On one side it is the achievement of the society that students have the availability of computers, laptops and tablets with them every time whenever they are in need of it. The basic purpose is to make use of these things to take notes, use it for important researches and other similar use like for presentations and other assignments during study in the middle of class. During lecture hours students make use of this modern technology to acquire things faster, better and more precisely than ever before. But, the fact is student is making wrong use of it and majority of the students who carry laptops, smartphone, tablets etc to class are often noticed browsing Facebook. It is one of the unfortunate truths that have to be accepted by both students and professors to figure out any remedy for it.

This is a disastrous practice for both teacher and students, no doubt student’s claims that they are browsing information but in reality they are cheating their own-self. Let suppose if you are a professor and half of the students in class are busy on facebook chatting with friends, family and are enjoying latest photos and comments then how you feel at that movement and how you can claim that you are teaching them. It is completely impossible to teach them the course in depth when majority of them are indulged in social networking.

If you are among one such student then you are seriously hurting yourself by logging inn facebook rather than concentrating on your lecture. Facebook is such an addiction that it capture your intentions entirely and making you busy in updating status and commenting unnecessarily. Student may feel it something old fashioned to advice them to sit with full concentration in class and listen your professor carefully but it holds the truth.

It is the duty of professors to banned tablets, laptops and smartphones to institutes and practices this rule strictly and makes it clear to all the student of all grades that they have the permission of these gadgets only when they are literally in need of it. Being a student it’s our moral duty to avoid all such activities in the class which may deviate our attention from studies to other areas. It is for your benefit and future that your professors are not allowing you for social networking within class. Once you are off from study hours you have the liberty to browse facebook, twitter or whatever sites you wants.

At first it might be difficult to remain unconnected from social updates for such a long time but with the passage of time you will develop stronger level of attention and it will definitely bring a great change in your grades and entire future.

It is a well known saying that time is money. Money is considered very important and valued now a day. The proverb describes that time is as precious as money. I would rather say that time is even more precious and valuable then money.

Time once gone never comes back. Many people do not understand the value of time. People waste time, they only realize the value of time when its gone. Ask the value of one week from an editor of a news paper. Ask the value of one hour from a student who is waiting for exam. Ask the value of one second from that person who had just avoided an accident.

Most people are of the view that if they have money they have every thing. They are the people who live in fantasies. In real life money is not every thing. You can not purchase happiness from money. You can not buy health from money when you know that your disease can not be cured. Most important of all you can not purchase life from money. Sometimes it does happen that a dear one is dying despite you have your bank accounts full, you are helpless. This is what we call nature. You can not alter the decisions of nature with money. You can not buy time from nature.

Money is important in life but it does not mean that if you do not have it you don’t have right to live. Money is important to fulfill the needs of life. Many people think that a person is rich enough he is the luckiest person of the world. If look practically the statement can be modified as if a person has health and happiness then he is the richest person in the world. One needs money to fulfill needs of his family, like food, shelter etc. For a contented life health and happiness are far more important then having loads of money. What’s the use of that money or expensive things due to which you can not sleep whole night, just because of the fear of robbery or stealth.

Everybody is trying to make his tomorrow better, trying to earn more and more money. But what happens if he dies before tomorrow. Do not rush after money that you even forget to enjoy small precious moments of your life. You can use time in making money but you can not purchase time using money.

I am not denying from the fact that money is important for good life. But if money and time are in comparison for importance then surely time is more valuable then money.
