9. In education, technology is bane when:
________________________________________________________________________________________
the learner is made to accept as Gospel truth information
they get from the internet
the learner surfs the Internet for pornography/Adult sites
the learner has an uncritical mind on images floating on
televisions and computers that represent modernity and
progress
10. the TV makes the learner a mere spectator not an active
participant in the drama of life (Students creativity and
Imagination is shattered)
the learners gets glued to his computer for computer-assisted
instruction unmindful of the world and so fails to
develop the ability to relate to others (Interpersonal Skills
is shattered)
11. make use of the Internet to do character assassination of
people whom we hardly like (Cyber bullying)
because of the cell phone, We spend most of our time in the
classroom or in our workplace texting
we use, overuse and abuse TV or film viewing as a strategy
to kill time
