Ethical delimmas.
Question:
1. Do technology devices bring more good than bad people? Explain
2. Should there be more budget for technological researches despite the delimmas they are facing? Explain
3. Should there be a limit to technological advancement? Explain
Answer:
Technology devices can bring more good to people. When it comes to communication.
Because technology will help to communicate each one another. Like for example, mobile
phones is the only one example devices use for communication. When I was in high school, I
don’t have any devices like cellphone to use it so it is hard for me when it comes for
communication.
After I graduate in high school, my cousin give me 3315 Nokia keypad cellphone. It was funny
but it was reality check. Technology is very important to anyone like me because my life work
easier and faster. Talking about gadgets, most of the students especially myself using
smartphone for online class. They used smartphone for research paper. Me as a student of
Palompon Institute of Technology I use for virtual class if needed. For my semi online class, for
my Research. Sometimes I used for social media platform, to update information about covid-
19. Most of all I used smartphone to open the site of dating. I’ll chat them, call them especially
on messenger. I use it to reach out my foreigner. I talk to him in video call. I used Meet me
application to chat anybody. Talking about blessing. This year even if pandemic, I had so many
blessings in my life. When it comes to gadgets or money, I am a Tes Grantes. Ive received 20K
for my studies. So I decided to to buy laptop. Laptop is very important for me as a student. I
can encode my topics in a Microsoft word easily and faster. Laptop is very important because i
can save my files right away in my laptop.
Sometimes I observe that is really bad/ there is a temptation in their life especially the
Gamer-Because nowadays, most of the people in the age of 16 years old and above, they used
an application like mobile legend that they affect his/her studies. I had heard so many news in
television that mostly people are died because of mobile legend. Talking about social media
platform, most of the teenager like me in the age of 12 years old are now experience dating
someone, they chat them totally call them because of smartphone. They cannot control his/her
emotions. So that’s why, gadgets bring out sometimes bad to other people.
