HW 18 - Big Paper 1 Rough Draft

Technology is slowly damaging our society and make as more useless and dumb. As more and more new electronics come out the more we turn more useless. Many digital things now a day do many things for you. Take Microsoft word for example, you really don’t have to worry about spelling things wrong anymore because Microsoft word will fix it or show you that its wrong and you can just right click on your mouse and fix it. Which just adds on to as not really having to do much when we have to fix a word.


Technology has come a long way since back than. We now have different electronic devices for our daily needs. If we need to write a paper we can just turn our computer go on Microsoft word and write the paper and we would not have to worry about misspelling a word because Microsoft word would just fix it for you or show that you made a mistake. When people didn’t have any computers they would have to hand write there papers and if they think they spelled the word wrong they have to ask someone or look up in the dictionary if they spelled it wrong. The good thing about back than was not people were getting smarter because they could be able to use the dictionary better and also there penmanship would improve because they would be writing there paper than typing it. our society is always typing something that for some people they don’t really take the time to hand write anything which makes our penmanship not so great because we rarely have to hand write anything. another thing thats bad about technology is that it can be very unhealthy because people sometimes tend to spend so much time on electronic devices, like what people would do would be waste so much time using the computer or playing video games that they lose track of time and waste a lot of time on it. the bad about this is that you are just siting there not doing anything and not be active also your just looking at a screen which slowly are missing up your eyes. which just adds on to society not doing anything and sort of just go dumber because your not really doing anything.


One of the main goals that the companies of these electronic devices tend to stick to is to make your life much easier and to make whatever you are doing much easier. but sometimes what they do is they make things much to easy that it starts to make as lazy because it does it for as. like if you had homework and your homework was to find out something that happen in history people who didn't have electronic devices would have to look through textbooks and read a few books that talks about the history your looking for. the benefits from that would be that you would get better with using a textbook and looking for things. now a days if we had the same homework would just google whatever we are looking for and just print out what we found out and that would be it. which just makes as lazy because we didn't really have to read through a lot of text just to find out the info we are looking for. electronic devices do so much now a days that most stuff can be done for you some things even think for you. when you use the internet everything that you do is saved on the history so lets say the next day you want to go back to the same website but you dont remember the name of the website you were on, you can just go back to your history and just look back at whatever you were doing yesterday. leaving you to remember less and not having to do much because the internet is pretty much doing it for you along the way.
