How Has Technology Changed Our Lives?

Technology has made the world do a whole 360 on the way that we do things in our everyday lives. Whether we are at home, work, school, practice, etc. we are constantly using it. Education plays a huge role in this. Our education is so important for everyday function and with the use of google, phone calls, emails, etc. it makes our lives that much more efficient and we can learn about anything right at the drop of a button. Our communication, teaching methods, and medical research have advanced because of technology. We are able communicate with family from a far, video chat with kids over in China so we can help them learn english, fly across the country to see our loved ones, and we even able to see other planets from a tiny little telescope here on Earth. But, not all technology is good. Technology has made some very important things worse off then they were. For example: our kids don't go out and play like they used to. The generation of kids today are so caught up in video games, cell phones, etc. and it is changing their childhoods drastically and the way that they think. If you think about it, even though technology does so much good in our lives, we could be facing some serious issues in the future. Just like the article said about Mary Poppins. Some day, in the near future, our technology could advance so much that we could be facing a future with robots, footstools at the snap of a finger, and the use of no more teachers do to online schooling.
