a vision of students today

i found out that it will take at least $3,000 to update the hard drives which are too slow to run many current programs also Two years ago a school librarian received a $15,000 grant that paid for many of the computers in the shared homework lab The rest however can be unreliable and can't be easily fixed when something goes wrong

class reflection

well so far i have learned how to use  a lot of different things such as igoogle, blogger, diigo, google, and more i really like the blogger, diigo it helps me learn how to use the computer a lot better now we are learning how to tell a fake web site from a real web site we are working in groups it sounds fun but really hard so i am going to get started on that

google alerts

i really like google alert because you can look up anything and you will get messages to your e-mail about what ever it was that you looked up and you can go though and read them also you can select ones that you like the best and move it to your home page i really like the alerts and it makes things easier to get to

what we have learned in class

well so far i have learned that computers are not all that bad and i learned about a few new e-mails which are great i really like diigo it has a lot of things you can do and it makes it easier to keep track of everything i also like the blogger because it is very simple we learned how to use blogger, i google, gmail, diigo , and more i am starting to like this class

i think that computers aren't all that bad wen you use them for the right things when you are playing games and watching youtube all the time yes i can see how it would be bad for you me personaly i am not very good with computers but i would love to have one that i can use all the time for homework and things i also think that some kids might really be becoming mentaly unstable but other then that i don't really have anything else to say besides technology is very handy and fast it makes things a lot easier depending on the use thanks
