An increasing number of schools provide tablets and laptop computers for students to use in school, replacing books and other printed materials like exams and assignments. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this trend?

Nowadays, many schools are providing students with laptops and tablets to use for their home works and exams

instead

of printed books and materials. Like any other use of technology,

this

way of usage has its advantages and disadvantages which will be discussed below.

one

advantage of using tablets and computer laptops is that they are easier for students.

This

is due to the fact that these students will not be obligated to carry heavy bags on their shoulders, on a daily basis, when attending school.

also

makes it easy for the student to access whatever he or she needs really quickly and without any effort.

For instance

, tablets and laptops are prone to viruses which can corrupt all the data stored in them. Not only that, but
