This

essay will explain the benefits and drawbacks of applying

computers

in schools by looking at

first

how it can assist pupils to study and

then

discuss how it makes

students

lazier, while the writer’s opinion will be given at the end of the essay.

Computers

greatly help

students

to widen their insights. It enables access to many sources of knowledge since people around the world can share their ideas freely and easily.

Students

can study practically by watching Youtube videos posted by strangers.

For example

, I personally study English by utilizing my computer for going online watching Youtube where I am able to observe well how the natives are speaking, and

this

led to a significant improvement.

On the other hand

, some individuals believe that the use of

computers

in education is likely to lead

students

to have less motivation for learning. Giving huge access to information encourages them to take a given lesson by the teacher for granted as they do not try to think of the answers by themselves, but rely on Google’s answers.

Moreover

, the provided game on the computer highly distracts them to follow the class because they deem it more attractive.

For instance

, the reported research by BBC in 2020 revealed that 55% of

students

in Jakarta prefer to use their

computers

for playing games rather than digging for new insight. To conclude, even though the negative impact lies on the use of

computers

for

students

, causing them to be inactive from following the class. I highly believe that it can be reduced by a supportive teacher, being able to direct them to take advantage of obtaining new insight with ease.
