too much dependence on technology is not good

Monitoring technology at times is important
Everybody speaks so good about technology. Our life has been so much interwined with technology. Technology has entered into our life so intimately that we depend entirely on technology. So, I feel that too much dependence on technology is not good.
In the school education, the children do not spend much time actually learning what the teachers are teaching laboriously. WHy? Because, they can get everything from the internet when they reach home. Just before the examination, the children browse the net and get ready for the test. They also share their assignments online. They also seek the help of online tutors and they do not learn seriously.
In the name of education, the children also use these electronic gadgets in other ways. The meaning of hardwork has been wiped out by technology. For example if the child wants to know the meaning of some difficult world, they just google it. In fact there is very little interaction with the teacher now a days as the children depend tooo much on the computer. The concept of teacher student relation has totally changed. So, is this a really good change?
Well, so technology is very good and helpful but at the same time we should watch how the technology is used. If it is becoming a problem better be selective in using technology. We are the masters of the technology and not the slaves of technology.
