EDUCATION IS INCOMPLETE WITHOUT TECHNOLOGY...DO YOU AGREE?

In education, technology has successfully established its remarkable position that without its help, education seems to be incomplete. There’s no doubt in the fact that we’ve profoundly immersed in the pool of technology.  Now, in many well-reputed and expensive academic institutions there’s an absolute use of technology through online results, online submission of assignments, projector in every class for a presentation, internet— WI FI – facility, even online discussions regarding the discussion on any specific topic, and last but not the least the printers.

 Yesterday I saw the printer advertisement on T.V where any product model was promoted that prints an outstanding picture quality of student’s science assignment, and he achieve the highest marks in class for a well-written assignment.  This advertisement draws my attention towards the need of printers for student’s personal use; I wondered how mandatory it is for students to have an internet facility and printers at home for their ease as I’ve seen few parents who belong to conservative approach due to which they don’t allow their children to avail this facility at home. Let’s assume their son/daughter has got an assignment that has to submit in hard copy, and it should be computer typed, then how they’ll manage to do it?

Being a parent, I believe in providing them all comfort as we can’t compromise in their education, thus we try our best to facilitate them with the luxury of technology. My husband decided to buy an online printer for our son who’s in high school now, so he can take a printout of guiding essays, and helpful notes on his subjects. My husband don’t have much knowledge about printers, their different models, functions, and companies that provide best printers, so he consulted his friend who sells printers in U.S.A, he suggested my husband some online e-commerce websites where he’ll not only get the good collection of printers but will also get the cheap toner cartridge as well.

We were looking for a multifunctional printer so he can take colored, black & white prints according to his work requirements. Within a week, the order was dispatched and he was glad to see his new printer by HP Company. I acknowledge that being a parent it’s our right to monitor the children’s activity especially when they’re in their teenage that is very sensitive period of time, yet it doesn’t mean to stagnate their skills and bound them to enjoy the perks of latest inventions in technology as I don’t believe in tying them with excessive restrictions. When it comes to education, and children’s future I dislike the concept of creating taboo on their way to a destination.
