Internet and Concentration; school work, in specific

Back when I was in high school, the internet was just becoming popular. I think by my senior year, I was doing a lot on-line (but nothing to compared to now). But thankfully I had it pretty easy my final year in grade school and didn't have much homework (either that or I always finished it in study hall). I can't imagine how it must be like for kids in elementary and junior high school nowadays to concentrate on their school work instead of playing on the computer.

When it came to college, sometimes it became very hard for me to concentrate on my school work while being on-line. There were times when I would try just to check the certain websites that I usually check for a few minutes and then go back to my school work. But that didn't always happen. I'd procrastinate often and end up spending too much time on-line. But when all else failed, I usually got the work I needed to get done completed in time for class.

So how do you think the internet would affect you if you were younger and back in grade school? How does the internet affect you in your life now?

I'd have to say no to that as the school I was at didn't have it :(

I'm glad the internet was only just taking off late in high school for me. Nowadays half the assignments I do in college either have to be turned in online or done online altogether. I don't know how I would've dealt with that in highschool when I was waaay less mature and a bigger procrastinator than I am now.
