Essay on The Impact of Technology on Education
The Impact of Technology on Education
Technology affects every aspect of our lives. From romance to business, it has shown its presence everywhere. But technology has had a huge impact
on education that cannot be denied, and has done nothing but improve the quality and quantity of education.
Today, schools are being pressured more and more to improve the technology they use and teach in the classrooms. Parents are placing this pressure on
schools so that their students have the skills needed to compete in the real world job market. Students are placing pressure on the schools to improve
technology by having more knowledge of current technology than the school's staff. Teachers in turn are placing emphasis on the schools to...show more

This frees up time for teachers to address more serious issues in the classroom and allows students more time to work on their project, instead of
having to spend large quantities of time going over their project with the teacher. Also, programs such as PowerPoint and other graphic arts programs
allow students to illustrate their literary works and by creating them on the computer, it makes it much simpler for the students to publish their own
work on the internet. When it comes to learning how to improve reading skills, many programs exist, one of the better being Reader Rabbit, which
uses games to disguise drill–and–practice routines to help students improve reading ability. All of these are examples of how technology has positively
affected Language Arts education.
Science education has also been affected however. Computer programs like BioPac, used here on LSSU's campus, help collect data and analyze it.
Experiments that normally would not have been able to be accomplished or ones that would have required great lengths of time can now easily be
completed in a matter of minutes. Also, internet resources can help provide ideas for experiments, with instructions on how to complete them often,
and also will provide forums for students to exchange and discuss results with each other. In response to students feelings of uneasiness about dissecting

Argumentative Essay
Computers and technological devices have been heavily used in millions of elementary classrooms throughout the world. While many people believe
this is a beneficial thing some think it is taking over the traditional ways of learning and damaging their social interaction. All the colors and sounds on
the screen attract children and make them think that what they are learning is fun and enjoyable. Using computers in the classroom is very beneficial,
but it should not be replacing traditional ways of education. As Elizabeth Bohnhorst, author of Floppy Disk Fallacies, stated "...computers are being
used more and more frequently as a substitute for books, blackboards, and in some cases, the teachers themselves (251–252)". Students will soon not
have the need to bring pencils, paper, and even a backpack to class because everybody will be using computers as a means of learning. Moreover,
computers should be used only as a tool to assist learners and make certain tasks accomplishable more efficiently while also keeping traditional ways
of learning.
Bohnhorst wrote Floppy Disk Fallacies in the year 2005, which was roughly thirteen year ago. One statistic found Bohnhorst was from the University of
Minnesota, which stated, "In 1992, the typical high school had one computer for every ten students, while elementary and middle schools averaged
thirteen students per computer ("Computers")". In the year 2017, many school in the city of Cleveland and its suburbs have laptops for every student

Computer Lab or Computers in the Classroom
Everyone lives in a society dependent on technology at work, home, and school, but students are not able to access this technology on a continuous
basis. Computers are significant to education because they make us reconsider how students learn, how they are inspired, and what useful information
is. Classroom with computers have become an important part of the curriculum and need to be used daily. Phasing out computer labs and putting
computers right in the classroom helps with daily use, helps with future preparation, and benefits learning in students and teachers.

According to (n.d.) it reports that a study of middle school students produced twice as much written work on computer than without (General Computer
Use, para. 1). With using word processing on a computer a student is given the chance to develop writing and thinking skills. The North Central
Regional Educational Laboratory (1997) website believes students write longer, revise and edit their work, and concentrate on the thoughts they want to
express (para. 12). Seems that students find it easier to come up with ideas to write and easier to edit their work with a computer rather than pen and
paper. According to (n.d.) students learn their lessons in less time with computer–based instruction. The average reduction in instructional time was
34% in 17 studies of college instruction, and 24% in 15 studies of adult education (appendix, section 11). Also using computers helps with developing
independent learning and just might have leaders emerge that enjoy computers that could help with others. Computers in the classroom also can help
with social skills in students. Yes computer labs can help with social skills too, when there is an older student to help younger ones it is great to see
cooperative learning but what about sharing, and teamwork between those in a classroom. A classroom setting might not have 20 computers but only
five and students have to share these and work together. According to (n.d.) observed 10 activities of computer use was

