Some of today's schools insist that all students have their own computer in class to assist in their education Do you feel that this would be an advantage to students' education or would it be an unnecessary complication?

Several schools around the world insist that all

students

should bring their own private computer to

class

to assist in their education. Technology has become a significant component of educating children and is considered beneficial in many ways.

Nonetheless

, there are

likewise

many disadvantages to using private technological equipment in classrooms. Bringing a private laptop to

class

offers a variety of benefits for

students

.

Firstly

,

laptops

can be used to take notes in classes where teachers sometimes speak at a high speed. Many children find that they can type faster than they can write by hand and

therefore

prefer typing their notes in

class

so as to not miss any important information. Teachers could

furthermore

make use of learning programs and websites during

class

, as

students

would have the possibility of using these websites on their private

laptops

.

Moreover

,

students

can use periods meant for working on assignments effectively, because they can work on their assignments digitally right away and not have to type up handmade notes later on. Information can

additionally

be distributed more easily to

students

, as

for example

hand-outs can simply be emailed or shared electronically and do not have to be printed.

Although

bringing private

laptops

to

class

offers these various advantages, it

also

creates several disadvantages.

Laptops

firstly

are fairly expensive, meaning that families with more than one child will have to spend a large amount of money to purchase

laptops

for all their children.

Furthermore

,

laptops

can easily be damaged during

class

and outside of

class

as well as stolen, which could create future costs for families. During
