“I can do things electronically now that
would have taken hours manually
before.”
“It’s just available! I can use it whenever I need
to.”
“So much easier to work with. It’s fast.”
“I’m not spending hours at the
printer.”
“I can do online tests and get immediate
information.”“How did we ever exist without this before?”…Melissa Burgess
LOVE the immediate feedback.
I am SO much more organized. LOVE
Evernote.
I am carrying much less in my backpack.
First week of school –I’ve done something
other than take notes in EVERY class.
Won’t we have to manage distractions @
college and jobs?
I can’t imagine
doing school without it
now.