Integrating Technology in Education
Educational technologies are being utilized in every facet of school education. Increasingly, teachers are asking students to access information from
technological sources. Methods of instruction must change in order to keep up with the ever–changing world and we, as teachers must cease the
technological movement. There are many factors and activities that can help teachers develop an attitude that is intrepid in the use of technology,
encourages them to take risks, and inspires them to involve technology in the classroom environment. In the technological society of today, is it

The technology plan should also address the technology proficiencies that teachers will be expected to demonstrate. Once everything is setup a
performance report should be printed showing the impacts of student achievement and teacher efficiency. Barnett (2001) explained that technology
effectiveness divides into two areas: 1) learning with computers, using computers as tutors 2) learning from computers, which is when the student uses
the computer as a tool in the learning process for communication, collaboration, research, or publishing. However, for any of this to work a well
knowledge teacher must be present. Therefore, a technology plan must commit to professional development and continue to support and find ways to
integrate technology into the curriculum. What is the purpose of implementing technology? Research indicates that computer technology increases
student's high order thinking skills. Students are able to conceptualize, analyze and solve more complex problems. Technology provides ways for
teachers and school to utilize time more efficiently (Burdette 2001). Technology can be used to present information in a new, more appropriate way.
Educational technology tools most commonly used are PowerPoint, Word and Excel. Technology by itself does not guarantee learning. The

Kids with special needs can use alternative input and output devices (assistive technologies) to interact with computers and do things that they
normally could not accomplish independently. They benefit especially from having access to an on–demand, patient tutor that allows them to work at
their own pace.
Computers improve both teaching and student achievement. Across the world children have entered a passionate and enduring love affair with the
computer. Thus, when used for educational programs, what attracts the children most is not the beauty of or interests in the content being learned, but
these are video effects of the computer. It is a great need that children and young people have to learn computers now otherwise they will fall behind in
their future search for professional jobs and career.
Computers these days have become so easy to use and learn. The online tutorials are becoming so powerful that any one will be able to learn how to
use computers very fast at any age. The use of computers will be part of on–the–job training, provided by the enterprises themselves. It is a fact that
many adults are afraid of computers, but the person will not be the case with children who were born after the introduction of personal computers.

My Goals in Studying Computer Science
My ambition to study further and to do research in the field of computer science has developed out of my experiences in my academic life, work
practices and also from my family environment, which has always encouraged me to learn and take my decisions by myself. My interest at school
level lies more in subject of maths, science and computer sciences. I had created my first program in LOGO progdramming language in my 5th grade.
That was the time when I first encountered computer programming and then in my subsequent years of schooling I have learned many things of
computer science. At that time I was not fully aware about the field of computer science. But after coming in my undergraduate studies I have
gained an insight of computer science in my course work and became more interested in the field of computer science. Later I have decided to
further enhance my knowledge and do research by pursuing my masters in field of computer science. My long term goal is to pursue research in
field of computer science and create innovative solutions and applications related to the field which is best to society. My interest in maths is very
deep from my school days and also I scored consistently 95% and above in the same during my schooling. I was among top 1% students out of 90000

In general, computer is a machine that manipulates data according to a list of instructions. Computers can be found in various forms such as personal
computers, calculators and mobile phones. They are utilised in places like houses, offices, and schools. The invention of computer symbolises the
advancement of technology in mankind. Furthermore, computer has made our life easier. We would not have achieved what we have today if computer
was not invented. It is difficult to identify which was the first computer invented. This is because the term computer has been subject to varying
interpretations over time. The meaning of computer changes as time passes by, thus making it difficult to interpret the accurate meaning. Originally,

