Is technology causing me to to lose as much as I gain?

Technology now a days is a useful tool and also a requirement for college students. Homework and other projects are turned in through the internet on the AWC website. Having technology like this is useful, but also distracts you as you can get side tracked from doing your homework and projects. Technology is a really helpful tool to have in college because having a laptop and internet on your phone helps you look up information you need to help you complete assignments. At the same time these tools you posses can get you side tracked from completing your work. You may want to take a little break and look up other things or watch videos instead. Having phones in class will also make students get distracted as they decide to be on their phones and look at their emails, text messages, facebook, etc. instead of paying attention to the teacher.
