My
Online Life
I am a digital immigrant according to Prensky in his
articles classification because I learned to use the internet from native
users. I did not grow up online. I do not remember that I used the Internet,
before I was 6 or 7 years old with its means, but with the beginning of my
university life began my use of the internet. The Internet for me became a
friend and assistant. I cannot pass on the hour without checking my email on my
Laptop, mobile, or doing research in Google for a quick answer to any personal
question that I have. The Internet has a significant impact on making the world
into a small village; it is always easy to contact my family and my friends. It
helps me in my studies using the search function to find answers to what is
difficult to understand and to find a more simplified explanation than the
professor or books approach. The Internet has also become a recreational way
for me to spend free time in watching movies, listening to music, and also reading
the news. The Internet is a big part of my life, and I cannot imagine my life
without it.

To what extent are your observations and
experiences consistent with those made in the article and the two
documentaries?
Technology and the Internet have made our life very
easy. The internet allows us to connect
different people in different ways, all over the world. Also, by our lap top, and cell phone, we can get all the
information from where ever we are. It has made to obtain information on any
topic in our school or university experience much easier. Through, the internet
we can get the direction, play games, buy movie ticket before go to the cinema,
book flight, reservation hotel, buy books, clothes, electronics……..etc.,
we cannot deny that although the Internet if has positive aspects it also has
negative aspects. Number of parents disturbing spend their children long of
hours front of a computer screen without spend their free time with them. Another
negative aspect is that using the internet for too long can hurt ones sight. So
parents must be determining the number of hours their children's use of
internet, to reduce the damage of negative aspects on their children's. Finally one of the downsides, is people loss the
actual of face to face communication with others, such as when the family or
friends meeting each of them using his or her smart phone or own laptop. They
do not care about what is happening around there.
