Tech Tip: Google Timer

For a tech tip this week I decided to try and set up a google timer. A lot of time I get so engrossed in studying that I forget to take a break, which has been proven to help retain more information. Short breaks are good while studying as it gives you a chance to stretch your legs, get a snack or something to drink or even check your social media or messages you missed while studying. If I play on being in the library for a long time I will set up a tomato timer on my phone. But sometimes that gets me distracted as I am then always checking my phone waiting for the break. The google timer is nice because you can play it right on your computer so you are never distracted by your phone while studying.
