Topic: The future of mobile technology with reference to education and social life
"A ray of hope it is,
A hand with a belief of rise it is,
A gem called education we call it as"
My grandmother used to tell the stories of how in their generations they used to walk kilometers together to attend school and in all prospects, i feel that phase of life was in itself one of a kind, hmm!! but the time has passed on and with time things have changed by infinite folds and in many ways, it has done more good to this race of humanity and one such technological marvel is mobile and just imagine when one marvel gets in sync with another, the outcome and its effect would just be insurmountable and it wouldn't be wrong to say that this synchronization would be the greatest invention in the history of mankind.
On a serious note, the global community is under a threat of discrimination, radicalization, poverty, malnutrition, rising inflation, unemployment and even the nature is threatening with actions like melting glaciers etc and in this kind of a scenario, education is the only ray of hope, which can actually save this sinking ship of ours and we can actually alleviate all the sections and with the used of mobile technology and as i mentioned above, syncing it with education we can actually create a platform where in we can study, share and spread the light of education to any part of the world, be it the crumpling Sudan or be it the remote parts of India and also to the dabbawalas of fast paced Mumbai and how are we going to begin it? hahaha!! funny question, it has begun and it has grown big and its going to be very big in the coming years, be it Khan academy, which is based in USA, or be it the raging and trending Idea Internet Network or be it YOUTUBE, we the global community is going all out to help our society, especially the oppressed one to rise up and show to the rest, that education just and just needs will and passion and nothing else, i again want to repeat "NOTHING ELSE".
And to further widen this debate, how this mode of embracing education is different from the conventional classroom teaching is, this mode of mobile technology doesn't discriminate anybody, be it a disabled kid or one suffering from Alzheimer's disease or be it HIV affected child.
Using mobile technology, its indeed possible to increase the literacy rate of the remote parts of every country and i feel it would be a great coming together if United Nations( UNESCO) joins hands in this initiative and tries to create mobile schools, where we can directly take a high quality education from the best of the learning cradles like Harvard, MIT etc and into minds of the kids based in the mobile schools, it would end up becoming an Education Revolution. If we are able to give this kind of a beginning to these kids, i am sure the future of these little folks and also the whole global community would be in safe hands, but to actually unite mobile technology, education and the students, it would need a collective effort, be it the respective governments, the NGOs and especially the corporate giants, who can become part of this great initiative and include this as Corporate Social Responsibility and some have actually begun to shake hands with organisations, who are making this possible, Bill Gates, the pioneer of modern day technology, the richest individual and the greatest philanthropists the world has seen, he has allocated funds to KHAN ACADEMY to this great initiative.
All and all in order to save this humanity from all the social evils, we just need to make sure that the light of education is being bestowed to every growing child and its their right, we have the idea, we have the technology, we just need to take this to the next level and carve a community which lives in peace, which shares love and which stays away from hatred.
And as i have said in the above paragraph, if one needs to save this humanity, we must empower women and bestowing this light of education on them would be the best way to achieve it, by educating a girl child we can help them fight the taboos which this society of ours has put on them and as they say, if you are empowering a women, then you are empowering the family. We can actually create magic by the used of mobile technology, its indeed not an exaggeration thought, instead a possible dream when true, would bloomed this withered ROSE of humanity.
Haahah!! if mobile was a human being, then Nobel prize for "............. " hahah!! You know what i mean!! :D
