In the previous group discussion, my group chose the theme "Promoting healthy use of gadgets" the reason we chose this theme is because as we know today's gadgets are like basic human needs today. This is where gadgets also play an important role in all countries because gadgets make it easier for humans to exchange information, and assist in educational teaching materials, and others.

In the group discussion, we explain what gadgets are, the reasons why gadgets are important, the benefits of using gadgets, examples of using gadgets, and also some strategies for using gadgets to stay on a healthy path. I got a lot from this discussion, besides helping me improve my speaking skills, I got a lot of knowledge from this discussion on how to use gadgets properly and stay on a healthy path. And I can conclude from this discussion that gadgets are electronically simplified applications that can make work easier, this is strongly supported by the benefits that we can get by using gadgets. There are several benefits to using gadgets according to what I got in my group discussion :

1. Easy communication, because we can talk with distant relatives or pen pals through gadgets, because gadgets are equipped with applications such as Instagram, WhatsApp, and many more that make it easier for us to communicate only through the telephone screen.

2. Equipment for education, with gadgets we can access several sites to find additional information about the things that will be taught

3. Expand knowledge of the outside world

4. Gadgets make us more innovative and creative. Because technology is difficult, it stimulates the brain to work to its greatest potential. Starting a business used to be tough since you needed a lot of money and only had limited access to business information. Starting a business from home is now pretty straightforward as a result of the internet. In addition to that, as smartphones and tablets become more advanced, they will make it much easier for people to do their jobs from everywhere

5. Facilitate access to various information and technology

6. Entertainment media, because with gadgets we can also relieve stress because we can watch videos, music, play games, and other.

Those are some of the benefits of gadgets It can be concluded that the importance of gadgets today is because gadgets have become a basic human need where gadgets can exchange information quickly. This whole discussion helped me greatly because I got information and some strategies to use gadgets well. Apart from that, sometimes the existence of this discussion group is difficult because it is held via zoom. And this discussion, of course, helped me to practice speaking English and gain new knowledge.
