BOON

Technology is a blessing for a man. With technology, there’s a lot that we can do which we could not do then.

Technology contribute much to the improvement of teaching-learning process and to the humanization of life.

With cellphones, webcams, you will be closer to someone miles and miles away.

Your teaching and learning can be more novel, stimulating , exciting and engaging with the use of multimedia in he classroom.

Many human lives saved because of speedy notifications via cellphones.

With television, you can watch events as they happen all over the globe.

TECHNOLOGY IS BANE

The learners is made to accept as Gospel truth information they get from the Internet.

The learner surfs the Internet for pornography.

The learner has an uncritical mind on images floating on television and computers that represent modernity and progress.

The television makes the learner a mere spectator not an active participant in the drama of life.

The learner gets glued to his computer for computer-assisted instruction, unmindful of the world and so fails to develop the ability to relate to others.

We make use of the Internet to do character assassination of people whom we hardly like.

Because of our cellphones, we spend most of our time texting in the classroom or in our workplace.

We overuse and abuse TV or film viewing as a strategy to kill time.

Technology contribute much to the improvement of the teaching-learning process and to humanization of life. It is indeed a blessing. But when not used properly, it becomes a detriment to instruction and human progress and development.