The students are able to pay more attention to the lessons and exercises given through computer as it is animated. Besides that, we can solve a
mathematic question using a computer or calculator. We can get the answer fast and accurately instead of wasting time to redo the question a few
times to get an accurate answer. Computer is also a source of entertainment. We can use computer to entertain us besides doing work or study. We
can choose to play fun computer games, listen to our favourite songs or even watch exciting movies. These will keep us entertained during our free
time. In this way, computer can help us to release stress. We can always use the computer for play when we are stressed up and then continue
work. This can be said as killing two birds with one stone! Although computer has a lot of benefits, computer also has drawbacks as nothing is
perfect in this world. As computer is a part of our life, we tend to store private information in computer. Some inconsiderate people will try to hack in
our computer to get the data files or send in viruses to destroy our data files. Those who got the data files will either broadcast it in the internet or use
it to threaten the owner. Fortunately, this problem can be curbed using a secured firewall program and a good antivirus program. As computer is used

Today, technology is everywhere and is deeply embedded into our day to day lives at work, school, and home. Over the past four weeks, 100% of
my daily tasks as an intern at liveWELL have been computer based. I am learning more and more things about different programs to design my

healthier snack and lunch options through smoothies. I was given documents about healthy eating in the workplace, an interview with the Wellness

In today's world it is nearly impossible to keep up without technology. Computers especially, are needed in most American's everyday lives. So why
would early childhood education be any different? From the beginning stages, there has always been a debate of whether computers have a positive or
negative impact on children, young children especially. As computers have intergraded themselves into many children's lives and theireducation, the
debate is even more prominent. Supporters of computer use in early childhood education believe that with proper monitoring and the right software,
computers can be only beneficial to children. If used correctly, computers can only benefit children's early childhood education, which is why it is
important that we educate teachers and families on the proper methods to do so. As computers have developed over time, society has had to develop
right along side it. Children, being part of society, have learned and become fascinated with technology itself over the years. Kaveri Subrahmanyam et
al assess the impact of computers on children. They believe an abundance of screen time for children will negatively affect their perception of reality,
social development, physical development, and cognitive development over time. They explain one of the many negative points they have concerning

When an essay is completed in a Moo, it is out there for the world to see. In other words, anyone and everyone in the world who has access to the
Internet can view it. This leaves an essay open for criticism, which can be used constructively to help the student develop his or her work. It also

work to be accomplished. Teachers can view an essay over the Internet, then email the student back his or her grade at any time they desire. Essays
written on the Internet also free the teacher from carrying around stacks of papers.
Although Moos have many advantages, there are also certain drawbacks to creating an essay in this fashion. When writing an essay in the Moo, the

As a female computer science student and teaching assistant, I am aware that my status as a minority in my chosen field of study influences the
interactions I have and the decisions I make each day. I also know that in this, I am not alone. According to C. Wright Mills (1959), the sociological
imagination "enables its possessor to understand the larger historical scene in terms of ... their daily experience ... [and] their social positions." In other
words, to think sociologically, one must understand the inherent link between history and their own personal biography. Canadian women have become
"increasingly well–educated" and "represent a larger share of the labour market today than they have ever represented previously," however, even with
these changes, Canadian women are still significantly less likely to pursue university degrees in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and
mathematics) fields than their male peers (Ferguson, 2016). I know that my experience as a computer science student is related to my personal
characteristics in some ways, however studies show that the experiences of women in computer science are linked to greater social patterns like gender
socialization, gender inequality, and norms surrounding gender and occupation. As Mills (1959) outlines, the relationship between personal troubles
and public issues is closely interdependent because we must understand the nature of one to understand the other and vice versa. Mills defines personal

the rapid and continuing introduction of new technology into education, has outpaced the ability of teachers and developers to evaluate it properly, "
says Levy, (1997:1). And he continues, that as soon as teachers have become acquainted with one kind of software and hardware and have developed
some ability to use it for educational purposes, "better" machines appear to displace it.

