Does technology enhance your learning?

As mankind keep developing, technology grows. It is known that nowadays technology is the major part of how people learn and interact with the world.

Nowadays, technology is the best learning tool that you can learn anything from anywhere. Because people can gather and share information with just a single click. Compare to the older way for learning, we need to search for relevant books or have someone to teach us in order to learn something. It is quite a waste of time.  

Internet is one of the technology pathway that we can learn up to date information. There are also many websites that provide online courses. Of course, most of them will have charges.
But no doubt that internet is the best platform for self learner.
Whenever we faced problems, we can always find solutions online. Many people will sure think that Google is their best teacher. Indeed, we always do. Therefore, I am glad to have this technology so that I can learn and gain skills fast and easy.

Beside that, environment is very important in the process of learning. I can’t agree that classrooms, library or wherever place that people thinks suitable is the best place for learning. Everyone have their own comfort atmosphere where they can easily catch up their learning. With technology, you can choose your own comfortable place to do learning,

Furthermore, there are many mode of learning we can choose with technology. Especially with websites and apps. For example, I can learn how to cook on Youtube, or I can download an apps to learn Korean anytime whenever I have the access of internet connection.
Another example is e-book. People had transfer the informations from books to e-books. It is a safer way to keep informations and the access is unlimited. You can only have one or maybe two people to share a book but with e-book we can share for as many people as we want. So, the cycle of knowledge become faster. Many people can learn more things than they used to.
Technology make learning experience more exciting compare to the old way. Not only we can choose the platforms we want to learn but we can also explore to other relevant sources as many as we could.

With technology, we can choose what to learn, when to learn, how to learn and where to learn.
