I agree with Egan in that there are many examples in my life that support Egan's viewpoint. Throughout high school, I learned to depend less on teacher's teaching me, instead I learned how to self study material covered in class because sometimes the material is not taught in a way easy for me to comprehend. In addition, I have also become more independent in that I know longer rely on my parents or anyone else to keep track of my schedule or tasks, both are handle by my self now.
Attending Sycamore also allowed me to develop a wider range of interests. I was able to take the courses I wanted as well as choose the difficulty. I was able to take different types of courses some of which were interesting such as computer science and physics, and I also discovered courses that I dislike such as Spanish and chemistry.
For my research project, I have barley started writing as I've been searching for more sources that oppose the viewpoint of smartphones being helpful in education. I feel that having a good balance of sources between the two viewpoints is essential if I want to draw valid conclusions. Over the break, I'll most likely finish writing section 4 and if I have time, It will include a bulk of my sources as well as statistics. After that, I might search for more sources because you can never have too many. But overall, I will probably compare sources that support and oppose smartphones in the classroom, and using those sources I will conclude whether or not they are beneficial.
