Modern digital media helps people worldwide!!

As technology is advancing nowadays, digital media has proved to be a great benefit universally. It has not only helped in terms of quick communication but also in education. This has been proven in schools and in countries like Korea. Thus, I believe the digital media helps people in a lot of ways and they benefit others universally.

 

In Korea, communication has been pushed beyond its limits due to the modern digital media. Thanks to the digital media like internet online and offline meetings can be made such that people can make friends with people all around the world. It allows the interaction with like-minded people and group meetings also become easier. The use of digital media in Korea also allows groups to post notices or notes in their own personal website for the group members to see if there are many members inside the group. An example for this is the Music Band Association which has 2650 members such that they're divided into groups and they would discuss their songs through a personal website (http://nwww.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20130308000749). Thus, the use of modern digital media has helped Korea in more ways than one as it improves relationships with people as well as helps them in doing their jobs.

 

The use of digital media also assists students from primary schools to universities as well. So, students have been trained to use them since primary schools so that they can adapt quickly to the never ending development of the technologies. Now, students are always using their digital technologies such as Blackberry in their schools or campus. It's actually very useful for the spreading of information due to its communication advantages. Students can also submit their own works through online platforms like turnitin.com rather than handing it. Professors and teachers in schools can use this to further improve their teaching methods. Thus, further upgrading of technologies may not be as bad as students now know that they need those digital media to get a higher education experience. The good things they can experience includes how useful it is in gathering information or how they can make new friends online. The bad things includes how the people they meet may influence them badly, causing the students to commit illegal acts like drugs and the information they find may be false because many people may post different kinds of varieties on the information they want to find.

 

In terms of both evidences, the use of digital medias has truly made the human race performed some impossible things such as communication from very far places, education through online videos and even submitting works online. People can also communicate with one another visually thorough the use of applications such as facebook, twitter, instagram, etc. Various lessons or teachings can also be easily recorded so that students who are absent need not to worry missing them as they can view the lessons done on the day they are absent online. Projects done through these media have also made students use their brains more than required such that a higher quality result can be produced due to how interesting the projects can possibly be due to the available technologies. Students living far away from home can also communicate with their family daily through the use of digital media. And so, it's highly recommended by me that people all over the world become highly conscious of the use of the digital media or as they are very useful in making life more interesting. People also need not worry about how it can be used badly because laws can be created to restrict such things from happening and schools can teach students to properly use them to avoid any conflict in the future.

 

In conclusion, the use of digital media has further benefited this world in more ways than one. It's becoming the center of the world as time advances as now, nearly everything we do requires technology such that we can't live without them as they make life easier and more fun. In terms of education, as these digital medias evolves, education is also advancing. Thus, the use of these digital media has benefited us globally.

  1. While I read through your points, I have changed my mind regarding technology. Before, I have thought that technology only brings harm to the society as a whole. I thought that modern technology is a virus to the human race since it deprives us of what we originally are. We become lazy, through the use of technology. However, you have opened my narrow and pitiful mind. By using technology appropriately and correctly, the human race can achieve feats that have never even been thought of before. Through your sound arguments and ingenious way of thinking, you have given this soul a new and fascinating point of view regarding modern technology.

    1. Wow...

      So, Jin Mo Ri, did you change your views about modern technology after reading this? Because last time I recalled, you own a blog that discusses modern technology all the same. So... isn't that somewhat contradicting?

      P.S. I'm not really sure, but I am 95% convinced that his and your topic is one of the same. Last time I heard you can't comment on a blog with the same topic as yours :P

  2. It is indeed true that technology has helped us not only for quick communication, but also for educational purposes. You have stated that currently we are able to feel the good impacts of technology,just like what you have mentioned in your essay, turnitin.com benefits both teachers and students. For instance, teachers are able to instantly detect any sign of plagiarism and for students, they are able to find any grammatical errors they make.

    Your arguments are well structured and they are adequately supported with enough information. The sentence are coherent and the essay itself have a proper citation.
