About the Author
I am currently a student in the University of Texas at El Paso and as any other student I know technology plays a big role in it.
Since I enter to UTEP I saw many people with technological devices in their classrooms, in their free time, and even when they are walking from class to class. This issue made me curious about texting and about how much benefits or damage ourselves in our education and in other possible places or situations in our life. I find out by experience that texting in classes distract you attention from the professors and in some point you don’t understand what he is really saying.
So after my own experience with texting I wanted to know how many people experiences problems with texting and how much it damages our life. I find out that texting now is a really important issue and a very complicated to solve. But with the correct guide lines we can accomplish to use texting in necessary ways only.
When I got to choose a problem in my English class I right away choose texting for investigating more and advocate for a possible solution. I learned that texting really affect our way our life in our education, in our relatioships, and even is a threat to our life because texting and driving. I hope you read the information and change some texting habits you might have for your own benefit.
