Computers in School
I think it is essential for students to have access to computers in school. Especially high school and college. Computers provide us with the necessary tools to write a paper, research a topic, check email, relay important message, and the list goes on. With the advancement of technology it is crucial that students become computer literate. Computers skills learned in school will provide students with the basic but necessary skills that are required at some jobs. Some may argue that computers offer students the opportunity to look up unappropriate sites, or waist time on social websites. Although this is true, given a student who will use it for education purposes, the positives far outweigh the negatives.

The world is becoming so technologically advanced. If it weren’t for computers and the ability to book tickets online, who knows how long it would have taken us to book these tickets. Where did you learn how to use the computer for such activies? I learned in high school during computer classes and general use of computers for class assignments. You know, computers are essential to have in schools. They’re becoming an everyday tool required to function in the 21st century.
Great job, Jordian! You’ve done a really nice job revising your audience. I like how you bring up the importance of computers in relation to your audience (booking tickets is an activity travel companions might talk about). I also think you do a great job transitioning to how this relates to computers in schools (which clearly might be difficult to do). Awesome work! Also, I like the new image at the top of your blog. That’s really beautiful (I hope you did recently change it and it’s not that I hadn’t noticed it until now).
I agree with you completely. Although, the use of computers for inappropriate things in high school is less of an issue than college because most servers are blocked in high school comptuers. Everything else is very true and without the technology of computers everyone would be lost as well as make a lot of things very hard.