"In our schools, every classroom in America must be connected to the information superhighway with computers and good software and well–trained
teachers" (Clinton, B: 1996, in Bush et al: 1997)
Teacher training has been supported by different sources, as mentioned by Cwiklik (1997). Federal funds have been used in programs such as the
Technology Innovation Challenge Grant Program, which provides funds for schools developing projects that encourage the good use of technology in
education. And the Technology Literacy Challenge Fund set up last year for state education agencies to distribute to school–technology initiatives.
Schools, districts or teachers' certified agencies also sustain programs to develop teacher training, such as the Community School District One in New
York, the New York Public Schools with the "Project Smart", or the Olympia, WA, School district which devised the original "Generation Why." All
mentioned by Cwiklik in Wall Street Journal (1997).

Many educational institutions are attempting to meet the challenge of educating people about basic computing skills (Parry). For example, providing
opportunities for students to take classes in high school allows students to become more familiar with the basics of computers earlier. Some classes
include word processing, browsing the internet, and using the computers interface. Colleges teach more advanced classes on computers. The colleges
have realized the need for students to know how to use a computer. For example, some colleges make taking at least one computer class a requirement
to graduate. These requirements help people be accountable for having some knowledge with computers no matter what their career direction is. In
case of a job change or different choice of occupation, an individual would still have a working knowledge of computers.
Just as people change careers, the way computers look and run also changes. The people who use the computers need to make sure and pay attention
to when changes are set in place. There are many books that are available that have a wide variety of topics on computers. Some community colleges
offer short classes that help develop skills with computers. An example of change is the operating system Windows created by Microsoft. There are

Computers facilitate audio–visual representation of information, thus making the process of learning interactive and interesting. Computer–aided
teaching adds a fun element to education. Teachers hardly use chalk and board today. They bring presentations on a flash drive, plug it in to a computer
in the classroom, and the teaching begins. There's color, there's sound, there's movement – the same old information comes forth in a different way and
learning becomes fun. The otherwise not–so–interesting lessons become interesting due to audio–visual effects. Due to the visual aid, difficult subjects
can be explained in better ways. Things become easier to follow, thanks to the use of computers in education.
Computer software help better presentation of information.
Internet can play an important role in education. As it is an enormous information base, it can be harnessed for retrieval of information on a variety of
subjects. The Internet can be used to refer to information on different subjects. Both teachers and students benefit from the Internet. Teachers can refer

Children will feel lonely because they spent most of their time on computers instead of spending their time with their family."This increases their daily
stress because if they are not talking with their parents it means they are not sharing their problem, which is why they are facing trouble."( Wisdia

To conclude, computer games can affect on children in negative way, and change their behavior. Second, Internet affects on children in two negative
ways. One obvious negative effect is login on sites that can damage children's life. "Sites encourage children to use the Internet for the production,
manufacture, and distribution pornography" (ojp, "Internet" , May 2001). For example, login on sites that sell alcohol and drugs. Also these sites

