In the journal article “Influence of long term use of a computer on median, ulnar and radial sensory nerves in wrist region”, a study was done between computer users and none computer users. The result showed that the nerves that are located in the wrist region (ulnar and median nerves) gets damaged even without and neurological dysfunctions, just because the wrist part is being extended while typing or using the mouse (Bamac, Belgin, et al., 1033.) on the website of U.S. library of medicine it is stated that ulnar nerve damage can cause complications like deformity of hand, partial or complete loss of hand/wrist movement or sensation in hand/fingers etc. This is just one of the few health problems that we are facing or about to face as a new big problems if we keep using computers limitless. Another way the computers hurts a student is by hurting their capability to focus on study while working through a computer. Teens tend to have very playful mind and it’s already hard for them to focus on boring thing like study. So when they are in front of the computer screen, how can you expect them to pay their 100 percent attention to study? Plus they have the Internet and growing social media uses and gaming just lights up the fire more. So, why we allow them to be in front of the computer for study? Is that become so impossible to make the kids study without the use of a computer? Some people say it’s easy and entertaining way to study for the kids and they learn better. Agreed.
I have challenged myself in many ways throughout my educational life. One area of interest that I am proud I have pursued is my contribution to the community, by volunteering at Cats Only Veterinary Clinic. This position taught me a lot about myself and helped me learn about some areas I would like to explore in the future. I have been spending extra time learning information about the biology and chemistry of a cat to help me with my future educational goals. The Veterinarians at the Cats Only Clinic have been extremely kind to me by letting me get involved in learning more about the science behind cats. I have got the satisfaction of being able to observe surgical and no surgical operations like Radiology (x-rays), Dentistry, Spaying, Neutering,
When i’m not using technology I can focus and concentrate on content. Being able to focus can make the class more engaging and improve grades. Nicholas Carr stated that “ When we use our cellphones and our computer all the time we are always distracted.” Without technology we can be focused on the content we are studying and get more accomplished.”
video games have also a negative effect on the health of children like Carpal Tunnel Syndrome has long been related with computer use this caused when the main nerve between the forearm and hand is held or pressed. This occurs when the carpal tunnel the area of the wrist that contains the main nerve becomes irritated. Overuse of a computer mouse can cause such irritation, as can extreme use of a video game
First, there’s the case where students aren’t able to afford a computer. This causes to affect their grades, school learning experience, and their mental health poorly. Most students have parents or guardians that constantly want them to get good grades and when that isn’t possible some students don’t take it very easily. Another thing is that it can hurt their grades because now in most schools their system relies greatly on computers. Teachers use computers for assigning homework, being able to research topics in class, and giving weekly assignments that are made to be done at home also. This can make a student become behind in
01/12/16 Progress Report documented that the patient has persistent pain in the ulnar left arm and forearm, which radiates into the ulnar hand, ring, and small fingers. It was noted that the MRI performed on 02/15 was of the left WRIST. The left elbow, arm, and forearm have not been imaged. The nerve conductions study was consistent with persistent and worsening ulnar compression neuropathy, possibly secondary to compression at flexor fascia of proximal forearm and intermuscular septum of medial arm; following attempted
This is an insane thought as the teacher ought to be conscious of a student’s attention span. It’s shocking! We see something inventive and fool around for hours and hours, in the end, our work an absolute disappointment. They believe we can achieve a full written essay for the next day in the aid of our computer. Indeed the internet is great help, however the greatest help of all, Wikipedia, is not approved to be copied, so we must refuse to accept the temptation of our surroundings and finish the work with every letter being our own. Imagine life without no homework that involves technology, which is ironic as the answers are all there; but it’s a beautiful vivid image of stress free students who don’t need to be upset or troubled. Technology is also becoming extremely unsafe if it is not used correctly. Technology has introduced social networking sites, which can take advantage of a Childs vocabulary. Children do not get an opportunity to talk face-to-face and this is dangerous to their social skills to not only children but everyone, as they do not have time to communicate, they can use text, email, facebook and other social networking sites, which can have them adapting to slang. Social networking sites are not just hazardous to ones vocabulary but also because some are cyber bullied and groomed over the internet. I despise how people truly get satisfaction from hurting someone psychologically,
The purpose of this research paper is to solve the question: Do computers cause permanent eye damage? The selected hypothesis supported the idea that prolonged computer usage does not cause permanent eye damage. The evidence provided shows that external factors such as lighting are responsible for the vision impairment. In addition, prolonged computer usage only leads to a temporary eye inflammation known as dry eyes and it is uncommon for dry eyes to cause permanent vision loss. The report 's conclusion proves that the hypothesis is correct. The only effect from computer usage towards our vision is a temporary syndrome called CVS (Computer Vision Syndrome).
