Technology has become a huge part of almost everything we
do. Our cell phones, laptops, iPods, and many other devices make everything a
lot simpler, but do have their downfalls. Today, many people would not know
what to do without this technology. Laptops and cell phones give people the
advantage of doing their homework or paper almost anywhere and the ability to
be connected with people almost 24/7. What would we do without it? I know that
I would be lost and everything would take much longer to accomplish. Without
these connections with people we would know less of what is going on in the
world and get to know fewer people of different social groups. Media and
technology is very influential on how we view social groups and how we see the
interactions between social groups. Without technology we would not get to interact with students in Russia. People that come from a small town do not get
to associate with different groups, but with media and technology this interaction and growth is possible. The
downfall of all of this is that people use technology and media all the time. For example, it is used as a
distraction when people are bored or sitting in class.
