Tips For What To Do If Your Computer Breaks Down In College

By Darrel Jefferson


In the world of college students, computers, laptops, tablets, and technology in general has become so important that imagining college without access to these pieces of technology seems impossible. So what do you do if your computer fails you as a college student?

The common goal: get ahead in life. I'll touch on these topics as well, in case you never heard them before, but I'd rather devote most of my space towards experiencing an enjoyable and fulfilling college career.

Traditional classrooms allow for face-to-face interaction, social learning, and controlled time and space (which help students focus). Online classes allow for personal exploration, interactive media, and broadened spectrums. By combining the two, hybrid classes try to access the strengths of both forms of learning.

Take a wide variety of classes and do the best you can to understand your interests and goals. These are great tips and you will hear them from everyone. They are a sure way to get ahead in your career.

Many university libraries offer computers for on campus use. These computers have all of the programs necessary for college students. Specific schools within your university may also have computers for students to use, so feel free to look into computer labs in your department. These computers can be a life saver after computer crashes, so take advantage of it!

Another clear benefit of hybrid classes is their convenience. As students are able to access all important information online (at anytime from anywhere) their control over schoolwork increases and miscommunications/mistakes tend to decrease. Working from home can also be helpful for many students that have families or live far from campus.

Take as many enjoyable classes as your schedule allows. If your major includes electives, chose the ones that spark your interest, not just ones you hear are easy or scheduled most conveniently. If you have a couple credit hours take any class that seems interesting to you, no matter how relevant to your primary major or not. Learn a language, take an art class, take a music class, take an astronomy class, or join a club. Indulge your childhood dreams and have a little fun.

All classes from Business Administration to Event Planning to Programming can benefit from the unique advantages of the hybrid system. Hybrid classes allow the best of both in-class and online learning to work together for a well-rounded, impactful education!
