Technology in school, pro or con?

Technology has one of the fastest growing popularities in America and around the world. I woudn't be able to live in a world without T.V's and computers. Every household in America has some sort of technology that makes thier lives easier. Even my grandparents have some sort of technology that they use daily like a computer or a T.V. Technology has be used so much that some person thought of putting it in  schools and he was good for doing that. Over the past years people have been arguing if thier should be technology in schools and if it should be part of lessons that teach students how to type faster or make blogs like i am doing right now. I believe there should be technology involved in schools because you basically learning more by learning how to use a computer and how to use it's key features.
      Communication has also been affected by technology in some ways. for example, in the old days you would write a letter or go to that persons house to talk. But these days you rarely go over someone's house and you usely find yourself texting or calling some one. For example, when I asked my friend to come over so we could hang out, he said no. But when I asked him to text he said sure. Also, if a teacher announces you have to write a hand written essay, everyone screams and says they rather type. All I am trying to say is that technology has totally changed people talk and spend time with each other. Children now a days are basically learning more thatn before because they are learning about technology and about the topic the teacher is talking about. I hope that in the near future people will invent a newer way of sending hand written letters!
