This article really breaks down the amount of time a typical teenager spends online. With the multitude of devices out there that are at arms reach for teens of today, it's no mystery why. Studies show that a large majority of teens today are able to access the internet. This study also seems to break down internet use by gender, type of device, and even type of apps that are mostly used by teens today. These numbers seem to amaze me. I know I probably shouldn't be surprised, however just seeing those percentages and the amount of technology that is being used by teens today is mind-boggling. With technology advancing at an extremely fast rate, I can only foresee that these numbers are only going to continue to climb the more technology evolves.
It is pretty mind-boggling just how much time we spend online as people, let alone how much time students spend! It's pretty crazy. I hope we "get over" technology and realize it's the people in front of us who are the most important....
