The everyday lives of people have changed a great deal due to the advent
of technology. They have become easier, faster, more comfortable and dynamic.
But, at the same time, our lives have become lethargic, preposterous and anti-
social just like the computers that have become a part of our lives. The
technology has enriched our lives and enlightened our minds, but in pursuit of its
cozy comforts, people tend to be over-reliant on it, to the point that they can’t

because in many cases, it will be the key for a better tomorrow. As a result of the

from terrible diseases, and other material comforts and amenities in our lives.

a global hunger. But on the other hand, there are negative effects of technology
lingering in our lives. By neglecting basic human instincts like socializing, and
physical exertion, we have become artificial and hollow. Although we are reaping
benefits, we are losing the little of the precious humanity left in our lives due to
over-indulgence.
Technology has affected our lives deeply. We simply cannot imagine living
without it. It has increased our lifespan and quality of living. It has brought us

My parents did not grow up in front of a computer or a PlayStation. They did not

life. For this, it needs to be discussed with experts from many fields and we have
to relate the technology to the organization and the culture in which it should
operate. And remember: There are no side effects – they are part of the

Classroom Technology Doesn’t Make the Grade
Schools are spending billions on digital tools. Students have little to show

At least since the invention of the blackboard two centuries ago, educators have
accelerated that trend, with the market for educational tech in the U.S. and

of their school work on laptops, and almost 60% use tablets for learning.
Yet there’s little evidence that this technology improves student performance —
and excessive use may even have negative effects. A 2015 study of 38 countries
found that those that made large investments in educational technology showed
In the U.S., fourth graders who reported using digital devices in most or all of
their classes did worse on reading tests than students who used them in less

Educational Progress than those who did so only once or twice a year. To the
extent technology plays a productive role, research shows it’s far more helpful for
students in high school and beyond than for grade-schoolers. But even for older
students, the mere presence of devices in the classroom can divide their
ed-tech’s potential. But in the U.S., only 40% of K-12 teachers say that they’ve
received effective training on how to use such tools. More than one-third say that

Considering the strain on public-school budgets, that’s money that students can’t

Before she was a book my best friend was my wife. She was smart and

I stuck the apparatus on her chest with some special tape. I asked the

completely serious when he told me those things are getting pretty common.
The day my wife died I wasn't even thinking about the little thing on her
heart that was supposed to capture her soul for the sake of a book until the nurse
handed it to me. I almost didn't call to have it picked up. With my wife now gone a

I was warned that I would only get one book. That no additional copies

Do You Lie On Facebook?
Kim Z Dale
"When?"
"Well...I guess..."
"I don't really pray much at all. Nothing against your dad."
"But you said you'd pray. When I posted on Facebook that dad was in the
hospital again and asked people to pray for him you said you would."
"No. I mean it's a saying. Something nice to say. I didn't think you'd take it
literally."
"How else would I take it? I asked for prayers. You said you'd pray. You didn't."
"I can't be the only once who says they'll pray for someone but doesn't say an
actual prayer. There are so many people on Facebook asking people to pray for
this and pray for that that I'd spend all day lighting candles if I literally prayed for
everyone."

down to. I had more faith in his doctors than in whatever words I might have

you really? How many lies have there been? What else have you lied about?"
"Well, I guess when I said I hoped your birthday would be awesome I really didn't
care one way or another. Oh, and I didn't actually like your vacation pictures. I
just clicked like to be polite. And I...hey, I'm kidding." Sort of.
