4 Technologies Online Students must have

Many students say that having Ipads, and IPhones are useful in studies, but the university of Massachusetts came up with the top 4 useful gadgets. Number 1, is the printer in which students will be able to print their work and files in any format which could come from their phone or their computer. Another useful thing having a printer is that you can take it with you because sometimes you might not find any shop that is able to print the work for you. Number 2 tools for easy bibliographies, citation is always important because it shows where you got your information from and it allows teachers to check if you cheated or not. A good software that can cite your cite is easybib which creates citations for free which makes it really easy to work. Number 3 note taking software, this is also a useful software to have because it allows you to take notes in class without using any paper or pen. Soft wares like one note is very useful for college. Number 4 web cams and headsets, its more than a help device in school because it allows you to communicate with others easily by video chat. A good software can also help you contact with your family due skype which is free and easy to use.

I learned a lot of stuff about these 4 must have gadgets because every student in our school uses all of these stuff listed above. I think the most valuable gadget to have listed above is the printer and webcam because they are really awesome to have. The printer will allow you to print your stuff easily by not worry where can you print it. The webcam helps because it makes communication easy between people which I think is another good technology to have. I learned many stuff from this on how to use these gadgets when you go to a university you want.
