In a school there are many other people to consider as your team rather than just the people you work with closely on a daily basis. Knowing and executing your role as an individual to the best of your ability allows you to be a valued member of any team. It is also essential to know the roles of those around you. This allows you to fully understand and support each other. By working as a team you can gain valuable knowledge from those who are more experienced than you, but it also allows you to suggest newer and fresher ways to approach learning.
I believe that with the many technological advances that have been made throughout history computers have made life easier. I believe that computers have changed the world, as a lot of things can now be done through computers. A person can find a computer everywhere – at school, at work, and at home. A lot of a person’s daily activities either involve the use of or depend on information from a computer. I believe the educational environment is one of the most important places where the computer is placed.
Some of the most important skills I have learned are communication, time management, organization, and discipline. By watching the chain of command flow, I have learned how information travels and have learned communication skills. Strict rules on timeliness are highly enforced in the JROTC program. I have learned that being early leaves a better impression and is also more beneficial than arriving on time or late. These time management skills have already helped me and I know that they will continue to benefit me.
“The young may learn from their elders; and the old may learn from the young. To What extent and how is this true on Moses Aaron’s ‘Elijah Greenface’ and Clint Eastwood’s ‘Gran Torino’? Throughout the ages, it has always been that the young learn from the old through their knowledge and wisdom, but in the modern age this is not always so. This may be because of the technological advance handed to the newer generations, which has highly influenced a new way of living. Now it is the young leading the way, embracing and learning the benefits of the computer age, however the elderly can still guide the young, learning about life values and experiences.
This fact can be easily noticed when evaluating modern youths’ preoccupations, hobbies and behavior, as well as analyzing how they use leisure time, compared to their counterparts a century ago. Today’s teenagers use many types of technological gadgets, such as computers, TV sets, smartphones and tablets-both at school and home. They also seem to be studying with the help of technology. Actually, the latter now sometimes takes the place that had traditionally been left to parents and teachers. This refers not only to the teaching material, but also to social and communication skills.
These clubs and organizations help them make connections for the future. They can also be used on resumes to show that there is a balance between more than one given tasks. In being classified as a first year student the standard is set high. With the responsibilities set forth there is a lot to achieve. First year students are noted to be more mature than a freshman.
Nowadays technology is involved in everyone’s lives. People recur to technology for many reasons.

With the thriving of the computer industry, it breeds a new term- computer literacy, computer literacy is an understanding of the concepts, terminologies and operations that relate to general computer use. It is the essential knowledge needed to function independently with a computer. This functionality includes the ability to solve and avoid problems, adapt to new situations, keep information organized and communicate effectively with other computer literate people. (Computer Literacy USA 2007 cited in Helen Mele p1). And it seems that the computer literacy is very important which particularly effect contemporary young people’s mental development.
Some examples of different technology to increase education success are computers, audio players, smartphones ect. Computers these days can do just about anything you desire. They are used for education almost all the time for test taking, essays and research. Laptops are very convenient for students on the go and also gives the person full access to learn on the go. The use of audio is well known in education and has been used for decades.
• Adults enter any learning situation with an image of themselves as self-directing, responsible grown-ups. Trainers must help adults identify their needs and direct their own learning experience. • Adults come to a learning opportunity with a wealth of experience and a great deal to contribute. Trainers are successful when they identify ways to build on and make use of adults’ hard-earned experience. • Adults have a strong readiness to learn those things that help them cope with daily life effectively.
