Text 1 Technology:
A Blessing or a Curse During the Audit?
The pace of technology change continues to move at what seems to be nearly the speed
of light and shows no real signs of slowing down. What is considered a new technology
today is old technology tomorrow. In contrast to the speed of change in technology,
13
www.pontodosconcursos.com.br | Prof. Gabriela Knoblauch
consider the speed of change in the audit world. Unfortunately, audit processes and
approaches have not changed in what seems to be light years.
Many firms jumped on the technology bandwagon over the past several years but
frequently question their return on investment through enhanced efficiency and
improved audit effectiveness. Bill Gates is quoted at stating, The first rule of any
technology used in a business is that automation applied to an efficient operation will
magnify the efficiency. The second is that automation applied to an inefficient operation
will magnify the inefficiency. Unfortunately, many firms unknowingly followed Mr.
Gates second rule and have applied technology to inefficient processes. The end result
has been minimal improvement in efficiency and effectiveness, at best. While many
firms wanted their technology investment to be a blessing, it just hasnt turned out that
way. The good news is that it is not too late. You can turn the tide and have technology
utilization become a tremendous asset in your audit process.

When it comes to the pressure of successfully identifying, anticipating and dealing with
risks, few auditors shoulder as much burden as those who work with the government.
As the Institute of Internal Auditors' Richard Chambers wrote in his recent blog, these
professionals deal with career-threatening political risks on a daily basis that many
private sector auditors could never comprehend.
Internal auditors play a pivotal role in the relationship between the government and
citizens. It's up to auditors to set the appropriate controls to manage federal programs
and also to provide insight into the effectiveness and the soundness of the government's
inner workings. Put simply, auditors are key to ensuring the public's trust in their
government is well-founded and not abused.

Attitudes to technology
Many people are afraid of new technology, and, with the increasing presence of the
Internet and computers, the term technophobe has appeared to refer to those of us
who might be wary of these new
25
www.pontodosconcursos.com.br | Prof. Gabriela Knoblauch
05 developments. More recently, the term digital native has been invented to refer to
someone who grows up using technology, and who therefore feels comfortable and
confident with it typically todays children. Their parents, on the other hand, tend to
be digital immigrants, who have come late to the world of technology, if at all.
10 In many cases, teachers are the digital immigrants and our younger students are the
digital natives.
What about you? How confident do you feel about using the Internet and computers?
Although there is a tendency to call computer users either technophobes or
technogeeks (a term for a technology
15 enthusiast), the truth is that most of us probably fall somewhere between the two
extremes.
Technology and young learners
Modern technologies are very powerful because they rely on one of the most powerful
genetic biases we have the preference for
20 visually presented information. Television, movies, videos, and most computer programs
are very visually oriented and therefore attract and maintain the attention of young
children.
The problem with this is that many of the modern technologies are very passive. Because
of this they do not provide children with the
25 quality and quantity of crucial emotional, social, cognitive, or physical experiences they
require when they are young.
On the other hand, there are many positive qualities to modern technologies. The
technologies that benefit young children the greatest are those that are interactive and
allow the child to develop 30 their curiosity, problem solving and independent thinking skills.
Computers allow interaction. Children can control the pace and activity and make things
happen on computers. They can also repeat an activity again and again if they choose.
In practice, computers supplement and do not replace highly valued early childhood
35 activities and materials, such as art, blocks, sand, water, books, exploration with writing
materials, and dramatic play. Research indicates that computers can be used in
developmentally appropriate ways beneficial to children and also can be misused, just
as any tool can. Developmentally appropriate software offers opportunities for
40 collaborative play, learning, and creation. Educators must use professional judgment in
evaluating and using this learning tool appropriately, applying the same criteria they
would to any other learning tool or experience.
Char Soucy (a primary school teacher) mentions: "Reading books,
26
www.pontodosconcursos.com.br | Prof. Gabriela Knoblauch
45 handling real books, learning to take care of books, turning pages, and interacting with
human beings about literature are still vital for learning to read." There are electronic
books, but they are really not the same thing as real books. There must be a balance
between the two. Computers are highly motivating to today's students, who come
50 to school with plenty of visual stimulation from TV, video games, and other technological
sources, but it is not a good idea to go all electronic or to let technology replace what
teachers have done for a long time with learning how to read or write.

Char Soucy (a primary school teacher) mentions: "Reading books,
45 handling real books, learning to take care of books, turning pages, and interacting with
human beings about literature are still vital for learning to read." There are electronic
books, but they are really not the same thing as real books. There must be a balance
between the two. Computers are highly motivating to today's students, who come
50 to school with plenty of visual stimulation from TV, video games, and other technological
sources, but it is not a good idea to go all electronic or to let technology replace what
teachers have done for a long time with learning how to read or write.
Char Soucy (uma professora de escola primria) menciona: "Ler livros, manipular livros
de verdade, aprender a cuidar de livros, virar as pginas, e interagir com seres humanos
sobre a literatura ainda so vitais para aprender a ler." H livros eletrnicos, mas eles
no so realmente a mesma coisa que livros reais. Deve haver um equilbrio entre os
dois. Os computadores so altamente motivadores para os estudantes de hoje, que vm

para a escola com muita estimulao visual de TV, videogames, e outras fontes
tecnolgicas, mas no uma boa ideia tornar tudo eletrnico ou deixar que a tecnologia
substitua o que os professores tm feito por um muito tempo para os alunos
aprenderem a ler ou escrever.
