▶ Your Answer :
Some people might agree with
the idea that technology has made our children less creative than in the past.
However, I personally believe that it is not good idea. There are two reasons.
First, children could invest time saved by technology to be more creative.
Second, technology gives several methods which children could use creatively.
To begin with, technology could help
students to save time and think more creatively. There are a number of
technologies that children could get aids. These aids make decrease time used
to accomplish somethings. Therefore, children could use this time to another
creative thinking and activities. For instance, I talk about me and my friend
to elucidate my point. In the case of me, I always used technology like
computer to do my assignments. Dislike me, my friend never used technology and
did all of homework by himself. When our teacher gave an assignment that needed
some sort of creativity, I did very well it. However, she could not finish her
work in limited time. This was because she wasted of time for minor things, so,
could not have enough time. In this case, it is undeniable that technology would help
children to be more creative by making time saved.
On the top of that, there are many creative
ways that children could use. Technology insists new horizons of contemplating
for students. By using diverse kind of technology, students could think in
different ways. For example, a study was conducted by a group of education
major to determine whether technology influence children's creativity. There
were two groups existed. First group was consisted of children who get help
with technology and apparatus. Second group was formed of children who do not
have any technology and apparatus. After enough researching, researchers
concluded that the first group showed more creative that second group in
solving problems. In following interviews, students replied that they could answer the questions differently with technology. This study proved that technology gives a positive influence
to student's creativity.
To sum up, using technology makes children
save time and improve their creativity. In this regard, I strongly disagree with
this idea.
