Modern Gadgets. According to a dictionary definition, “A gadget is a small tool or device that has a specific useful purpose and function. Gadgets tend to be more unusual or cleverly designed than normal technology.” In today’s life, we try to maximize our tasks within an allotted time. With the use of modern gadgets, it is possible to accomplish our daily tasks and we are also able to do our work with efficiency. We cannot even dare to imagine our life without smart phones, cell phones, laptops, tablets, iPods and so on (Tech Crates, 2012). Today’s gadgets are one of the ways we can make our life more comfortable and easier. Similarly, Shy (2010) says that no one can deny the fact that gadgets have not only simplified our lives but also made them more comfortable and luxurious. Indeed, these gadgets really made a huge impact in our lives and became part of it.
Functions of Gadgets. The usual functions of gadgets can be grouped into three categories. Gadgets are used as a learning tool (e.g., E-books, SmartBoards, Wikipedia, Google, online dictionaries and notebooks), communication tool (e.g., SMS, PMS, call, chat, video message), and recreation tool (e.g., playing games, listening to music, watching movies or videos, taking pictures). In reality, technology is often blamed for shortening the attention span of students and distracting them from their studies.
