The age of Information Technology has taken a lot of people by surprise. While it has become a way of life for some, others know very little about it and may be unlikely to learn. Eventually we will have a polarised society and this will lead to serious social problems.
To what extent do you agree with this statement?
Our highly informatized era became quite a shock for many of us. At the time one part of society uses new means of information very actively, other people stay in the dark without any chance to make an approach to understanding new technologies. There is a raising awareness of does this problem have a potential danger of slicing the society into two parts which would never understand each other.
It is the fact that many of everyday activities became available for computer users only. For example, if you are a university student, you are supposed to submit your term paper as typed and printed document, they no longer accept hand-written papers. Furthermore, some manufacturers do not distribute information leaflets, but give a website address on their products' packs, thus only the internet users can have an access for product details. The last but not the least, the computer skills became a crucial requirement for employment in urban areas.
Meanwhile, inhabitants of rural areas do not need new means of acquiring information. Their work and everyday activities do not demand using computers. For example, a farmer can use radio to hear news and ordinary mail to communicate.
Taking into account the fact not every citizen can use new information technologies, governments would not change the traditional ways of interaction with their people. It is highly unlikely people would no longer have a possibility to vote by filling papers by hand or do other activities, important for their citizenship.
Informatization of society affected those, who have a need of instant information exchange. People, whose lifestyle do not require any haste in communication have an opportunity to use traditional ways of it. I am assured that as long as situation does not make others to change their way of life against their will, there is no risk of receiving serious social problems.
World Information Technology Day is celebrated on May 17th every year. This day aims to raise awareness about the role that information technology plays in advancing social and economic development worldwide.
The use of Information technology is increasing day by day, we all depend on New technology and we use various technologies to accomplish specific tasks in our daily life. Today we have various technologies which impact our lives in different ways.
One way that information technology affects liesure activitities is by making free time difficult to come by. Technology has made it almost impossible to take off for some uninterupted time to relax and do what you want. Technology has made interuptions a normal part of life.
Social networking websites such as facebook, twitter, myspace, hi5, etc. help people share cultural values and people start to respect each others culture.By N.Chrishanthchrishanth123@gmail.com
One disadvantage of technology is the potential for privacy breaches and data security risks, as personal information can be vulnerable to hackers or unauthorized access. Additionally, overdependence on technology can lead to reduced face-to-face interaction and social skills, impacting human relationships and communication.

To be honest I personally don't believe that this question can be answered since no matter what I think it is just an opinion. However, if it helps you at all I believe that technology could actually be a cause of some social problems. So no, in my opinion technology does not solve social problems.
No, IT is not a social science. IT is information technology and related to computer science.

No, but hating them because of who they are is a major social problem.
