Effects Of Gadgets On Students

The gadgets are very useful, they help us connect to each other, they make us learn new things and discover new things. As long as students don’t become fanatics when it comes to gadgets, we don’t think that they could have a bad influence or a bad effect on students.


The gadgets are state-of-the-art technologies that make our life better in many ways. Let’s take for example the cell phone, many of you are “lost” without it and when it comes to students this device is more than just a cell phone, is a chat opportunity, an Internet connection, a camera and more. Because mobile phones have today a lot of features and they are not just devices made for communication between people.






 




A negative effect of these gadgets on students can be the fact that they can become obsessive and the students can neglect everything else, like their social life, their family and friends. Is not a bad thing to have a computer, but is a bad thing to spend all your life in front of it pretending that everything else doesn’t exist.


Otherwise, most gadgets have positive effects because they enable us to do things faster and easier and they are also good when it comes to learning new things and, let’s face it, they make our life a lot easier.


In the list of the essential gadgets for students we have:


-  A laptop with the fast wireless internet connection enables the students to do their projects even if they are in a coffee bar, in a park or on the road. The best thing about laptops is the fact that they are portable and easy to carry. A desktop is also good, but they couldn’t bring it with them to class.


-  The next essential gadget is an iPod. This is a must have in a life of a student, because they can store all their music, pod-cats, videos and more. It is also a good companion on the road or everywhere else, if they get bored.




- A USB Thumb drive is also essential, because it a small and portable device where the students can store precious information and transmit it from a computer to another.


- The next gadget is perfect for recording class lectures and taking notes. This is a digital voice recorder called iTalk. This cool gadget plugs into the iPod headphone jack and after you record the lectures you can download them on your computer.


- A cell phone, because it lets you keep it touch with your family and friends. It doesn’t matter if it is an iPhone or other mobile phone.


- On our list are also: a book scanner if you don’t want to spend a lot of time at the library, you can scan the text you need and them read it on your computer; noise canceling headphone and a scientific calculator.

a feeling of a graduating student……

Everyone of us has their own feelings and for me it is a mix of sadness and a little bit excited. Excited because it’s the time for me to explore my talent and to test it with other people and different world. Sad because I will leave my high school days that full of happiness, sadness, and enjoyment. But to graduate is a part of everyone’s life. I will miss all my teachers that teach us and guide us; I will miss also my classmate and friends that never leave me in times of failures. I will treasure all the moments, sad or happy because it makes me brave and stand with my own.
In my high school I learned that if you make a mistake never do it again or don’t cross that wrong road again because mistakes are one of our inspirations. In my four years here in LVHS (Lupon Vocational High School) I learned how to make decisions and stand with it. Graduating is one of the big gift that be given to us after a long journey and problems we’ve encountered.
