An IPOD classroom?

Having an iPod classroom may not sound like a bad idea, but it does have some disadvantages to it. IPod is known as the best selling mp3 player, so meaning to say that alot of people have iPods. But many of these people who are using the iPod classroom, may say as an excuse that they can just skip the seminar class and say they can just simply record it and listen to it later. Any clues why it can be a disadvantage? Well think of it this way, you have alot of people buying these iPod players to listen to music but many of them can tend to be lazy so they use that same old excuse to listen to the seminar later. But also, they get carried away saying they wont fall behind and just tend to listen to music while recording in the seminar or some just don't prefer to listen to it as a classroom, some would prefer to listen to the iPod for music.

But it can also be viewed as an advantage, because it makes it very easier for the students to listen to the iPod classroom. Even if you missed out on what you heard, you can always rewind it and pick up what you missed because if you were to listen in a real seminar class, some teachers may never go back to what you missed out on. Even if you want a break for example, because of the many long hours of listening to the seminar, you can just pause it and just take a break and later go back to where you were.

With the GOOD, comes the BAD

Modern technology today, has some advantages and disadvantages. Examples of the modern technology we have now are: cell phones, Ipods, digital cameras, computers,and many more. All these things were designed to make all our lives easier and faster. Although, they do make our lives much easier, there are always some pros and cons about having all these things.

Examples are if you have a car, it gets you around from place to place and is very fast, but if you keep on driving it you don't get enough exercise and it pollutes the air. If you use cell phones, you can communicate and send messages with it but it costs a lot of money. Also, many cell phones today have a camera. This is good for taking pictures on the spot and sending them to whoever you want but this also costs a lot of money and takes up space on your phone. Ipods and mp3 players are good because you can take music with you and listen to it wherever you go, the bad thing about this is that people get addicted to their music and play the same song over and over again. This is very annoying for some people and if you play it loud enough, it can affect your hearing.

So, with all these pros and cons about modern technology today, we can say that with the good, comes the bad.
