All students procrastinate. I'm sure we all can acknowledge this fact in our generation. Most of us can admit that we done homework at 11:00, 12:00, and sometimes even pass 1:00 at night. This trend continues to grow and grow until we find ourselves doing this almost everyday. Other than extra curricular activities, technology is obviously one of the factors keeping us up all night. From social media to video games to just simple TV, technology occupies our time and continues to occupy even more time each time the latest iphone comes out. However, what will happen to homework when technology completely takes over a student's night?
The definition of procrastination is different for each student. The time homework is started is different for all students. What isn't different is how each student will probably do something relaxing before starting homework to relieve stress. This activity can involve technology. Often the time used for this activity is more than the student planned. As stress builds up throughout the year, students may want to spend more time "relieving stress," which means spending more time playing on a tablet. This can lead to procrastination, but the grip of technology is what really causes the trend. New products and trends force students to waste time and build a tolerance for little sleep each night. Little sleep means not so good grades. An effective way to end this trend would to cut technology completely out of the process but this would cause several students to go crazy. Time management could be an option, but are all students capable of going through the technology withdrawal?
In theory, technology will cause students to procrastinate even more by creating more distractions. Technology will just get better and more time consuming. Students will have even less time to sleep and grades will drop. Education will suffer if students do not learn how to avoid wasting time. If our parents were able to sleep at around 8:00 and our generation at 11:00 or 12:00, what time will the next generations sleep at. If we can't properly manage out time as students, how will the future of our generation and future generations turn out?
The future of students is bright. But it won't be in the future as the competition bar is going to be raised because of the lesser jobs and more talented people. I hope government will open more jobs in the future.
