Surprisingly, not all college students spend all their time on Facebook and Twitter. But the do use all types of devices to help with research, presentations, and to enhance learning. 3 of 4 students say they wouldn’t be able to study without technology. With the growing presence of technology throughout all areas of a young person’s life, the amount of reliant education now on computers, mobile phones, and other digital devices was imminent. It has become a vital tool for education; however, it is important to steer clear of wasted hours spent on social networking sites.
