IMPACT OF TECHNOLOGY IN THE GROWTH OF NATION

We are living in the Technology world. Modern technology has paved the way for multi-functional devices like a Smart watch and the Smartphone. Computers are increasingly faster, more portable, and higher-powered than ever before. With all of these revolutions, technology has also made our lives easier, faster, better, and more fun.

For example, 30 years ago when students would write research papers they would rely solely on library books and interviews for their information. While students now, use the internet to find all the information they desire. It has completely changed how people do simple tasks and made complicated ones easier.

Now let’s see how technology helps in the growth of the nation:

• GROWTH IN EDUCATION AUTOMATICALLY LEADS TO GROWTH OF NATION:

 The Internet has a lot of information and knowledge on it as we saw in the intro example now it is very easy to get information about anything. Online classes are gaining its importance. Today everyone is heading towards e-learning. It is not very costly and gives you more benefits than regular classes.

• GROWTH IN HEALTH INDUSTRY: 

Health is the most important factor in our life. Today the health industry is filled with a lot of technology. Many machines help to identify the problems inside the body. It is fast and more accurate than a human being. Cancer treatments will not have so many harmful side effects and will not be as painful, and it is also predicted that type 1 diabetes will be completely preventable. You can find your major health problem with a simple test. Even robotic surgery is now new and demanding in heath technology. 

• AUTOMATION: 

Yes, that’s true. You control how you want something done, but it is done completely by the machinery being used. You may not realize how often you use automation. It is something as simple as a thermostat or a coffee maker and as tough as a jet plane.

• GROWTH IN ENVIRONMENT:

Though many people in developed countries take for granted simple things such as clean water, more than 1.8 billion people lack a dependable source of drinking water, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). Engineers have played a key role in reducing those numbers through various projects, such as building piped connections or other sanitary sources such as public taps, protected wells, and boreholes.

• TECHNOLOGY HELPS IN JOB CREATION:

The ICT sector is and is expected to remain, one of the largest employers. Information technology jobs are expected to grow by 22% up to 2020. In the US, for each job in the high-tech industry, five additional jobs, on average, are created in other sectors. Numerous public services have become available online and through mobile phones.

• BUSINESS INNOVATION THROUGH TECHNOLOGY:

In OECD countries, more than 95% of businesses have an online presence. The Internet provides them with new ways of reaching out to customers and competing for market share. Over the past few years, social media has established itself as a powerful marketing tool. So, most of the online businesses are good chances to win the hearts of customers. 

Technological advances have significantly improved operations and lowered the cost of doing business. Advancements in the computer industry, coupled with advancements in telecommunications, have increased job opportunities and strengthen economic growth. While technological advancements provide plenty of luxuries and make life easier in developed countries, these same tools are life-saving in developing nations. As challenges persist, there will be a continuing need for innovative solutions to problems and new technology to transform the lives of the less fortunate.
