This is a revised text of the paper published long ago; the text is reshaped, some things are added and some are left out. The paper puts forward a collection of features of contemporary world and life, and seeks optimal responses to the challenges this world brings about. We speak about noise and about the procedural nature of the life in technological world. We address issues of public discourse, manipulation, surveillance and freedom. Technology gives people great operative power; we question what impact may technology exert on morality and aesthetic experience, on aggressive behaviour and cooperation. The development and use of technology have been directed by socioeconomic system; we examine the issue of the shaping of such system, and point out what leaders and poets of this world should aim at.

This paper aimed at explaining the role of information technology (ICT) in building a better society that every human being will wish to live in. The paper has explicitly mentioned those societies that benefited from the role played by the ICT in ensuring such standards of living and be categorized as the global village, full of dreams and sustainability. These societies are the societies of Europe, America, and Asia; such as Dubai, Singapore, China, and India. These societies are using the information to ensure that their society is ideal. For instance, they used the information to prevent crime, provision of better medical facilities in most of their hospitals, ensure a good standard of living, good educational standards, and the rest. All these happened with the help of information technology. Furthermore, this paper has pinpointed that most aspects of human life were touched by information technology. Information technology has assured fewer privileged people social inclusion in many countries. It has also helped to change a teaching environment into one that is learner-centered. The teacher gives the students the authority to make decisions, plans, and other decisions since they are actively participating in the learning processes in ICT classrooms. Also, the nation's security can be considerably improved by learning from other nations' experiences and identifying internal information technology security concerns. ICT has also changed how many markets for intermediate and finished goods operate and the relationship between customers and suppliers across industries. Finally, the role of ICT in the provision of medical care is also evident in our contemporary society where we have the existence of MedTech departments in most of our hospitals for proper consultation between patients and doctors while living in different places.

This paper shows the survey conducted to actually unveil some possible effects that users of computer encountered, and the result analysis has shown a great significance in educational research and the study.

The development of modern information technology has changed the world around us, but also the world within us. The Internet has begun to shape our development, behavior, and social norms that can be interpreted through phenomena related to technology and human behavior in virtual reality taking place on the Internet. This means that technology has a huge impact on everyday human life. When we talk about modern technologies, we often think only of smartphones, the Internet and social media as the main factors that have significantly changed our lives, social relations, but also health. And often they pay attention only to their negative sides. With good reason, because negative side effects are not uncommon.
