In many classes, processes need to be learned and not just memorizing vocab or equations. Most assignments can't be looked up because they are too specific, opinionated, or require explanations in your own words. So even if students do go online for answers, they won't always get the answers they need. Also, students can use the internet to help them and learn something from if their teacher isn't doing their job.

I think we need to learn more than just the books in high school. Many students live on their own or away from their parents after high school. Preparing us to live in the real world will create more independent adults. Many simple life skills aren't so simple for some people. When I got a flat tire on the interstate, knowing how to change my tire might've made the turn around a little faster and less stressful.

I think technology has helped education. It has made information and research more accessible and easy to find. Students used to have to gather any or all information through books at the library, now we can look up anything wherever and whenever using the internet. Also, the technology used in communication nowadays has made it easier to connect with teachers, other peers, etc. The internet has connected the education community as a whole.
