Question

5 argumentów przeciw twierdzeniu: "Technology makes young people lazy and stupid". Prosiłabym po angielsku, ale jeśli ktoś nie może albo nie umie może też być po polsku ;)

Answer 1

1. Thanks to technology, we can learn more. The Internet breaks all the boundaries that could ever be in our way.
2. Technology and its improvement allowed us to maintain contact in more ways than just phone calls or meetings. Now we can share pictures without printing them, share our experience and memories that way.
3. Internet also makes it possible for us to break language, time and space barriers in order to meet new people. Now we can be best friends with a person from New Zealand or California without having to travel across the world. It's a great chance for us to improve in that way - not only our speaking skills. By talking to people that lives far away, in a different country, we learn about their culture, education system, politics, history etc.
4. Somebody who is naturally stupid won't be smarter without technology. In fact, I would rather be more concerned about someone like that. Some people need to relax by doing something pointless, yet entertaining. Their choices of the browsed pages may seem stupid, but it is actually their way of resting. Sometimes adults watch TV like brainless zombies, and nobody calls them stupid, right?
5. Technology isn't just the Internet, television and cell phones. It's also radio, cars, bikes and so on. The adults aren't called lazy when preferring to rather drive their own car than to use the public transport. Technology is meant to make our lives easier so we can focus on ourselves and our personal improvement. So why is that perceived as a bad thing? Personally, I feel like the older generations see that as unfair that we have it easier than they. Therefore, we're "stupider" and "lazier" than they since we don't need to try half as hard.
