Undoubtedly, Internet connected devices play a significant role in people’s daily lives in many of the places where they work or play. Some people think that students should be prohibited from using Internet connected devices in class, while others do not. Both sides may have their own reasons to support their views. If I were asked to choose one, I would say that professors should let students use Internet connected devices in class. There are several reasons as follows.
To begin with, using Internet connected devices can improve people’s work performance. Internet connected machines are equipped with many functions that help people do work efficiently and accurately. When such functions are well used, it is likely to bring a better result in performance. For example, my youngest brother did poorly in university. He hardly understood the biology lecture and submitted his assignments late many times. However, he changed little by little after using smartphone with many education applications in his class. He realized that using this technology helps him complete his tasks faster with a high accuracy. With the help of research engines, he was able to access a wide range of latest information. Thanks to high quality smartphone, he started to raise his grades in university by completing his assignments on time. He was able to excel all throughout university and received straight A’s in his lecture. If he had not been able to use smartphone in class, he would have fallen behind.
In addition, using Internet connected devices enables people to relax and recharge their batteries. When they are recharged, they are likely to have more energy to put into working and being active. For example, my sister did poorly in high school. She got distracted easily, procrastinated, and acted on impulse. However, she changed little by little after spending 10 minutes playing mobile games during break in class. She realized that playing mobile games helped her recharge her batteries and refocus on her schoolwork, while studying without break could negatively affect her concentration. Thanks to the game she played during study breaks, she started to maintain a good behavior by raising her grades in school. She showed characteristics of a longer attention span, a stronger passion in her tasks, and a better ability to delay gratification. Without refreshing herself, she would have fallen behind.
All things considered, I strongly believe that professors should let students use Internet connected devices in class for the reasons I have mentioned above. All in all, the importance of utilizing digital devices in class cannot be overestimated in life. |
