Modern technology is a bane Essay

INTRODUCTION Rationale Modern technology has increased influence in contemporary society. It seems to be contributed many social opportunities. Understanding and taking advantage from technology is the main aspect in contemporary world which is approachable society. The research question about modern technology is seemed to advantage for study and analysis because technology is the most importance in society. Throughout two years experience in Industrial Engineering field, most of mass production process in domestic and foreign countries have concerned with technology that it probably seems to replace social responsibility. Convenience and constant performance can be produced by modern technology. Profound foundation of technology is main propose in prospect of study for master of information and communication technology and master of computer science, therefore more experiences and argument researches can certainly advantage to establish potential basis of study. The analysis of the research topic The purpose of research questions, â€Å"Modern technology is a bane not a boon. Do you agree?† is to analyze and argue the disadvantage or the advantage of modern technology which is regarded as a bane or a boon. In the research topic question has two aspects of discussion about modern technology is a bane not a boon or modern technology is a boon not a bane. Bane of modern technology can attribute to social problems that have increased unemployment problem, social stress levels and destruction of natural ecology. There is more conclusive evidence of social problems that has contribute by disadvantage of modern technology; for example, machine replacement in factory, increased unemployment rate after terrorist attack, increased social stress level, pollution by modern technology, extinct of natural resources and forest area and hazardous waste in nature. Although it cannot be denied that modern technology has contributed to advantage, it should also be seen that modern technology has negatively affected social degeneration. Modern technology is a bane. The diagram in this below shows  structure of the analysis of research question. DATA COLLECTION The research method The research has completed in four steps. First of all, chosen research question, answer of the research question was required by exploit background and information from pass experience and analysis of key concept. In the second step, secondary source from research book and current journal article was analyzed and evaluated for selection to confirm main idea. The information and objectivity from author, which has encouraged an argument must be related and specified with question propose. Accordingly, it should confirm argument by provided strong and reasonable evidence to supporting research answer. The third step, review and revise of verbal structure and logical concept have done by reviewer in the draft of research. Although the research was based on personal observations or expert opinions, background and pass experience about argument in research answer is significance. The forth step was rewritten and improved the research by add more evidence to compose strongly research. Therefore more evidence has provided from current journal article in many way, such as newspaper or internet to modernized information. However, the research was completed in four steps, but analysis of argument research and technology foundation is required for improvement. Annotated bibliography Brown, A. (2001).

This chapter describes the technology imperative lies, which is debated over technology and progress, at contemporary. It identifies the affect of technology in term of contemporary crisis from the historical problem based on American society and culture. This chapter uses case studies to analyze and illuminate a relation of today’s technology based on American history, especially in Maine. This chapter is written for researchers who are studying in unadulterated technological progress. Weil, M. M. & Rosen, L. D. (1997). How TechnoStressed Are You?. In M. M. Weil & L. D. Rosen, TechnoStress: coping with technology @ work @ home @ play (pp.1-26). New York: John Wiley & Sons, Inc.. This chapter describes how technology stresses people. It presents about increased stress levels in contemporary society which has caused by technology. The focus point of this chapter shows relationship between development of technology on frustration feeling and annoyance feeling which has contributed to stress levels. This chapter is written for researchers who are undertaking in area of psychological sciences or development of technological science. The critical review During the past three decades, the ecological crisis has been problematic basis to society. Modern technology has constructed ecology crisis. Sung UK Hwang, in a 1999, attempts to identify a disciplinary apparatus behide the problematic ecological crisis. Hwang, a PhD in political science at the University of Connecticut, disserting on â€Å"Green Capitalism: A Dangerous Liaison†, focuses on personalized responsibility and provides a case of global management to treat ecologic problem. Therefore, sustainable  refinement of ecological crisis is complicated and seemed to be ideology. However this article is thought-provoking enhancement of natural ecology in contemporary society. This article can be advanced for natural research study for understanding contemporary ecology crisis. Disciplinary apparatus behide the ecological crisis is imperative proclamation in contemporary society. Ecological crisis can be defined as a natural degrading phenomenon, such as global warming, ozone depletion, resource exhaustion, and toxic pollution. An additional a disciplinary apparatus, Hwang has defined as an acceleration of ecology crisis that can analyze within three