Today’s students have their
eyes stuck on the monitors of their computers, most especially on their phone
screens.
Because of the advancement in technological development, students have become too dependent on
these devices. But we all know that gadgets were actually made to make
education more convenient.
To prove my point, College
students can do away with the negative impact these widgets can inflict if they
make sure that these materials are not misused. Here are certain reasons why
technology can be beneficial and why you should use it to do well in your
college.
Through technology,
instruction and learning are made easily accessible
for the students. College students can view their course syllabus, probably
notes and other educational material online. They are open for viewing anytime
and anywhere for as long as the student has internet connection. They can even
use their very prominent smart phones for this.
Because of the smart phones,
you can also save notes and study reminders in a portable
item. Plus, with the fact that most of you students almost never forgets to
bring your phones, it will always be there for you to check on. Other than
that, while these data are stored in your mobiles, it can also be transferred.
A fast exchange of files between you and your
classmates can happen as well.
Disseminating information is
made extremely easy and quickly which one of the things you should take
advantage of with technology. Once you learn how to utilize these inventions
properly, you’d be surprised to know how much it would speed up your learning
process and information intake in the most enjoyable way possible. And you know
what that means? I smell gifts for a college graduate.
Now that you know what you
can do with your smart phones, equip it with these apps to up your hi-tech
learning experience. That way you won’t just be another one of the dumb kids
with a smart phone in pretty college graduation dresses and a hollow head.
Evernote
This app is like an extension of your brain. It stores
whatever input you encode in it, even snapshots of images you want. It is a
very portable reminder for you that allows you to synchronize the data with all
your other devices and also the internet. Moreover, the apps helps you become a
productive and organized person even in your professional life after college.
Studious
Similar to Evernote,
Studious can be used for note taking tasks and homework reminders. Besides
that, you can log in your class schedules and the application automatically
configures your phone to keep silent during class hours and reminds you of
approaching homework deadlines and test dates. With this app, you won’t miss a
thing.
Trello
Finally, we have Trello which allows the user to organize with group mates
on school projects. The app allows you to manage tasks and assign
responsibilities to members while keeping track of the progress. There you can
set deadlines and collaborate timetables which can instantly be updated when
changes are made all the while notifying the members.
These applications are very
much free to use so no need to worry. Education should be made fun, timeless,
and convenient!
