    In 21 century, technology is become advanced and necessary. All kinds of technology are around us. It is good to let us use some technology in class, like iPad or e-book, because we don't need to take a lot of stuff to school. We can just use the electronic thing to use in class, because it will not give the student a lot of heavy books. When they are doing the homework, they just need to do and turn in with electronic device instead of writing a lot.
   
    But there is still has some disadvantage of student use electronic device in class. Some of the students cannot control their mind, they said they are reading, but they always do other things that is not about the class in the device. Like they play games, watch videos, read novel and so on. Student will spend a lot of time in it, and they will get a bad grade on test. But the teacher have no way to know that what they are doing, so the teacher cannot help them, and the parents will get very mad from the teacher that their kids get bad grades.
   
    Anyway, I still want that we can use electronic device in class, I can do translate or scarch the information in class, we just need to control our mind that don't indulge on games or anything. This will always improve my grade.

Different and Same Between Hornbook and Kindle

    There is a lot of different between Hornbook and Kindle. Hornbook's screen is made with paper. Kindle's screen is made with high-technology. Hornbook is made with wood, but Kindle is made with plastic. Hornbook is just for young kid to study English, Kindle is for any kind of people, and you can download any kinds of newspaper or magazine.

But they still have the same characteristic. They are both for studying, and they are good for people.

The History Of Hornbook and Kindle

Hornbook
Hornbook is a book that is for the school children to study in the Mid-15th century. It made of  a wooden paddle with lessons tacked on and covered by a piece of a transparent horn. They always make the hornbook with ivory, various metals, leather and cardboard. 
The Hornbook is very rudimentary. It just has the alphabet in both capital and small letters, the vowels, and samples of syllable sounds. The consonants were include sometimes.

Kindle
Now is 21 century, economic and technological advanced. We use a lot of ebook or pad instead notebook, such as iPad, Kindle, Nexus and so on. I biased in favor of using Kindle.
AmazonKindle is a verygood ebook for people to study. It opening up a more obscure field of portable electronics to mainstream consumers. You can download all kinds of books, like bestseller ebook or newspaper from the Amazon online bookstore. This is much easier to study. And Kindle have a perfect screen. The screen is also a joy to view with its easy to read text.
