Are we addicted to our phones?

I think that not all students are addicted to their phones. Some students go on their phones they get easily distracted and they end up not doing their work. However there are also some students who go on their phones for school purposes. I feel that not all students are not addicted to their phones and that this isn't a problem because some student actually use it to get information or to learn something new.

How Has Technology Changed The Way We Do Things

Technology has changed many jobs, tasks and everyday activities we do. This is because the technology has advanced  and allowed us to do things much easier than before. For example, technology has now changed the way we communicate with others around the world. Back then we used post cards and it would take too long for the other person to read what message you sent them. But now we can easily communicate with other people around the world using our phones. Another example is how we used to walk or ride horses to get to places. But with the advancement of technology we have fast cars which we drive to get to different places. Not only that, the cars now can drive itself and don't need any fuel to work. Another example is how we get our information. Back then we use to go to library to read books and find out what we want to find out. But now we can search it up on google using our phones and it will come up with the answers we needed to know. These are just a few examples on how technology has improved things in our everyday lives.





Here are 20 examples on how technology changed the way we do things.

INTRODUCTION

Hi I'm Danne and in DTE we have started our progress into making our video game. Each groups have three memebrs. We are allowed to make any game we want as long as it's not inappropriate. My team decided to make a geometry dash type of game. We had to research games like geometry dash and we took ideas from those games. We put our ideas on padlet and coggle.

Digital Learning Objective

REFLECTION 

I found padlet and coggle very helpful. Padlet was very simple and easy to use. Coggle on the other confused me at first, but as I used it more I got use to it and learnt how to use it properly. It became simple and easy to use. I also think my team did well on this project. We talked a lot and listed a lot of our ideas. Even when we first started we already had a lot of ideas and right away we knew what game we were going to make. Overall I think my group did well and we had pretty good success on planning our game. I think we will succeed on making this game.
