Technology and Video Games – Does The Good Outweigh The Bad?
Video Games may actually improve cognitive ability by up to 20% over non-gamers says
a recent study by The University of Southern California. Despite this evidence, Ed Bell believes,
although admitting that technology has improved some aspects of society, that we do not know
how to distinguish the good uses of technology from the bad. Ed Bell’s assertion that everything
was better back in the “good ole days” is misleading. Although technology is sometimes used
indiscriminately, as Ed Bell believes in Technology, Movement, and Sound; the benefit that
technology has had on our society, I believe, outweighs the cons – although there are cons.
Teachers in America are under constant pressure to improve test scores, and raise
achievement, yet in a society tethered to technology, they are losing the battle to keep kids
engaged. Ed Bell’s discourse about a leaf blower and noise pollution left much to be desired, yet
his appreciation of the “good ole’ days,” may be agreed upon by many teachers. Back in the
“good ole days,” teachers had fewer distractions from their instruction other than the occasional
note-passing or whispering during the lesson. In today’s society, teachers have to contend with
the constant struggle to keep kids engaged in more than the latest app or text from their friend or
parent. The problem has become almost epidemic, leading to kids learning less in addition to
impeding the progress of class. This sometimes makes it necessary to reteach what the students
fail to absorb because they had their head in their phone during the lesson. Unfortunately, this is
not the only negative effect technology has had on our society.
Student 2
Although Ed Bell’s diatribe seems to wage war on technology, it is the message of
inactivity that I think is the greater take-away from the article. For years, with the increasing
presence of modern conveniences in our daily lives, society’s activity level has steadily
decreased. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends that American
adults should get the equivalent of two and a half hours of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity
each week. Children should get about an hour a day. With the popularity of games, and the
advancement of time-saving technology, there is less of this activity than there used to be – but
that is not all. With the advancement of computers and automation in the workplace, the
American employee is not working as hard either – well, not laboriously, anyway. In 1950,
thirty percent of Americans worked in high-activity occupations; by 2000, that proportion had
dropped to only twenty-two percent, according to a Harvard School of Public Health article. Ed
Bell’s article is seemingly mostly negative, but there are some positive benefits to technology as
well. .

3. Professionals have taken up playing the game
as their full time work.
They may not be attached to any other
specific job except as ambassadors etc
They earn their reward in cash and even the
fame they get is encashed by advertisements
Amateurs play for their country or love of
sport. More than money social recognition
and fame are their objectives

4. Are they different ? Yes.
Profession is an occupation requiring special
education
Occupation is the principal activity in your
life that you do to earn money
Professionals are are dedicated to a
profession e.g. doctors, engineers,
architects etc
How they are different from nonprofessionals

area specified by the registration agency.
This is because they have been trained to
practice their profession and have
What is essential is a registration accepting
the ‘code of conduct’ as decided by the
council of registration or society.
1/13/2013 MES College of Engg -National Science Day 2011 5
6. Doctors have to get a registration certificate
from Indian Medical Council (IMC)
Lawyers have to register at the time of
enrolment as a lawyer.
Architects take the registration of Council of
Architects (COA)
Chartered engineers exist though there is no
single body for registration of engineers or
teachers(?)
1/13/2013 MES College of Engg -National Science Day 2011 6
7. After acquiring necessary qualifications from an
approved Institution , you fill up some forms and
pay a registration fee.
In return, you get a registration number and
certificate of registration.
More than this, it is an agreement between the
council and the member to act according to a
‘code of conduct’ acceptable to the society.
If you violate the conditions of registration, you
will not be allowed to practice the profession

14. Try to reach higher levels of competence in
our efforts
Perfection is the motto
Try to become a scholar in things that you

16. From a mentor:
“Lead, Follow or Get out of the way”
Leaders are not born, they become leaders by
constant efforts
Of course, it is easier to follow than lead
But try to enjoy being a leader rather than be
a follower
At least, don’t be, “neither a leader nor a
follower”
If so, be a nuisance to society

welfare of others
acting with less concern for yourself than
for the success of the joint activity
Imagine a world where people give of
themselves simply because they want to.
Not out of a sense of debt.
not because they want something in
return.
"No ulterior motives. No guilt feelings.
Just a desire to give for the sake of giving
1/13/2013 MES College of Engg -National Science Day 2011 17
18. Now instead of imagining this kind of
world, do your part in making it
happen.
Volunteer your time to improve your
community. Give back to the world that
gives so much to you. And if it happens to
make you feel good, that's all right.
“Feeling good is the one ulterior motive
that's acceptable.“ - Bill Daniels)

required for improvement of system
performance.
