Now, even if we misplace or damage a device we can easily access any other technological apparatus with the same information intact. Instead of being forced to sit on an uncomfortable chair surrounded by odours of colleagues or students perusing text, we can now relax at home on the couch, or fill in time on public transport, all whilst studying internationally valid educational information.
