Tuesday, May 08

We started off the day doing another mental math quiz, and then we started working on our budget case studies #1-#5. They are all due by the end of the class tomorrow, and you have to show Mr. Max each of them separately so he knows that you have done them right.

Mr. Max brought up a good point in class. Are laptops useful in class or not? I can see peoples reasonings for both points. Laptops can be useful in class by taking notes especially if you have bad writing. Another reason why they might be useful is if you didn't understand something, so you could look it up without even needing to ask a teacher. Technology is so big now that not too many people don't own a computer.

A Reason why laptops may not be useful in class is because of the distraction. Many students play games on them, meaning they aren't listening to what the teacher is saying.

I can understand why some people may think differently about this topic, let me know your thoughts on this subject by commenting to this blog.