A Psychoanalytical Study of Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Fall of the House of Usher” Ellie Novotny Edgar Allan Poe’s The Fall of the House of Usher is rich with psychoanalytic themes of repression, desire, and instinct presentation. Poe’s setting is often personified and sentient, and this has profound effect on Roderick Usher and the narrator. The House takes on life, and even represents the family itself through metonymy.
Author, Eliana Dockterman in her article,¨The Digital Parent Trap¨, exposes the potential benefits of technology use among young people. Dockterman´s purpose is to directly inform us about how studying and learning from computers and hand hale gadgets can actually improve our education mentally. Us the younger generation who are being physically exposed to this more and more should benefit from these opportunities that are being given to us,¨Dockterman¨ stated in her article that using technology is the next step for teens to learn since this is what keeps us a focused. With this being said I conclude that gadgets are the future of learning since we have advanced this 21st century.
The final result of using digital devices during school hours is not a good one. Students can cheat more easily, which means that they are not preparing for the future and society.
If you could choose whether computers are distracting or non-distracting for school then what would you choose? I think that computers are both distracting and non-distracting because it could distract you but there are things you can do for it not to be distracting. Computers could be good like they can give you lots of knowledge from it.but some people say that when using a computer in an exam it could make the student perform worse exams. They also think kids are only using computers to play on them and use them for what they are not supposed to. For example they go on youtube and watch whatever they want whenever they want they also go on gaming sites and a lot more other things.
This research is a study about the bad side effects of using computer to human health. Since, computer is widely used by all level of community, so we should know the bad side effect of using computers to our health. In order to reduce the bad side effects of using computers, this research suggests the ways to maintain our health when using computer.
Furthermore, as communication and writing skills diminish our school performance begins to be affected. The entertainment of mobile devices distracts nearly every student in the classroom whether it is texting, or playing games, or surfing the net. Mobile devices also play a big role in communication by making it possible for students to easily communicate with each other when they should not be. The power to communicate with virtually anyone is a major distraction. Some teens are so attached to their technological devices they sleep with phones on and wake up to answer text messages they get at night. When kids have cell phones in their classrooms they are extremely distracted from what is actually being taught. They are looking down and playing their games or going on social networking sites instead of listening to their teachers. With the constant distraction of technology and teens short attention spans reading and writing skills have suffered significantly and vocabularies are shrinking. This relates to their education and their ability to do well in school. Another problem is that technology provides students with the ability to explore numerous search engines for any problem they come across and copy them word for word. It seems that students don’t spend time thinking; they are simply repeating information instead of learning concepts and ideas. When students do this, they do not actually learn the
The use of laptops and cellphones seem like a good use to the students, but are they really? With the use of technology in the classroom student’s grades are seeming to become lower and lower as the days go on. Multitasking while in the classroom has resulted in the lowering of grades of the students. Multitasking with the use of technology such as laptops, and cellphones is not recommended in the classroom- like environments, and affects the brains way of learning.
Marijuana comes from Cannabis Sativa, an annual herbaceous plant in the Cannabis genus family. The pharmacologically active ingredient in marijuana is tetra-hydro-cannabinol, a chemical compound used to heighten perception, decrease anxiety, slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease, and can ease the pain of multiple sclerosis (Butterfield, 2017). It is estimated that about 30% of adults in the U.S. use marijuana because they assume it is harmless (that’s debatable). Signs of marijuana use include bloodshot eyes, lethargy, uncoordinated body movements, confusion, lack of focus, and increased cravings for snacks. The continued use of smoking marijuana increases their chance of developing cancer in places such as the mouth, tongue, larynx or pharynx. Legalizing marijuana is an extensive legal battle for several reasons. First, legalizing marijuana would make it available to individuals that genuinely need it. The objections of the federal government resisting legalization have nothing to do with how much harm it may or may not cause. Instead, their objections are based on pharmaceutical companies resisting legalization because their profits would decrease from the legal use of marijuana (Armand, 2016). Since marijuana is classified as a schedule one drug, scientist/doctors believe that the use of the drug has no medical purposes. However, former Surgeon General of the United States Jocelyn Elders states, that there is evidence the suggest marijuana can relieve specific