factors. The first is an increased population that can be impacted to ecological sources, the second is exhausted natural resources by consumption of technology, and the third is natural resources exploitation that is used for supporting economics. Thus, this article has presented detail of each mention as a key term of cause-effect in ecological crisis. However, it seems that the most important apparatus in this article is exhausted natural resources by technology because technology seems to be increased influence in contemporary society. On the other hand, it should be recognized negative affect of technology through ecology crisis. Among a disciplinary apparatus of ecological crisis in this analysis, perhaps the most interesting is the consistency which Hwang suggests between ecological degeneration from development of modern technology and increasing population in society. Indeed, it seems to be that an ecological crisis might be depended on increased population growth rate because more consumption demands of population are accelerated exhaust of natural resources and technology is as an apparatus for increased exhaust rate. An additional making this important relation, Hwang analyzes a greenism behavior that is claimed environmentalist and ecologist to study relationship between modern technology and the population rate in West Chester. However, Hwang’s view on each element of the ecological crisis has based on the claim that ecological crisis requires the supporting scientific evidence of advanced technology which is major cause of the ecology crisis but this  evidence is used a less of statistic database to support. This claim is reasonable, although it seems to be unprovable evidence. Because of many information from secondary sources shows that technology has increased ecology crisis in contemporary society. Hwang also suggests that the reason why affectation from modern technology must be proclaimed that is inseparability in ecological crisis because of it is unnoticed fact of ecological debacle. Without further documentation, this concept is hard to accept because it is unprovable claim. Moreover, Hwang calls upon research experience in a firm he founded on database from Intel Corporation, which is presented about hazardous waste from its product. However, more questions need to be made available by Hwang to prove and support the evidence so strong, such as How can modern technology make ecological disaster? Perhaps the fault in Hwang’s reasoning is his claim that technology itself is a major cause for ecology crisis. This claim is probably incorrect because ecology crisis maybe not only occur from technology but also it causes by the user who apply or implement technology. Even though modern technology can be validated a warning of ecological crisis, society should determine about the affect through the natural destruction. It seems that, in general, his research is more appropriate for the victim who receives more effect on the disaster crisis that has to deal with contemporary technology. Because technology can cause social problem through ecology crisis and unrecognized of disadvantaged technology is increased trouble in society. Finally from Hwang’s research, the conclusion of ecological crisis is caused from many factors and it is early imperative subject for society. One factor of ecological crisis is from modern technology because technology can be exhausted many natural resources that is caused about destruction of natural ecology and environment crisis. It is probably suitable way for contemporary society to utilize technology in only positive way not in the negative way by conserved natural resources because technology can extinct all of natural resources easier. The analysis of research The research was limited by the time limitation. Argument writing and evidence source is caused of trouble. According to the question of research must be related by pass experience and current information that can initiate time limitation. Research source and collected information was limited progress of the research because of un-updated information or unrelated research source and indistinguishable propose of author. An additional limitation, ambiguity of the research topic and aspect of research question can attributed to limited research. Consistent with research question should be specified or focused on the advantage or disadvantage of technology, such as computer or communication technology. Other possible factors that limit the research is deficiency of background in pass experience, but it can solve by searched secondary source form library or modernized information. Thus, although topical question has limited the research, the research can be improved foundation of technology and argument writing. The suggestions for future study If this topic area was chosen again, same kind of research question in technology field would be selected. Throughout pass experience and current global situation can construct proficient foundation about modern technology. Contemporary world has many kinds of resource to develop basis of technology knowledge; for instance, newspaper and internet is the modernized information to supply comprehensive demand. Consequently analysis of research topic area can implement with that kinds of modernized information. Moreover the possible areas that should be taken into consideration for any similar research in future maybe scope in politics about immigration from underdeveloped country or contemporary psychological problem because these problems have increased negative effect on many countries in the world. Based on pass experience and current opinion, it is different idea to evaluate consequence of technology throughout social problems; however technology should be regarded to utilize in only the positive way not in the negative way.
