 The Benefits of Access to Technology


There are two benefits that can be obtained from access to technology in the future. First of all, it will offer electronic paper screens to students. Students do not need to buy any papers and pens for their course. They can use electronic paper screens to do homework or take notes. Another benefit of access to technology is that it would give more online educational games to students. Students can play many different kinds of games in their free time, and these games also help students learn some skills. Today, many people do not have equal access to technology because they do not have money to pay for it. People affected by the digital divide might gain access to these benefits through two ways. The first way would be that the governments provide more free wireless networks in public places, such as shopping malls, libraries and parks. When people need wireless networks, they can go to the public places to use the Internet. The other way is that some companies offer free or reduced prices for students or people who live in a low-income family and can not afford it. These two ways can give some opportunities to use technology.

  1. I think it is a good idea to have more public wifi. This would create places for people to go where they could get the same benefits as other internet users.
