What happened to "My dog ate my homework!"?
Thursday, April 06, 2006 7:24 PM
I ran across this Blog about “Students & Technology in Canada”. MS Canada did a survey of students and some of the results are interesting.
 
  • 94 per cent of students say technology has improved doing research for school and work and 69 per cent say it’s improved maintaining relationships
  • 43 per cent of respondents have downloaded music illegally; 40 per cent say they do it often
  • The most common excuse used by students for not doing their homework is “my printer ran out of ink” at 85 per cent; ”my hard drive crashed” came in second for females at 30 per cent, whereas 28 per cent of males used the “virus” excuse next most often
  • 43 per cent of respondents agreed that technology has improved their awareness of world events
  • Almost 13 per cent have downloaded pornography; 22 per cent say they do it often
 
 
At least one of my teach friend has confirmed that he get has had the no ink in the printer before.
