It also shows what we used to communicate with each other in our everyday lives. Then with cell phones they can look back and see what us old generations used, just like we think about landlines or things that are obsolete. Cell phones now have things that are so cool and in the future people might think it is so old and played out. I would also place that item in the time capsule because it shows what we did for interest and used it for everyday life. Some people wouldn’t be anywhere without their cell phone and would go crazy in our time.
I believe they should not just be permitted to use cell phones, they should be required to use them. Cell phones don’t just allow students to stay connected with family and friends, they are also an excellent learning resource, and they encourage the responsible use of technology. To begin with, cell phones make it possible for students to stay in touch with family and friends.A student can call home and ask a family member to bring them a forgotten assignment or lunch money or to come pick them up if they are sick. Also, cell phones allow parents to keep track of their children’s whereabouts before,during, and after school. And, of course, there’s always the possibility of a student needing to contact a parent because of a dangerous situation.
According to Jessica Naziri of USA Today (2015), while the current generation is considered to be more advanced when it comes to the use of technologies, the Baby Boomers are not lagging far behind. Most of them also enjoy shopping online. But most of all, they create and use the social media to connect with their loved ones, family and
Discipline and the Cell Phone The smartphone is a modern convenience that is morphing into a member of our society. Although the effects of smartphones are both negative and positive, they are a valuable and useful part of our daily lives. We almost consider them a member of the family. They help us stay in touch with each other, complete homework and work assignments, store and play music, and keep everyone happy during long car trips. However, when the phones are demanding too much time and attention, like the children, they have to go into time-out.
Teen-Parent Communication About Sex When young people feel unconnected at home, family, and school, they may become involved in activities that put their health at risk. However, when parents affirm the values of their children, young people often develop positive, healthy attitudes about themselves, therefore delaying in sexual activity. The writer’s purpose(s) for writing these articles is because risky teen behavior is on the rise, and what are parents and families doing/not doing to promote safe behavior? I chose these articles because I am a teen parent, and I feel that if I had been able to have “the talk” sooner, more in depth, and more often, that it may have prevented my pregnancy. Teen Sexuality’s research showed a few things: Adolescents who stated that they were connected with their parents were more likely than other teens to delay sexual intercourse.
For me actually I was confused why people focus on the built-in entertainment services while they can do the exact same thing maybe even more on their smartphone? So after I read the results I was happy that this examination confirmed my opinion. I believe it’s very logical that people prefer using the smartphone rather than built-in technology, the smartphone is much faster and easier and above all it can do almost everything in one single device. About the dual-screen laptops that can celebrate presence, I’m not 100% sure if it’s a good project or not. If someone tries to communicate with me through a computer while I’m sitting in the other table, I’ll find it really weird and awkward.
All one needs is a smartphone, such as an iPhone or an Android, and they can fulfill all of their daily tasks from the touch of the same button. Although such technology has made the lives of Americans much more productive, cellphone technology has made people more detached from society and less aware of their surroundings. Cellphones have given Americans a false sense of reality in which the average person believes that multitasking while using a mobile phone is an effective use of one’s time. If Americans can better distinguish when it is appropriate to use their cellphones, users can prevent themselves from making mistakes, whether they are small or large, due to inattentiveness. This is not a problem of cellular phone technology; it is one of not knowing when it is appropriate to engage in cellphone use.
The Deep Relationship between My Children and Their Cell Phones The relationship between my children and their cell phone must be driven by something deep that makes them want to spend more time with their cell phone, than with real people. These days most of the conversations I have with my children begins with, ring, ring. Before I hear good morning, how are you doing? or I love you, the ring, ring comes first. Cell phone technology is good in some ways, but it has caused so many problems along the way of its innovation.
Since mobile devices are primarily used for socializing and entertainment, I think trying to integrate them into educational lessons would only be opening a Pandora's Box. More children would be distracted, rather than assisted, by the use of these devices. Can Mobile Devices Transform Education? The popularity of smartphones, including androids, iPhones, and BlackBerries, that now have GPS, texting, voice, and multimedia capabilities has prompted industry and education reformers to shine the light on these mobile devices as vehicles suitable for transforming K–12 learning for the 21st century. Although they present challenges as well as potential benefits, education experts reason that these powerful small computers motivate students; provide constant access to the wealth of knowledge, tools, and experts on the web; and are cheaper and more plentiful than laptops or desktop workstations.
Kids still need to be limited on how often they are using the technology. Exposure to technology isn’t all bad, yet there are numerous negative effects of technology on children. Many parents face the complex decision of the right age of having a cellphone. With advertisements of cellphones showing their main characters as teenagers and preteens, the peer pressure on our kids today is overwhelming. Most teens have their first cellphone by freshmen year of high school, which seems acceptable.
