"A Reflection on the Native and Immigrants of Technology"

A Reflection on the
“Native and the Immigrants of Technology”

Based on the documented story, there are advantages and disadvantages on the pervasiveness of technology not only for students but for all walks of life.  Especially those people who are in to technology. According to Ms. Rochelle Prado; during the interview, she said that students now a day are very dependent to technology, they actually forgot the importance of hard work and perseverance in looking for answers. With the technology that we have right now, the information that we need is just a click away. Actually she said that teachers must teach the students on how to look for answers and not just simply look for answers the traditional way.
It was true that based on the studies in long term memory process, the information taken through hard work and pain is more likely to stay in the long term memory.  Because its teach students the value of hard work, patience and perseverance. But nevertheless, teachers should not deprive their students privileged to enjoy what the 20th century has to offer.
Honestly speaking, why do you need to go to national library for your research? It’s a waste of time and effort. Besides, you’ll be able to get the same answers for your query from the wide array of information available to suit your needs. I do believe that great power comes with great responsibility as the other always says, and it’s true.  This is the reality of life we have to go with the flow. This is the aim of the developers and inventors to make life easy.
Apparently, what is important is that we know how to save this information and knowledge not in our eight gig flash drive not in the memory of our hard disk computer, but in our God’s given memory which is our brain. It is a matter of being responsible in every thing that we do, it doesn’t matter if use the traditional way or the other way around, but as long as we do it for good I think that is far beyond our teachers discretion.