Essay On The Impact Of Technology On Education

  • 1. Essay on The Impact of Technology on Education The Impact of Technology on Education Technology affects every aspect of our lives. From romance to business, it has shown its presence everywhere. But technology has had a huge impact on education that cannot be denied, and has done nothing but improve the quality and quantity of education. Today, schools are being pressured more and more to improve the technology they use and teach in the classrooms. Parents are placing this pressure on schools so that their students have the skills needed to compete in the real world job market. Students are placing pressure on the schools to improve technology by having more knowledge of current technology than the school's staff. Teachers in turn are placing emphasis on the schools to...show more content... This frees up time for teachers to address more serious issues in the classroom and allows students more time to work on their project, instead of having to spend large quantities of time going over their project with the teacher. Also, programs such as PowerPoint and other graphic arts programs allow students to illustrate their literary works and by creating them on the computer, it makes it much simpler for the students to publish their own work on the internet. When it comes to learning how to improve reading skills, many programs exist, one of the better being Reader Rabbit, which uses games to disguise drill–and–practice routines to help students improve reading ability. All of these are examples of how technology has positively affected Language Arts education. Science education has also been affected however. Computer programs like BioPac, used here on LSSU's campus, help collect data and analyze it. Experiments that normally would not have been able to be accomplished or ones that would have required great lengths of time can now easily be completed in a matter of minutes. Also, internet resources can help provide ideas for experiments, with instructions on how to complete them often, and also will provide forums for students to exchange and discuss results with each other. In response to students feelings of uneasiness about dissecting real animals andinhumane treatment of test subjects, Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 2. Argumentative Essay Computers and technological devices have been heavily used in millions of elementary classrooms throughout the world. While many people believe this is a beneficial thing some think it is taking over the traditional ways of learning and damaging their social interaction. All the colors and sounds on the screen attract children and make them think that what they are learning is fun and enjoyable. Using computers in the classroom is very beneficial, but it should not be replacing traditional ways of education. As Elizabeth Bohnhorst, author of Floppy Disk Fallacies, stated "...computers are being used more and more frequently as a substitute for books, blackboards, and in some cases, the teachers themselves (251–252)". Students will soon not have the need to bring pencils, paper, and even a backpack to class because everybody will be using computers as a means of learning. Moreover, computers should be used only as a tool to assist learners and make certain tasks accomplishable more efficiently while also keeping traditional ways of learning. Bohnhorst wrote Floppy Disk Fallacies in the year 2005, which was roughly thirteen year ago. One statistic found Bohnhorst was from the University of Minnesota, which stated, "In 1992, the typical high school had one computer for every ten students, while elementary and middle schools averaged thirteen students per computer ("Computers")". In the year 2017, many school in the city of Cleveland and its suburbs have laptops for every student Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. Computer Lab or Computers in the Classroom Computer Lab or Computers in the Classroom Everyone lives in a society dependent on technology at work, home, and school, but students are not able to access this technology on a continuous basis. Computers are significant to education because they make us reconsider how students learn, how they are inspired, and what useful information is. Classroom with computers have become an important part of the curriculum and need to be used daily. Phasing out computer labs and putting computers right in the classroom helps with daily use, helps with future preparation, and benefits learning in students and teachers. Computer Labs Computer labs are found in many schools, a room with around 20 computers used by each person in the school. Daily...show more content... According to (n.d.) it reports that a study of middle school students produced twice as much written work on computer than without (General Computer Use, para. 1). With using word processing on a computer a student is given the chance to develop writing and thinking skills. The North Central Regional Educational Laboratory (1997) website believes students write longer, revise and edit their work, and concentrate on the thoughts they want to express (para. 12). Seems that students find it easier to come up with ideas to write and easier to edit their work with a computer rather than pen and paper. According to (n.d.) students learn their lessons in less time with computer–based instruction. The average reduction in instructional time was 34% in 17 studies of college instruction, and 24% in 15 studies of adult education (appendix, section 11). Also using computers helps with developing independent learning and just might have leaders emerge that enjoy computers that could help with others. Computers in the classroom also can help with social skills in students. Yes computer labs can help with social skills too, when there is an older student to help younger ones it is great to see cooperative learning but what about sharing, and teamwork between those in a classroom. A classroom setting might not have 20 computers but only five and students have to share these and work together. According to (n.d.) observed 10 activities of computer use was Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 4. Integrating Technology in Education Essay Integrating Technology in Education Educational technologies are being utilized in every facet of school education. Increasingly, teachers are asking students to access information from technological sources. Methods of instruction must change in order to keep up with the ever–changing world and we, as teachers must cease the technological movement. There are many factors and activities that can help teachers develop an attitude that is intrepid in the use of technology, encourages them to take risks, and inspires them to involve technology in the classroom environment. In the technological society of today, is it possible that the integration of computers will change the traditional methods of the classroom? Will the introduction...show more content... The technology plan should also address the technology proficiencies that teachers will be expected to demonstrate. Once everything is setup a performance report should be printed showing the impacts of student achievement and teacher efficiency. Barnett (2001) explained that technology effectiveness divides into two areas: 1) learning with computers, using computers as tutors 2) learning from computers, which is when the student uses the computer as a tool in the learning process for communication, collaboration, research, or publishing. However, for any of this to work a well knowledge teacher must be present. Therefore, a technology plan must commit to professional development and continue to support and find ways to integrate technology into the curriculum. What is the purpose of implementing technology? Research indicates that computer technology increases student's high order thinking skills. Students are able to conceptualize, analyze and solve more complex problems. Technology provides ways for teachers and school to utilize time more efficiently (Burdette 2001). Technology can be used to present information in a new, more appropriate way. Educational technology tools most commonly used are PowerPoint, Word and Excel. Technology by itself does not guarantee learning. The combination of the teacher, student and Get more content on HelpWriting.net

