The rapid technological developments since the 1970s have contributed to fundamental changes in the way of life for modern society. The educational system has not yet produced an effective answer to enable pupils as well as adults to cope with many issues such as ethics, privacy, values and morals in daily life. Sophisticated technology sometimes promotes anxiety, alienation, as well as uncertainty for those not expert with IT. The aims of the book are to present readers with alternatives which enable pupils and adults to rise to the challenges of the social impacts and implications of the use of information technology and to come to terms with the latent threats of modern technology to their social well-being.
