The Impact of Technological Advancement

There is no denying that technology is a must today. It created numerous advancements that entirely changed the way people live. Whatever you are working or resting, you’re always using it everywhere and at all times as it is solving all kinds of problems and improving education, business, health care, transportation, communication and so on.

Education

Incorporating technology in education had a very important role in improving teaching ways.

For example, the Internet is a massive resource for information used by both teachers and students for research, interactive lessons, educational games and many more. Examples of educational sites and apps are Khan Academy, which provides you with any lesson you want through videos and exercises, and Duolingo, in which you can learn new languages easily.

Active boards and projectors have also allowed the teachers to present their lessons interactively.

Business

Today, businesses can save money by using technology to perform numerous tasks. As in, businesses can deliver high quality while using less human resources.

We can see that happening in a lot of factories, for example in car manufacturing where robots are used in the creation and assembling of car parts.

Online purchasing have also helped businesses save money on renting a store and instead creating a shopping space online.

Health Care

Many improvements in health care, hospitalization, and medicine were caused by technology. Advanced nursing tools not only allowed the doctors to identify diseases early through screenings and tests but also helped them in curing and saving lives.

 Also, hundreds of vaccines and medicines were created to solve massive spreading diseases like measles, smallpox, and influenza. Besides those advancements, numerous apps can be found that can monitor your weight, fitness, heart rate and any health properties.

Let’s not forget also that the Internet provides tons of medical information for anyone at any time.

All in all, technology in health care helped in extending life spans and improved the quality of life for people worldwide.

Transportation

The travel industry has also benefitted from technology by saving both time and money. Nowadays people worldwide have a vast selection of transportation ways that didn’t exist a while ago.

So instead of hopping on a horse-driven carriage like the old times, you can now travel by car, plane, train, bus or whatever. By choosing the new modes of transportation, you saved time and money.

Communication

Technology has achieved the best advancements in the communication area. It gave us the chance to connect, communicate and interact with anyone anywhere in the world whether it was through our phones, computers, or the TV.

Our grandparents, even our parents, couldn’t imagine what global communication would look like before technology came through and provided us with it.

Think of it, you are connecting to millions of people every single day through your boring daily activities when you: open any form of social media apps, search through google, watch movies and tv series…

 

There are so many ways technology has improved our way of living and took it to a whole new level. It has made life less time consuming, more affordable, and more practical.
