In the spring, we put the clocks an hour ahead (spring forward) and in the fall, an hour back (fall back). It is simply the practice of advancing clocks so that evenings have more daylight and mornings have less (so you have more daylight hours to do things).
Our cell phones and computers change automatically, but it is a pain to change every other clock (from watches and alarm clocks to electronics and appliances). Thankfully, I only had to change one alarm clock.
