can learn even if no one is teaching you. No matter where you are, no
matter what time it is, you can learn anything because we now have
technology that can teach us knowledge and give us ideas. These are
technologies like smartphones and computers. Through these devices, you

5. How do you imagine life as a student without technology especially in our

situation today?

It’s really hard to imagine being a student when you wake up in the
morning without technology. I’m sure you’re always late because your
smartphone alarm no longer exists. It’s really hard to imagine as a
student without technology, especially in our situation today. If there
are no vehicles/cars, you are going to walk to school, and what if your
house is far from school? I’m sure you are always tired and late. If
there were no vehicles or cars, traffic would be a nightmare with all
the traffic lights out. Without technology, it’s difficult to study well
if there’s no internet, no computers, and all the gadgets that we use
for research. If there’s no light, you can’t read well; if there are no
phones, there’s no communication from other relatives. And if there’s no
technology today, I’m sure there’s no solution for the viruses spread in
our country, a possibility that more positive cases and it affects the
school, no face-to-face classes, and I say that it’s really hard to be a
student without technology.
