Is today's technology helping students or hurting them? In "A Vision of Students Today", created by Michael Wesch in collaboration with 200 students from Kansas State University, Wesch has his students take a small quiz that show how much time they spend on the computer, sleeping, on the phone ect.
Many times students may be caught with cell phones, I-pods, computers and calculators during class. These devices, while used during class when not supposed to be, are very distracting. They take away from the learning environment and cause students with great grades to achieve less then expected grades. Cell phones, I-pods, computers and calculators can help though.
The technology of 2010 is very downgrading to some people and very upgrading to others. Personally I think technology helps out very much. With out technology, i would have a computer, so i wouldn't be able to type this paper.
