Some people think that books should be stopped in schools and that videos, computers and films should be used instead. To what extent do you agree?

The system of learning in educational institution is changing and

this

has aroused some concerns about the conventional

method

of using books, which is believed to be stopped, while encouraging usage of e-learning methods. My opinion on
