A Reaction Paper to the group report

Reaction Paper to Group Presentation

Group 5: Computer

        At the beginning, when choosing a sundry topic per group, personally I really first thought of computers is the easiest among the five. Only to figure out that it was not that easy to construct a game, a presentation and a debate all about computers.

I do believe that prepared mind is favored by chances.  In our case we really didn't have the chance to prepare and organize orderly our presentation as a group. Though we were the last group to report, having the longest time to think hard and prepare but I guess we really did miss to cooperate and work as a group.  

In our presentation, we role play a TV show in wherein a computer analyst was interviewed for her exhibit of the different computers. In the exhibit, it showed the generation scheme of the development of this powerful programmed machine. Even though, the said presentation was kind of boring and not that entertaining but the content of the history of mathematics was laid.

In our debate, we discussed about the negative and positive effects of the computer. The affirmative side believes that the computer has brought the users to some points of addiction, as cite of crime such as plagiarism, identity theft, cyber sex and libel. On the other hand, the negative side strongly believes that the computer had really been a great helpful and useful device to the entire world that has been using it now. Without it a lot of things could not be possibly done. This mathematical device that had only started to be used in calculations and researches had now a lot of variety it has to offer. It had gone variously in several purposes. One thing cannot be deny is that this machine that functions in many various ways had helped us in every possible way it can. Thus the computer had brought progress to the technological world. And the effects of computer only depend on the person behind the screen.

I can say that this device is one of the world’s renowned possession and discovery that the future generation  would always be thankful to the persons behind the innovation of the single chip to the complex computer we are using right now, and maybe in the future there could be more to that.
