Computer
Everywhere you look you see some sort of computer. There everywhere from schools, to the grocery store checkout line, movie theatres and even in the shirt pockets of some businessmen. Back about ten years ago it was a chore to find someone with a computer, and the Internet please what good is that. As time went on computers became just as common as television sets in homes straight across America. Now it seems if you don’t have an Internet connection what’s the point of having a computer. Also there is not a day throughout the year that we do not hear the word “e-mail” or a new www.something.com business. Computers and technology are totally giving the workplace, education, and for that matter the world a complete overhaul. As I see the metamorphosis happen before my eyes I believe that it is imperative that young children and adults of all ages become familiar with and start using this new super tool called the computer. I do not think I could stress enough the importance of having children become computer literate. The computer is just going to become a bigger and bigger tool in our new cyber-space era. The computer should be introduced to youngsters in the low elementary grades and slowly worked into the curriculum to
For people who don't know much about computers, you will be lost in the future. You should learn what you can while you still have the chance, because things will develop too quickly for you and you will not be able to cope with new technological events. Computers will fall into careers and our everyday life more rapidly then you think. Having a job that involves computers, in terms of the conditions, is very much similar to any office job. In most of the common jobs, the worker will get to an office in the morning, sit at a desk, in front of a computer, and will do very little manual labor except a lot of typing. For example, the computer consultant we have already mentioned, might do several jobs, a few being: Traveling to clients computers, writing customized programs, repairing computer parts, and teaching/ guiding students in learning. Only the repair aspect of this job, would require actual manual labor. However, computers and computer parts are so well built and shall continue to be even more well built, that repair is only a small fraction of a consultant's daily routines. Overall, conditions for the majority of jobs dealing mainly with computers, shall include very little manual labor, unfavorable conditions, and much knowledge, typing skills, and good communication skills in dealing with people. Perhaps you would like to be a teacher. You will store all class data, students work, names, grades, records all accessible by computer. Or, how about a doctor. You will use computers to examine and evaluate a patients problem quicker and more efficiently. These are only a few examples. The bottom line is, computers provide worthwhile careers. I also think computer literacy is important for adults too. However I do not think computer literacy is more of a priority for older adults as it is for children. I believe adults should know at the very least the basics about the computer and the Internet. For example the other day I showed my grandfather how to instant message me when I’m online and how to e-mail me when I’m not. He was delighted to have accomplished such a feat at his age. He was amazed to see how easy it was to communicate online. I also believe that showing older Americans how to use the computer would keep them out of boredom and loneliness. For example if old Grandma Smith wanted to write to her Granddaughter Sally across the county or even across the globe for that matter the letter would arrive within seconds of it being sent. If middle-aged me
