From Struggle to Ease: How This Generation is Leveraging Technology for Knowledge

in Hive Learners9 days ago

Getting knowledge can be so easy in this generation, we have all it takes at the tip of our fingers, and we do not need to struggle like the older generation to obtain knowledge. Life is becoming easier every day, it only depends on how we make use of every opportunity, Everything now comes on a platter of gold but most people still ignore it and prefer to suffer for being ignorant.

Technology has taken over so many things, and using phones and laptops is now helpful, I can never remember the last time I visited a library when I could research on my phone, there are so many Apps that are helpful in terms of doing research and it will be perfect.

Having access to easy knowledge has better our lives, most of us now study online in another country and have our original certificate without the stress of obtaining a Visa and the like, there are so many online universities where you can enroll yourself if you are not good with crowd and you are good to go.

So many of us are blessed in search of knowledge, it is not only by books but we have what it takes through technology to defeat poverty, I was chatting with some of my mates and asking questions about life after school, and most of them told me that they are into remote jobs and they are doing fine, they are independent and this is based on the knowledge they acquired from online after school, it was an easy access that they make use of.

I have been learning so many things online, for example, I saw a recipe online and I was so skeptical about the result, I immediately picked up my phone and opened my YouTube to learn more about it, I watched the process and I went straight to my kitchen to try it out and it came out perfect like the one I saw, if to say I wanted to contact the chef I saw the recipe on her page it would have charged me a lot because she is one of the classic Nigeria chefs but I have easy access to my YouTube and it came through for me, but all this doesn't happen during our forefathers time, they have to make do with what they have and knowledge in those years are limited not in this Generation that knowledge is becoming wider every day.

As a make-up artist, there are some things I would search for online, I have some role models online and I follow their processes, watch their videos, and use that to improve myself, though it may not be one hundred percent accurate, the ideas keep me growing with the help of the knowledge acquired from them online instead of paying for the knowledge physically.

Now we can learn different skills online without leaving the comfort of our home, all this is possible in our generation, this is the opportunity we are having that is different from our forefathers, they do travel to another village to acquire such knowledge in their generation but now life is easy for us, knowledge is cheap but most people are still suffering because of laziness.

IS EASY ACCESS A BLESSING?We are blessed to have easy access to free knowledge in our era, this is huge and it has been saving many from abject poverty. This is my response to today's episode of hivelearners community prompt of #hl-w150e02 which the topic is tagged

I've been on vacation my dear 😃
Good to be back again.

I think that it is great that we can learn anything we need to learn online. However, I think we should not be complacent about learning as it is it just as important to actually do what we have learned so that the lesson becomes more internalized. I think we actually learn more from doing than from just seeing it. Therefore it's important to take that online lesson and practice it.

Of course it is true that we are getting things much easier but still we see that there are some people who are not interested in studies now they do not understand how much study is important for us time. After passing, they must realize that now we can do our complete study through our mobile.