Computers have changed the world, as a lot of things can now be done through computers. Computers are everywhere at school, at work, and at home. Many daily activities either involve the use of or depend on information from a computer. Over the past decade, the number of schools with computer and the Internet access has grown exponentially, and the number of children going online from school has followed suit. The first computer Atanasoff Berry Computer (ABC) was developed in 1942. Historians divide the history of the modern computer into generations, beginning with the...show more content... Kids with special needs can use alternative input and output devices (assistive technologies) to interact with computers and do things that they normally could not accomplish independently. They benefit especially from having access to an on–demand, patient tutor that allows them to work at their own pace. Computers improve both teaching and student achievement. Across the world children have entered a passionate and enduring love affair with the computer. Thus, when used for educational programs, what attracts the children most is not the beauty of or interests in the content being learned, but these are video effects of the computer. It is a great need that children and young people have to learn computers now otherwise they will fall behind in their future search for professional jobs and career. Computers these days have become so easy to use and learn. The online tutorials are becoming so powerful that any one will be able to learn how to use computers very fast at any age. The use of computers will be part of on–the–job training, provided by the enterprises themselves. It is a fact that many adults are afraid of computers, but the person will not be the case with children who were born after the introduction of personal computers. As of today, more than 70 percent of colleges offer some sorts of distance learning classes. Distance learning makes students independent. Not only distance learning, computer based teaching itself is also very Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 6. My Goals in Studying Computer Science My ambition to study further and to do research in the field of computer science has developed out of my experiences in my academic life, work practices and also from my family environment, which has always encouraged me to learn and take my decisions by myself. My interest at school level lies more in subject of maths, science and computer sciences. I had created my first program in LOGO progdramming language in my 5th grade. That was the time when I first encountered computer programming and then in my subsequent years of schooling I have learned many things of computer science. At that time I was not fully aware about the field of computer science. But after coming in my undergraduate studies I have gained an insight of computer science in my course work and became more interested in the field of computer science. Later I have decided to further enhance my knowledge and do research by pursuing my masters in field of computer science. My long term goal is to pursue research in field of computer science and create innovative solutions and applications related to the field which is best to society. My interest in maths is very deep from my school days and also I scored consistently 95% and above in the same during my schooling. I was among top 1% students out of 90000 students in my 12th grade. Because of that I can manage to take admission in Gujarat's one of the best colleges i.e. L D College of Engg, Ahmedabad and completed my graduation in field of information Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 7. Essay on The Use of the Computer In general, computer is a machine that manipulates data according to a list of instructions. Computers can be found in various forms such as personal computers, calculators and mobile phones. They are utilised in places like houses, offices, and schools. The invention of computer symbolises the advancement of technology in mankind. Furthermore, computer has made our life easier. We would not have achieved what we have today if computer was not invented. It is difficult to identify which was the first computer invented. This is because the term computer has been subject to varying interpretations over time. The meaning of computer changes as time passes by, thus making it difficult to interpret the accurate meaning. Originally, computer...show more content... The students are able to pay more attention to the lessons and exercises given through computer as it is animated. Besides that, we can solve a mathematic question using a computer or calculator. We can get the answer fast and accurately instead of wasting time to redo the question a few times to get an accurate answer. Computer is also a source of entertainment. We can use computer to entertain us besides doing work or study. We can choose to play fun computer games, listen to our favourite songs or even watch exciting movies. These will keep us entertained during our free time. In this way, computer can help us to release stress. We can always use the computer for play when we are stressed up and then continue work. This can be said as killing two birds with one stone! Although computer has a lot of benefits, computer also has drawbacks as nothing is perfect in this world. As computer is a part of our life, we tend to store private information in computer. Some inconsiderate people will try to hack in our computer to get the data files or send in viruses to destroy our data files. Those who got the data files will either broadcast it in the internet or use it to threaten the owner. Fortunately, this problem can be curbed using a secured firewall program and a good antivirus program.

