How Technology affects me a student?

Effect of technology on me as a student seems like a mixed blessing. In one bit, it is quite good. I talk to my friends and family, even those overseas, even if they exist. Online social networks and video calling enable us to communicate at a distance, making us feel not that distanced. Besides, when I want to learn something for school, my number one resource is the internet. I am able to find investigations into anything one can think of and then I watch tutorials or even take online classes. It is just like holding the biggest library in the world right in my hands. On the one hand, while there are cases whereby I feel more connected to my phone than to the people right in front of me. I notice that my friends and I spend too much time with screens on all the time-even if we are together. While surrounded by too many people, I always feel lonely. There are also concerns about privacy. It seems that every corporation and website wants to collect data about me, but I have no idea where all that information really goes. Honestly, keeping up with everything online is quite stressful. It’s all about the context of notifications and the “perfect” life that one has to keep up on the internet. In some ways, though, technology makes my life a lot more convenient and connected, but at the same time, it has its share of problems.
