The You-Tube video Vision of a Student Today was a video clip that told you facts that portray the average students in college. The facts mostly told about how technology is so involved in the students’ lives but it is also over used and abused way too often.
This You- Tube video brought a very interesting question to me. It brought up the question that is technology used in the correctly in college? To tell you the truth I really don’t have an answer to that question. I think that technology is really great especially in classrooms. But I also believe, due to the video, that technology can be over used. But on the flip side how are you suppose to manage what the students are doing in the classroom. I mean your job in college is ultimately, to further the students readiness for the job world and those distractions are going to be out there when they are in the job force. Another thing that challenges my thinking was when it said there are things you are doing 26.5 hours so people have to be a multitasked. This made me think because it showed me how much I multitask. Like I am writing this blog post and listing to music. This kind of scared me about how develop my brain is to doing two different things at once. It also struck me that 2.5 hours of the day an average student is multitasking. That seems really high if you ask me, I mean I can see half an hour but two and half seems like a ton. Then I got to thinking is it different for different ages. I tried to look it up but couldn’t find information on the topic. This also struck me as odd because I thought since everyone is doing it someone would have put it on the internet by now
