern life and will continue to be integrated more into society.
2. WHAT IS TECHNOLOGY?
Technology refers to methods,
systems, and devices which are
the result of scientific knowledge
being used for practical purposes.
4. EDUCATION
Technology fuels most of the educational
system testing. Now with computers and iPads in
just about every classroom, technology has
advanced the testing options available to most
school systems. Technology makes it more
efficient for teachers to handle report cards and
grading papers, thus cutting down working hours
that usually go well beyond the school day.
5. COMMUNICATION
Whether in business or personal life, technology
has improved communication. With apps like Voxer,
Skype and other communication apps you can easily
improve communication on a business level. These
apps also do well when trying to stay connected to
family members that live far away.
6. SECURITY
Technology can make any family or business feel
safer. There are many security devices and software
available to secure your financial data, protect your
home when you are away and much more.
Technology is important because it makes you feel
more secure with every area in life for both personal
and business reasons.
7. SUPPLIES
With technology advancing more people are able
to have access to supplies such as fresh water and
food because technology can help deliver those
items to people that otherwise couldn’t get it. With
apps that allow you to order out or the robust
technology driven devices that provide water to
towns, there are more supplies available due to
technology.
8. SPACE
Without technology we would have not have
advanced so far in the space industry. NASA utilizes
technology to find new planets, monitor space and
much more. Technology is important in learning
more about the galaxy that surrounds us so that
perhaps we can uncover the hidden mysteries of our
world.
9. As you can see, technology is a vital part of
life as we know it. Eventually we will all have
to embrace the technological advancements in
society and learn how to function with more
tech driven devices. From local restaurant
kiosks to downtown grocery stores with self-
check-out lanes, technology is here and it is
here to stay.
