A .   W h a t   i s   t h e   u s e   o f   computers   i n   y o u r   day-to-day   a c t i v i t y ? The computer is a big part of my life. My phone serves as my alarm clock to wake me up first thing in the morning especially if I have a class to attend to. Then, my laptop helps me prepare, layout, and design my modules.

What do we mean by an ergonomically situated workstation? This is an example of an ergonomic workstation.      According to the picture above, no, my workstation is not ergonomic but I tried to adjust my things to be as ergonomic as possible. I only use a laptop, my table is approximately 15in x 15in so I don't have much space so I only put my laptop, pen holder and mouse in my table. And since using my laptop put pressure and stress over my neck, I placed it above a box that is 5 inches in height for it to be on my eye level. And then my chair is also not
