integral for persons who are working every day since they can earn certificates and degrees
through online education. Moreover, even if someone must work full time and cannot attend
class in person, The video, Technology in the classroom -Ethan Dickson, April 2,2015 highlights
how technology can ease weight off one’s shoulder especially students. We learnt that we
use technology every day in our life and when technology is being limited it has a great impact
on us. The Poem, Classroom Technology by JLoftis94-2013, shows us a contrast between the life
