1 How technology has improved communication in schools.

2 -The internet, e-mail, and Instant messaging programs are largely used by people around the world to communicate when they are not able to see the person they need to talk to. (i.e. MSN, Yahoo Messenger, AIM, e-mail services, text messaging, and etc.) -Though it is argued that these forms of communication take away some important face to face elements it is believed they are more helpful than harmful.

For example, if you are a business major many of the classes require you to have a laptop. Due to assignments and open laptop quizzes

4 -Using communications is a large part of keeping up on technology. -This PowerPoint presentation is a great example of online communication and the collaboration that occurred due to it. -Teams can send one another their files via e-mail or through a messaging programs. Then once one person has all of the files they can put them together and create the final product. If questions arise communications is just a phone call, click of the mouse, or a few taps of the keyboard away. An article written by James Morrison said that students are now entering a world that has 60 % of jobs that will require technological competency.
