Driven by the insatiable desire of the fast tract education system, the new Intel I-2000 could not arrive at a more opportune time. AMC Technology new pro-tech device has brought comfort to students all over the world with its unique assortments of features that makes communication easier and more efficient. Since its launch in 2011, the I-2000, with its 5G network, has sold over 6 millions units. Colleges and schools around the world are using this device as a teaching resource where students can send papers and information directly to their professors.
The I-2000 has been rated one of the country’s most reliable mobile devices by marketer and students alike. It is flexible and durable, holding up to 32 gigabits of storage space. Spell check, dictionary search, picture inserts, spreadsheets, and a full word program are some of the mundane features. This 4.5”x 2.0”x 0.6” device carries advance apps such IntuiThought, a program that translate a person thoughts into words, DisectYou, which names your organ when pointed to, and ConductCharge, where the battery automatically charges by heat transfer from the palm of your hand. Best of all, the information these features produce are transmittable in IM, which proves this machine versatility and effectiveness. With this device students could earn a bachelors degree in six (6) months, a masters in an additional month, and any other advanced degree in another 2 weeks.
Ivy League Colleges in the US are now using the I-2000 to facilitate in the completion of their curriculum, especially for students in the Business, Science, and Teaching fields. The I-2000 is included in the registration package, thus making it less expensive as oppose to purchasing it at a retailer.
We spoke with some of the students from a few of these schools to get their views on this device and how it has impacted their lives. “The device is awesome; it is easy to use and you can carry it anywhere without the hassle of chargers and other accessories. It makes communication between my professor and me easier, and I feel comfortable relaying information to her,” said one Howard University student.
Carlen Shaw, Dean at Denver University, says she is impressed with the device and how it has improved the academic level of the students. “I was somewhat disturbed at first when I heard that we were going to start using IM to communicate in the classrooms. However after a few months into the semester I started to see how comfortable the students were in working with this piece of technology, and now I support it to the fullest,” she exclaimed, with a bit of excitement. When asked to share just how this new technology has improved the academic level of students, Shaw said, “The students are used to communicating with their friends in IM daily; however, now they get to break the wall of commutation between them and their professors. They can now communicate with their professors in IM too. Not only that, but they can do their course work in IM and easily send it to their professor.”
“My classes are now vibrant; the students are more involved in discussion, and now that they can give their response in IM, class communication is more comfortable,” said Professor Jessica Kerry.
The hallways of the New Hipster College are decorated with pleasant thoughts like “AS 2B DB (Always strive to be the best), 14AA41 (One for all, all for one), AFPOE WET (A fresh pair of eye works every time).”
“Our ECE Dept (Early Childhood Education Departments) has been doing some great work with this new system. Just yesterday I received a story from one of my students and I was just amazed at the way she constructed her sentences. For example, ‘Kenny lol whn his bff Jenny fll in d pudle f wtr whl wlking ome fr sch.’ Her story went on in this same manner, with most of the sentences fully written in IM. Now who would have thought that writing in Instant Messaging could be so fun and still be informative,” said Professors P. James of the Nacalva Teachers College.
According to other instructors, IM writing has helped the students to express their thoughts more and as a result we are getting more assignments done on time. Professor Kennedy of the Business Department
Though this new technology has proven to be helpful in the educational system, many citizens and concern parents are leery about how this can affect their young children lives. “Pretty soon this technology will be imparted on elementary and high school children. What will we do then? Is it that our children will no longer speak English and change their language completely to IM?” Asked parent Jackie Webster.
According to Anthropologist Mike Henry, “if continued, this language barrier will eventually spread throughout the world, causing communication to change between families. Because technology has evolved in such a way that we can no longer predestine what will come next, then it maybe that in the next twenty years or less IM will become the worlds Universal Language.”
Reporter John Becker spoke with Education Secretary Loenardo Jones about his take on this new device. “Well this is just a peek at what technology has in store for us,” said Secretary Jones. “I am pleased with the success this device has brought us so far. Just last week I attended the graduation of the first batch of teachers from The Technocrat Teachers’ College who have benefited from this device and I was overjoyed to share in their success. I now await the result of their teaching career and how well our high school and elementary students adapt to this teaching.”
According to Scientist Herbert Daley, “we have become so dependent on technology that we fail to see its interference with the way we communicate. We see these changes as a development and improvement to society; however we are oblivious to the danger that lies ahead, should there be major failure, be it short-term or long-term.
