There are always two sides to the story and two sides to an argument, no matter the topic. Technology and digital society makes no exception.
This could be a good, helpful thing because:
- It would make votes and data easier to collect, therefore we would know who is elected sooner.
- More people would be likely to vote since they no longer need to wait in lines outside of their home.
- Saves paper, time and money
- It would be harder to prove your identity, so those who are Canadian would find it more difficult to vote, and those who are not Canadian could try to manipulate their way into the polls.
- Excellent hackers could try to manipulate the data or the polls
- Slow internet connection and'or corrupt data could cause problems
- Those without internet would find it difficult to vote
Positive effects of this could be:
- Students could attend classes from any location
- Students who are sick could still attend classes and do their work
- It would save money and paper resources
- Teachers could work from home
- Hands-on learners would find it difficult to learn the work
- Teachers could find it harder to teach and explain the work
- Cafeteria, janitor and other staff members would be out of work
- Students who do have a computer of an easy access to internet would fail to attend classes
- Some students would see this as an easy opportunity to skip school
(Topic 1) "Our medical records should be all digitally stored online for all medical professionals to access within the hospital when needed."
This could be a great thing because:
- Medical files could be accessed from any hospital or clinic with internet access.
- It would save space, paper and money
- Files could be easily and quickly found
- Files could be lost or deleted
- Files could be hacked into or interfered with, which could be a danger to our privacy
- Slow internet access could cause a delay in an urgent situation
