In today’s world, all the aspects of life are connected with computer technology. Data processing machines are widespread in education, science, entertainment and various services. Lately computers have filled the life. Computers, in genewral, have many benefits as they help modern cities to function, above all, make the most sophisticated tasks simple. Furthermore, data processing devices help people to find any kind of information they want through the Internet just in a minute. That’s why with the help of technology resources students can learn material efficiently, more quickly and cooperatively.

Information technology replaces traditional ways of working.

1. Interactive studying becomes more and more common among youth. It gives the material to students ahead of the class for pre-learning. This studying technique uses a great amount of handouts for scanning of the information.
2. Digital libraries and electronic dictionaries are very effective way to get the access to a lot of world networks. They are useful if you are involved in research work. Such activity forms the skills of selecting appropriate and correct texts through the Internet searching engines.
3. A variety of educational tools makes the process of studying more quickly. Audio and video materials help to perceive information efficiently, giving answers in many incomprehensible points. Electronic devices can calculate and analyze information faster and more precise than people. Compared with typewriters while we are using computers we should not worry about making typewriting mistakes as special tools can easily avoid them. Therefore, it keeps the time and gives the relief of making researches in a comfort of a house.
4. Furthermore, technology increases ability to work cooperatively. Working in teams is probably an inevitable experience, even for those who prefer to work alone. There are always student teams, task forces which demand working together. Computer presentations and projects generate positive synergy through coordinated efforts. This kind of collaboration motivates a desire to lead someone and be the most creative and smart among others. Consequently, computer is an integral device for improving skills, such as creative thinking.

Although technology devices are helpful and necessary for students, there are also some negative points. The quality of given data sometimes can be not quite good. It can contain unchecked facts, inauthentic international facts and documents. Therefore, students lose the art of filtering essential information. They rely on searching system instead of putting an effort to look through the books. Although computers provided students with innumerous studying tools and access to scientific material nearby or abroad, there are negative effects that lead to flatness of mind.

To sum up, we can state that modern technology made great changes in the youth life for better. Computer devices become an integral part of living, making studying easier and absorbing. Students have got used to them and cannot imagine the present standard of living without this miracle -machine.
