Utilization of Technology & Net
Connectivity
While addressing the students today after the ‘Inter
House Hindi Extempore Competition’ got over I advised the students regarding
how to benefit from such competitions.
We can always benefit from our surroundings provided
we are attentive and eager to learn. God has blessed us all with equal power of
intelligence. No one has more or less
intelligence. It’s how we put this intelligence into use makes us or breaks us.
As we had provided Hindi proverbs to the students
who took part in the extempore it prompted me to share school days experience
of how we were dependent on only books for learning various proverbs. Our interests were restricted to the
availabilities of books. Present day of
technology and net connectivity has made almost everything available on
platters (like, Google, Firefox, Chrome, Wikipedia, etc.). All one needs is to develop the seed of
desire to learn and the rest of the things get unfolded.
As few students get diverted in the class or in such
gatherings and start talking with each other they do not stand to gain as much
as the ones who remain focused. Similarly while browsing the net also few of us
tend to get diverted towards few wasteful activities like games, music, videos
which may not be so useful to us. Though such activities are also essential for
our entertainment, one should be wise enough to know how much time and energy
should be put into them.
Entertainment needs to be taken as salt in our food
of learning and progress; as water that we drink in the middle of our meals in
order to facilitate the process of swallowing and digesting the food and not be
the other way round.
