The Importance of Mastering Information Technology for
Teenagers |
|
|
In this decade, technological advancement has changed the way of life of
conventional society to rely on the conveniences that have been created. The
birth of gadgets such as computers and smartphones has had a significant impact
on every human group, whether for personal use or for corporate organizations.
Information technology can be defined as the use of computer and
telecommunication systems to store, retrieve, protect, process, view, and send
information without any time and place limitations. Like all human creations,
there is nothing perfect. The same goes for information technology, where there
are negative and positive effects of its use. Therefore, it is essential for us
to learn and master this technology so that we can eliminate the cloudy and take
the clear. Teenagers and children, who are the future pillars of the nation,
should master information technology in line with its development so that the
benefits that can be obtained can be fully utilized.
One of the benefits of mastering information technology is to enhance general
knowledge among teenagers. Recently, young people are not interested in or
concerned about current issues or the latest information because they prefer to
play video games and indulge in entertainment programs. Adolescents should be
aware of the development of current issues that occur domestically and
internationally. Heavy issues such as political developments, financial
management, and health problems generally do not receive attention from this
group. However, with the development of information technology, such as social
media, all information can be obtained quickly without regard to time and place
limitations. The spread of news is also faster if uploaded to social media,
which has become the latest information hub. General knowledge is essential so
that teenagers can recognize and know their rights and can provide opinions or
solutions regarding current issues that make foreign countries restless.
Additionally, they can learn from what is happening in other countries and not
repeat the same mistakes in this country. In conclusion, by studying information
technology, it helps to produce teenagers who have broad knowledge and do not
behave like frogs under the coconut shell.
Furthermore, information technology can help empower the skills of teenagers. In
facing today's modernization trends, most of us, especially teenagers, must
master more than one skill to remain relevant in any field of work. This is
because the scope of employment offered at present requires highly skilled and
diverse workers. For example, communication skills and self-image have become
the main criteria for evaluation in career development in the future. Therefore,
teenagers can learn skills outside the classroom through video streaming
applications like YouTube. Additionally, teenagers also need to cultivate the
adaptation of technology usage in daily life because all aspects of life in the
future will be filled with technology that is easier and more efficient to
manage. In line with the rapid development of technology, teenagers must also be
wise in adding other skills to become an added value to themselves when starting
a career.
At the same time, mastering information technology can also facilitate
communication between human beings without any time and place limitations. The
existence of technology applications such as WhatsApp has changed human
communication, where voice calls via telephone have now been improved with video
calls. You can meet face-to-face in real-time and communicate better.
Long-distance relationships have become commonplace in society, and this helps
the globalization process that needs to be accepted and utilized by teenagers,
in particular. |
