Computers are being used more and more in education. Some people say that this is a positve trend, while others argue that this is leading to negative consequences. Discuss both views and give your opinion.
There is an ongoing debate on whether or not
computers
should be used in education. While some people
argue that using computers
in learning may be harmful, others believe that it is a positive development. This
essay will discuss both sides and present arguments to explain why I agree with the latter opinion.
On the one hand, there are those who believe that computers
should not be used in education because it can bring negative consequences. According to those people
, computers
can affect students
' attention. This
is because using computers
and the internet while having classes can make students
lose their focus. To illustrate, it is normal to see students
checking their social media during classes. In addition
, computers
have made students
lazier. The reasons for that is
because all the answers to the activities proposed are found on the internet and, as a result
, graduates are not trying to solve these problems anymore.
On the other hand
, some people
argue that using computers
for teaching is a positive development. In my opinion, electronic devices, such
as laptops and ebooks, have helped students
enormously during the learning process. For example
, it is possible to carry thousands of different books in a single device, which makes students
' life easier. Furthermore
, I believe that it is extremely important that graduates develop their computer skills. One of the main reasons for education is to prepare graduates for the job market. Therefore
, schools should not only use computers
to educate but also
teach some basic computers
skills.
To sum up, although
some people
argue that using computers
during the learning process is negative, I believe that it is crucial because those devices are part of the modern world and they can be a great tool for students
