There are four general educational lenses,they are social science,natural science,history and also the humanities.

A) Now the technology is influencing our life in a very lively manner and the technology also made many changes in the people culture and lifestyle,this is because an external energy in the form of technology the people culture is influenced.

The new changes in the technology or the evolution in the technology also make a change or evolution in the culture of people and in the older days the evolution was happened slowly and gradually but now the technology improvement is very faster because people needs are increasing day by day in a large value and the technology makes our daily jobs more and more easier and also the technology development also depends on current environment of our society.

B) -- The technology has many positive sides like,

-- It has made a good change in communication, that means in the older days the only way of long communication was letters but now the new communication mode like mobile phone,telephone and emails had came so now it is very easy to communicate with our family and friends.

-- It also effects the education field very badly that means now the students are not ready to at least think or search about any information that they need to know and now they have the opportunity to google any doubts and that is decreasing the critical thinking ability in the children.

-- Nowadays all the children even the adults are in front of laptops and mobiles for a large number of hours which reduces the physical strength of these people due to the lack of exercise.

C) Due to the technology our personal and professional identity is fully changed or we became a person who has no unique identity in the society.and all our activities like getting knowledge,,job and studies are under control of technology .

All the communication technology and other networking technologies had reduced our role in the society and all our life activities has been limited to a single room or laptop or mobile phone.It also reduces the close relationships with our neighbors and friends.

So we can say that the technology had changed our identity a lot.And also in an overall look the technology made our day to day responsibilities more easy to do.