  • 8. Reflection On Computer Skill Development Today, technology is everywhere and is deeply embedded into our day to day lives at work, school, and home. Over the past four weeks, 100% of my daily tasks as an intern at liveWELL have been computer based. I am learning more and more things about different programs to design my incentive program, writing articles, and updating flyers of health information all on behalf of liveWELL. As I reflect on my computer skill development, I will discuss the different tasks I have been faced with and the skills I have gained from them, as well as how each have impacted my academic, professional, and personal development. Each day brings a new experience in working with computer programs. My first task was to write an article for Iowa Now about promoting nutrition in the workplace. The article featured a story about the Hardin Library utilizing a Wellness Grant from liveWELL to purchase a NutriBullet blender for the break room and supply each staff member with Iowa Hawkeye cups to promote healthier snack and lunch options through smoothies. I was given documents about healthy eating in the workplace, an interview with the Wellness Ambassador of the Hardin Library, and a report on the effectiveness of the intervention. I was then free to write a short article with the information that I was given and incorporate pictures of the staff using the blender, and creating a visually appealing article page with separate text boxes.

  • 9. In today's world it is nearly impossible to keep up without technology. Computers especially, are needed in most American's everyday lives. So why would early childhood education be any different? From the beginning stages, there has always been a debate of whether computers have a positive or negative impact on children, young children especially. As computers have intergraded themselves into many children's lives and theireducation, the debate is even more prominent. Supporters of computer use in early childhood education believe that with proper monitoring and the right software, computers can be only beneficial to children. If used correctly, computers can only benefit children's early childhood education, which is why it is important that we educate teachers and families on the proper methods to do so. As computers have developed over time, society has had to develop right along side it. Children, being part of society, have learned and become fascinated with technology itself over the years. Kaveri Subrahmanyam et al assess the impact of computers on children. They believe an abundance of screen time for children will negatively affect their perception of reality, social development, physical development, and cognitive development over time. They explain one of the many negative points they have concerning children's computer tendencies: The evidence on physical effects links to sedentary nature of computer use to an increased risk of obesity.

Receiving help is as easy as communicating with the other people online. This saves the hassle of arranging a meeting with a teacher or classmates. This is beneficial because an instant response can be obtained in a matter of seconds. Also, this is the most appropriate place for a correct response to any Moo related questions. When an essay is completed in a Moo, it is out there for the world to see. In other words, anyone and everyone in the world who has access to the Internet can view it. This leaves an essay open for criticism, which can be used constructively to help the student develop his or her work. It also beneficial for the teachers. It allows the teacher to view the student's work with the click of a mouse. No longer does class have to be in session for work to be accomplished. Teachers can view an essay over the Internet, then email the student back his or her grade at any time they desire. Essays written on the Internet also free the teacher from carrying around stacks of papers. Although Moos have many advantages, there are also certain drawbacks to creating an essay in this fashion. When writing an essay in the Moo, the Moo editor may be needed. The editor contains certain commands that are needed to get around throughout the rooms, and it may be hard to memorize them all. This can be a stressful task to learn the commands, but once they are familiar, travel throughout the Moo rooms is much easier. Computers in the

As a female computer science student and teaching assistant, I am aware that my status as a minority in my chosen field of study influences the interactions I have and the decisions I make each day. I also know that in this, I am not alone. According to C. Wright Mills (1959), the sociological imagination "enables its possessor to understand the larger historical scene in terms of ... their daily experience ... [and] their social positions."
