Learning with personal electronic devices.

Hung: I'm preparing for a class discussion on personal electronic devices. Do you think smartphones, laptops and tablets are useful for learning?

Phong: Definitely. They're the modern devices that have changed the way we learn.

Hung: Oh, yeah? I think people use smartphones mostly for communication.

Phong: Sure, but smartphones can also be used to take photos or record students' work, which can be later shared with the class.

Hung: That's true. How about laptops?

Phong: Oh, they're excellent learning tools, too. You can store information, take notes, write essays and do calculations.

Lam: You can also access the Internet, download programmes, and information that can help you understand the material and widen your knowledge.

Phong: Right. My laptop, which is a present from my parents, is very useful. I use it for assignments and projects, and for studying English.

Hung: I see. How about tablets?

Phong: Well, a tablet or a tablet computer is a kind of mobile computer and...

Lam: ... it can be used to take notes with a digital pen on a touch screen. A tablet is also perfect for people whose work is to draw and write.

Phong: Yes. I agree. A tablet with WiFi has Internet access and is a great tool for looking up information.

Hung: Amazing! No wonder that so many people are using these devices.
