A speech on technology
Answers
Good morning and a warm welcome to the annual Science Fair of our school.
We have gathered here on this exciting occasion of a school event emphasizing on the contributions of science in our life. I am deeply moved by this initiative of the school to recognize the little scientists that reside in all of us.
Since we are talking about science, how can we leave out the daughter of science? Therefore I am here today to deliver a speech on ‘technology’. I think we have all come across the term technology but are we completely aware of its meaning?
Broadly we can describe technology as both tangible and intangible entities created by applying physical and mental efforts to develop and achieve something of value. A computer is a tangible example of technology, and the internet is an intangible example of technology.
Other categories that technological inventions fall under are high, intermediate and low.
- High Technology: High technology is considered to be those tools and machines which are almost or entirely automated. High technology is often referred to as smart-tech because the intelligence of the machines is efficient in manipulating ever more exceptional matter and powerful forces.
- Intermediate Technology: Intermediate technology is considered to be those tools and machines which are partially intelligent and semi-automated. Intermediate technology somewhat reduces human labour, and it is efficient in manipulating refined matter and forces of medium level.
- Low Technology: Low technology is considered to be those tools and machines which are labour intensive and the ones which can only manipulate coarse matter or gross matter and weaker forces.
There are other types of technology as well as Industrial, Information, Mechanical, Architecture, Electronic, Communication, Medical, Business, etc. However, the advancements in the field of technology were much slower even twenty years ago when compared to now. At present technology has infiltrated almost every aspect of our life, starting from food production to education and work.
The changes in the technological environment are very rapid, and it is a component which affects the utilization manner of resources. The resources within a technological environment are converted into economically beneficial outputs.
Experts have been debating on whether technology is a boon or a bane to humans for many years now. The reservoir of knowledge is now accessible to us with one click of our fingertips, and this is all thanks to technology. But as far as the concerns of expert go, will the cause of doom of human civilization be also because of technology?
In my view, it all depends on how we are planning to use technology. Controversies around several discoveries and their uses can be limited if every citizen of the world learns to control their greed and focus on the elevation of humankind.
Some of the leading countries in technological developments are Japan, China, South Korea, America, and Germany. I am sure our youth will be able to reach new heights in the field of technology, and one day India will be able to belong to the list of top five countries with the best technology.
It was a real honour and my pleasure to address this brilliant crowd. Thank you for the opportunity.
Answer:
We are in a generation, where technology has surrounded us from all sides. Our everyday life runs on the use of technology, be it in the form of an alarm clock or a table lamp. Technology has been an important part of our daily lives. Therefore, it is important for the students to be familiar with the term technology. Therefore, we have provided a long speech on technology for students of all age groups. There is also a short speech and a 10 lines speech given in this article.
